James Caan

He earned a great reputation as a tough guy actor. We all remember him as Santino Corleone in "The Godfather". There was another role considered just as strong: That was as the late Brian Piccolo in "Brian's Song". So many other parts in films made him quite famous. Unfortunately, at 82 years, he has left us. For many future generations his talent will be seen. He has become immortal on the big movie screen. James Caan (1940-2022)

I was a huge fan watching Brian’s Song as a young kid. Sappy, yes, but I loved that book and Gail Sayers’ I am third
