Qui va sortir amb Meryl Streep?

John Cazale (Revere, Massachusetts, 12 d'agost de 1935 − Nova York, 12 de març de 1978) va ser un actor de cinema i teatre estatunidenc. Nominat al Globus d'Or, la seva curta carrera inclou cinc pel·lícules molt reeixides com les dues primeres pel·lícules d'El padrí, totes aquestes van ser nominades com a millor pel·lícula en els Oscars (les altres tres són La conversa, Tarda negra i El caçador).

Des dels seus inicis com a actor de teatre, es va transformar en un dels actors secundaris favorits de Hollywood, començant amb El padrí de Coppola, en què interpreta Fredo, el feble germà Corleone. "Cazale va trencar cors amb personificacions d'homes volàtils, vulnerables i vacil·lants, incloent-hi el company de Pacino en el tràgic robatori en Tarda negra", va escriure David Germain d'Associated Press, que el descriu com un actor "l'intens rostre del qual és conegut per aquells seriosos fanàtics del cinema, però el seu nom sovint és oblidat". En la seva última pel·lícula, El caçador, Cazale va prendre la decisió de continuar actuant malgrat haver-se-li diagnosticat càncer de pulmó, i va morir poc després d'haver completat el seu paper. Tenia 42 anys.

Cazale va ser descrit com d'"un increïble intel·lecte, una persona extraordinària i un molt bon i dedicat artista" per Joseph Papp, productor del New York Shakespeare Festival. Un documental i tribut sobre Cazale, titulat I Knew It Was You, va ser projectat en el Festival de cinema de Sundance del 2009 i conté entrevistes a actors de la talla d'Al Pacino, Meryl Streep, Robert De Niro, Gene Hackman, Richard Dreyfuss, Francis Ford Coppola i Sidney Lumet, entre d'altres.
