His kid is quickly aging into the same look. Maybe he can be trained to make faces.

James Caan never got the recognition he deserved for playing Sonny in the Godfather because there were other great actors in that movie.

His acting was just as good as Pacino's, Brando's and Duvall's in that film. He was nominated for best supporting actor for the Godfather.

"Badda-beep, badda-bap, badda-boop, badda-beep, he wants us to send Michael to hear the proposition, and the promise is the deal is so good we can't refuse."

I liked him in Misery, too.

How do you not get recognition yet get nominated for an Academy Award?

People never talk about how good Caan was in discussing the film. They always talk about Pacino or Brando, but not him.

The Gambler is another good film of Caan's with Paul Sorvino also starring. Forget Mark Wahlberg.

Haven't you guys seen the original "Brian's Song"? Probably a top 5 film for him.

Nobody talks about that.

Yep, Brian's Song.

I love, James Caan. And, tonight, with hitching knees, please ask God to love him too.

He was able to take that character and develop it into a comedic character in a few other movies like Mickey Blue Eyes and Honeymoon in Vegas
