You always knew Pacino was acting, except for the Godfather where Coppola told him to tone it down.

Fredo is LITERALLY CHRIS CUOMO...CUOMO IS A PUNK AZZ🤮

This channel couldn’t convert high view counts into subs because the voiceover work is so poor, it sounds like an AI using audacity tools to try and cover all their natural quirks. It is grating, unnatural, almost robot like and will never make viewers want to watch the next video. Such an easy problem to solve if you make the effort

Respect🙏

That's a Very kind thing for You to do, 👍

Very impressive, Thanx.

How did he die

I am buried near there too

Fredo

Fettuccine

@@gregbors8364 Actually, “Frederico”.

@@gregbors8364 That’s a saucy claim!

*Alfred n the Fettuc

Practically every other actor was nominated for that movie lol De Niro Gazzo Strasburg

"THAT'S NOT THE WAY I WANTED IT!!"

Agreed

That chair in Part Two.("I'M SMART!") John's idea. He told Francis "It'll make Fredo look like a spineless jellyfish." It worked, BEAUTIFULLY.

The Godfather part II and Dog Day Afternoon, which also happen to be the greatest performances from Al Pacino.

I strongly recommend you watch The Conversation.

The conversation is a great movie. Last frame is surreal

@@briancox9357 One of my favorite movies. He and Hackman, and the whole cast were outstanding.

If you are a fan of Gene Hackman, then you must see "The Conversation" and "Night Moves". Both are powerful----and unsettling.

@@philiphatfield5666 two of the greatest movies ever made

To be fair, he robbed himself. Cigarettes kill, unfortunately. Incredible actor.

@@PapagenoMF Yep sometimes there is a price for looking cool.

Both of you judging someone without knowing them, you'll both go far in life i can tell

@@stellviahohenheim Did you just do the same thing you accused others of doing. You speak buffoonery fluently

George Burns “smoking kills”

Yeah I thought he was gonna talk about him in his dream or something then he just trails off like he's deciding to keep it to himself.

I believe they were roommates when they were both young struggling actors in NYC. That was so touching.

Pacino is to old and jaded to tear up, which makes his show of emotion even more poignant

In DOG DAY AFTERNOON, you forget that PACINO and CAZALE played brothers in the greatest movies of all-time. That's great acting.

In real life John Cazale and Meryl Streep were dating when they made The Deer Hunter. He died while they were a couple, if he lived they probably would of been married.

Agreed, totally.

Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, and Francis Ford Coppella should lobby the Academy vigorously to posthumously award John Cazale an honorary Oscar.

It is so late in the game now that it really does not matter. Robert Mitchum, Glenn Ford, Thelma Ritter, Glenn Close, and others, didn't get an Oscar either!

Jackie Chan is a cool dude but he never deserved an Oscar for acting.

​@@JimTheCuratorCazale is no less an actor than Deniro who plays himself all the time as well

Yes, Fredo felt despised but maybe he shouldn't, Michael was just trying to protect him.

Basically, all of Cazale's roles he played the outcast.

Yeah, he was especially great in that scene when he's banging cocktail waitresses, two at the time, while players can't get a drink at the table.

Beta males relate to fredo lol

@@LouieOcean2 good point!

Beautifully said..👌🏾

If memory serves me correctly, Fredo betrayed Michael to Johnny Ola and Roth for some undisclosed reward. That's why he received the kiss of death from Michael after he drunkenly slipped out that he met Roth, inadvertently admitting that he lied to Michael's face when Fredo told him that he hadn't. Less sympathy for Fredo there, personally. Despite Fredo's betrayal, Michael's hands will never be clean. He still has to deal with the fact that he killed one of his own brothers. It's difficult to say whether or not their father really wouldn't have "dealt" with a family traitor in the same way that Michael did.

I watched both so many tomes I forgot to count and John Cazal was a damn good actor. Damn good

He helped in an assassination attempt on Michael

His death re-shaped Michael. It could’ve been a throwaway role, but the casting of Cazale changed it.

What? Nobody missed Fredo the idiot.

I disagree re: Tom. He was keenly missed, but other than that I’m with you.

He was a wonderful actor. But saying that those actors or characters weren't had the same presence is foolish. Tom and Vito especially.

very well said. fredo's death was the most impactful of all.

It's a brilliant moment. Apparently, that chair just happened to be on set, and Cazale realized how perfectly suited to his character it's low back and bounciness were

This is one of my all-time favorite acting moments ... I was literally just now lying in bed after a night of insomnia, thinking about this scene. I remember being blown away the first time I saw it. Every actor I've known would have been up, pacing, aggressive, chewing the scenery. He was so brilliant.

That’s scene was an Oscar worthy performance.

The chair is "unstable" and weak...brilliant

I can't focus on anything other than Cazale's hairline during that scene...

Well said

@@brickwallpictures you seriously think dog day afternoon is even good? It’s a horrible comedy about two homosexuals that attempt to rob a bank for a sex change operation. All of it true too. Great actors yes. Shit movie plot.

@@dominicvega9267 Do you know what subjectivity is?

