- 'The Godfather: Part II' (1974) Director: Francis Ford Coppola. In The Godfather: Part II, both Brando and Caan’s characters have exited the saga (the former relatively peacefully, and the latter violently), meaning that both Al Pacino as Michael and John Cazale as Fredo get even more to do here than they had before.
- 'The Godfather' (1972) Director: Francis Ford Coppola. Beyond being an early role for Al Pacino, the first Godfather is also notable for starring the likes of Marlon Brando, James Caan, Robert Duvall, and Diane Keaton.

- 'The Deer Hunter' (1978) Director: Michael Cimino. Like The Conversation, The Deer Hunter is another great movie featuring John Cazale as one part of a remarkable cast.
