The STREAM Scene Where all the top choices can be found in one place! 10 • Terre Haute Tribune-Star • October 9 - 15, 2022 BEST JAMES CAAN MOVIES "Brian's Song" (TV, 1971) After years of reliable supporting work, Caan began to step into stardom as Brian Piccolo, the Chicago Bears running back whose illness cemented his friendship with teammate Gale Sayers (Billy Dee Williams). "The Godfather" (1972) Well, of course. Who can forget hotheaded mob son Sonny Corleone's exit? No spoilers here, but if you haven't seen this truly iconic film yet, do so. Now. "Slither" (1973) Caan is amusing as a paroled thief whose intention to go straight doesn't last very long. Turner Classic Movies shows the film Wednesday, Oct. 12. "Cinderella Liberty" (1973) In his first teaming with Marsha Mason, Caan gives a wonderfully sensitive performance as a Navy man involved with a prostitute while he's on forced leave. "The Gambler" (1974) This excellent character study casts Caan as a college professor who has a gambling addiction. "Freebie and the Bean" (1974) Caan and Alan Arkin display terrific teamwork as San Francisco police partners trying to keep a mob boss from being targeted in a hit. "Rollerball" (1975) As a very physical athlete of few words, Caan is ideal casting as Jonathan E., the bigger-than-he-was-meant- to-be star of a futuristic sport. "The Killer Elite" (1975) Reteamed (by director Sam Peckinpah) with "Godfather" co-star Robert Duvall, Caan is terrific as a betrayed private-security man out for revenge. "Chapter Two" (1979) Reuniting with actress Mason, Caan has a tough job – playing morose, and also essentially playing Mason's husband at the time, playwright Neil Simon – and fulfills it extremely well. "Hide in Plain Sight" (1980) Caan works both sides of the camera effectively, directing as well as starring in the true story of a man trying to locate his ex-wife and children. "Thief" (1981) Helping director Michael Mann establish the style he's so known for now, Caan is top-notch as the title crook out for one last, giant score. "Gardens of Stone" (1987) Teamed again with director Coppola, Caan is excellent in this underrated drama about an Army sergeant looking out for untested soldiers on their way to the Vietnam War. "Alien Nation" (1988) Caan and Mandy Patinkin make highly interesting co-stars as a policeman and his alien partner. "Misery" (1990) Kathy Bates may have the showier role (which her Oscar win confirmed) as a novelist's obsessed fan, but without Caan's work as her victim, the Stephen King story wouldn't have the balance it needs. "Honeymoon in Vegas" (1992) Caan's personality is perfect for the gambler who orchestrates a weekend with an the fiancee (Sarah Jessica Parker) of an opponent (Nicolas Cage).