@@dominicvega9267 bro you realise it's a movie on true story? "shit movie plot" have pretense to life then lmao

@@czwarty7878 it’s about gay dudes bro

Im 62 yrs old now. Starting from when i was in middle school my parents grudgingly let me go see grown up movies. I wrote almost the same thing. See my comment above.

The Big Libowski!

I agree! ❤️❤️

I wonder if some like him and Heath Ledger come into the world to briefly share their brilliance, before departing back to heaven.

@@wambam4546 The brevity of life is true for all. But nobody goes to heaven, let alone "back to heaven". Nor did their brilliance exist before they entered the world, because they didn't exist then.

@@jimnewcombe7584 typical atheist coming to ruin the mood, and I say this as an atheist

@@shako4907 If the statement of plain facts upsets people then let them be upset. And, for the record, I'm not an atheist. People with placards saying the "end is nigh" and shouting at "sinners" through megaphones, these are people who are "ruining the mood". "Jesus loves you" they say, though I'm perplexed how a man nailed to a piece of wood 20 centuries ago can love me in any sense.

Same. Have seen all these movies and you're right about how he's so good he disappears. Will go back and rewatch. Thanks for your respect and integrity in this...The world needs more of you.

Great actor gone too soon🙏

I think the best compliment an actor can get is to be called a Chameleon.

All 5 films he acted in were arguably 5/5 - A perfect filmography, albeit brief. If he had lived another 30 years he would be up there with there with the best.

Her only class act ever, lol.

I gave my ex wife five examples of me in the form of kids and they all turned out to be duds. I was firing the BS then. By firing I mean I should have wiped those off my knuckles and gave another specimen that was a lot better

He was great in both Godfather movies, but you are so right about Dog Day. His ability to not be 'just' Fredo was amazing.

That was incredibly well said an so creatively thoughtful, thank you

Yep, something I didn’t know that I needed and wanted to know.

YES!

Duvall has always been that boring mentor in every family that speaks a lot of wisdom, but sadly, no one follows the advice because he's so damn boring, lol

I always found that scene hilarious, whether it means to be or not.

😂😅❤

What kind of parents did you have letting you watch those movies before 11? 😂

@@barry4649 I was different. I was making movie shorts as a kid, trying to write scripts for my friends so at 11 I was breaking down characters and plots and stuff. They figured it was better letting me watch these films than going out and joining gangs or something. Of course they were also just lazy crappy parents so.... Lazy crappy parents? The world isn't peaches friend.

@@barry4649 oh gosh. As a kid of the seventies, we weren't watched over like hawks, ran around the town and country before 11 and watched whatever we felt like....movies would play on the tv and we would get engrossed until realizing it was The Exorcist or Carrie...or Star Wars. ..into the 80s. We would be horrified and not sleep for weeks or just laugh it off as not real. Parents would get upset but it would be too late. On Thanksgiving each year the network would play DELIVERANCE on our main station. The first time we all thought it was a Thanksgiving movie...."Deliverance from evil...etc." And then the rape scene went by and none of us knew what it meant. Parents would say, "Don't worry it's not real. It's just a movie." Parental guidance back then for all of us was, "Don't worry, it's just a movie. It's not real." That was the extent of the parental guidance. We survived. Mostly. Lots of nightmares. And then more education came about with ratings and such. Many people just don't know the effects of tv other than it may scare you or give you bad dreams. Sadly. Tvs would just be in the basement or be used to babysit us and we would just watch whatever. Our tvs were still black and white and mostly fuzzy. So we could barely tell what was happening. We had to hold the antenna to get better reception. Our tvs were not high definition. I think we got colour in the late 70s or so. Anyways, as time went on more education helped. In fact, Friday night was horror night and parents would give us popcorn, pizza, and pop to watch Squirm or Food of the Gods...etc. It was for fun! Around 11 years old for sure or younger even. Cheers.

@@randymulder9105 yeah theres some cool stuff about newer generations like tolerance and acceptance but they do seem a little more soft

@@ammagnolia it's interesting. I agree. I think a lot of us are saying. Ok. We can radically accept others. Got it. We can be your friend and still maybe not understand your ideas or personhood totally. We can at least observe and listen and try to understand each other. If not. At least be respectful. But. Once we got that squared away. Why are people so soft? Many people are asking the same questions from all sides. Acceptance doesn't mean you can't JOKE, have fun, or be less serious. Some people from all sides just want to laugh again and maybe even make fun of each other again in a polite way or even a dark way. Are people ready for comedians or whatever to "cross the line"? I think a lot of people don't care. They just get upset if a specific person in the audience was targeted. And the joke drags out on hurting them directly. The issue is....that's where a lot of comedy gold exists. Lol. We all have a button they can push too far. Lol. Sometimes people find it funny to watch someone get all upset in the audience. But, I think comedians will figure it out and bring back a whole new line of work. It's happening already. Anyways. Talking is better than fighting. People just gotta talk it over. Or they are not meant for comedy halls. Comedy is a special, magical thing to witness. And then you go home and think about why the comedian "got you thinking". They are usually planning quite the intelligent trip. And showing the world what they sound and look like on the daily. Lol.
