Lifetime Achievement: John Cazale

An Italian-American, Cazale only made five films in his career, all which many fans and critics alike call classics. But before his film debut, he won numerous Obie Awards for his stage performances in The Indian Wants the Bronx and The Line.

Cazale scored the role of Fredo Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather (1972), after his long time friend Al Pacino invited him to audition. He reprised his role as the troubled Corleone in The Godfather Part II (1974), where his character endures one of the most infamous movie moments in the history of cinema.

Cazale also starred with Gene Hackman and Harrison Ford in the thriller, The Conversation (1974), as Hackman's assistant, Stan. The Godfather's director, Francis Ford Coppola, also directed the movie.

Cazale's fourth film, Dog Day Afternoon (1975), earned him a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Sal, a bank robber. His long time friend and Godfather co-star, Al Pacino, played his partner, Sonny.

His final film, The Deer Hunter (1978), was filmed whilst he was ill with cancer. He met co-star Meryl Streep whilst filming The Deer Hunter and they became engaged.

Controversy occurred during the filming. While the studio was unaware of his condition, the director, Michael Cimino knew about it. As Cazale was evidently weak, he was forced to film his scenes first. When the studio discovered he was suffering from bone cancer, they wanted him removed from the film. His co-star and fiancé Meryl Streep threatened to quit if he was fired. He died shortly after filming was completed.



Something not made clear enough by the imdb writer: All five films Cazale appeared in were nominated for Best Picture. Three won the award. Now that's achievement!

BTW: It's not "Sir" Anthony Hopkins anymore. Tricky Dick was expected to drop the title in order to become an American citizen. He said at the time words to the effect of "it never meant anything to me anyway."

[Lord Aquaman]

Isn't Leo a little young to be getting a life time achievement award?

[srmoore]

Maybe it is a hint to have him stop making movies?

(I actually like his acting in some films... But yeah he seems a little young to get this)

[Helena]

So come on, Hannibal, aren't you going to explain to us why DiCaprio is a Nazi?

(Sorry. I couldn't resist. )

[Hannibal]

He's not a Nazi, but he is a Freemason: (Which might explain it to the intelligent people of this forum)

http://www.geocities...eml030198a.html

There used to be a photo of Leo showing off his Masonic ring, but it has since been pulled.

"For the Jack Dawson role, Cameron had chose Leonardo Dicaprio, who is a Freemason. He had admittedto being a Mason in a 1995 German television interview. When the reporter had pressed for further details, Leo became uncomfortable and abruptly ended the interview. This was because he¹s been followed by members of the Son¹s of Belial faction and they¹ve intimidated him into silence."

Several key scenes in the movie Total Eclipse, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, are actually depictions of special masonic rituals that Leonardo DiCaprio performed in real life upon turning 21, and being initiated as a Master Mason of the first three degrees!!! Coincidence Theorists might have been safe ruling these scenes all a big coincidence if a German television network hadn't captured DiCaprio on tape admitting to being a Freemason.

This little gem nicely illustrates a few things...

The sort of symbolic, non-verbal communication that these secret society members use to communicate with each other.

How stupid they think the general public is... It's amazing that they thought we would never catch on to their little inside jokes flaunted so blantatly on the big screen.

That masonic influence exists deep within the film industry.

[Helena]

Ah, a Freemason. Well, I suppose that's better than nothing.
