Somebody’s Watching You
The Conversation by Francis Ford Coppola has been showing at Film Forum recently and though I’ve seen it a couple of times I decided to revisit the seventies classic. It didn’t disappoint.
Harry Caul is a surveillance expert, one of the best in the business, and is asked to follow a young couple meeting in San Francisco park. It soon becomes apparent to Caul that there is something vaguely…
“I sometimes wonder if the inability to find oneself makes one seek oneself in other people, in characters.”
The graceful and masterly chameleon John Cazale, pictured here with Meryl Streep and in three of his greatest roles in The Godfather Part II,The Conversation, and Dog Day Afternoon, passed away on this day at the age of 42 in 1978.
Cazale only made five movies in his lifetime (all of them Best Picture nominees), but each one is as singular and indelible as the talent of this underappreciated genius who was taken from this world far too soon. ❤️
