As an aside, did you know that John Cazale, who played Fredo, was only in 5 movies before he died and that 3 of those 5 were best picture award winners?

The three were, The Godfather, the Godfather 2 and The Deer hunter. It’s an interesting bit of trivia.

He was dating Meryl Streep when he was sick with Cancer.

Indeed Pacino said Cazale was one of his favorite actors. Dog Day Afternoon was great, too. Died too early.

One fun fact : he was from Massachusetts and his accent comes right out on "SMAHT!"
