When James Caan recently died, his role as Sonny Corleone in "The Godfather" (1972) was cited as the actor's most famous performance. HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano agree that it was the kind of mobster role at which this tough guy actor excelled. So they devote much of this podcast episode to talking about "The Godfather," but they also discuss Caan's memorable roles in "Brian's Song" (1970), "Thief" (1981), "Misery" (1990), "Honeymoon in Vegas" (1992) and "Elf" (2003).
