Miami Beau Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) https://amp.theguardian.com/film/2022/jul/07/the-godfather-star-james-caan-dies-aged-82 Just found out the sad news of James Cann. Best known for his role in The Godfather, James also appeared in Michael Mann’s first ever movie “Thief”. It really is a classic and shows the true genius of Mann. Also starring Dennis Farina, John Santucci and Willie Nelson, highly recommend for all Miami Vice fans. RIP James.

RedDragon86 Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) R.I.P Jimmy He once spoke in an interview saying that his performance in "Thief" was the best of his career. In the film commentary with Michael he also said that the café scene with Tuesday Weld was the best piece of acting he ever did. God bless.

Dadrian Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) I’ve seen all his major films, but I have small kids, so I’ve seen Elf more than any of them. Legend, nonetheless. RIP Edited July 7, 2022 by Dadrian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicefan7777 Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 When I think of James Cann the first film that comes to my mind is the classic Thief. Absolutely brilliant performance. Also the film The Godfather. His bloody death scene will always be remembered. Thank you Sir for sharing your acting talents with us. RIP.

Tony D. Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 I loved him in "The Godfather" but I loved the movie "Brian's Song"...Rest in Peace, James Cann! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpaul1 Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 yup except it's Caan , not Cann lol . this being said i discovered that actor with rollerball. which is for me one of the best movies ever made. and i have also to admit that i never came across thief. which makes me feel a little bit ashamed, regarding all the comments onto these forums. yep like the other one says, there are two things you can be sure in life. it's that you'll have to pay taxes, and that death will get you soon or later.
