FROM THE ARCHIVES

John Cazale as Sal by Greg Condon

Elton John: Amoreena

Original air date 1/23/07. Prompted by a recent screening of Dog Day Afternoon and a new documentary on John Cazale. A great movie, especially gratifying to see with an audience on a July night in Brooklyn.

And here is the brilliant opening montage.

Luke, Thanks for the link. I was wondering about the real Sonny. The new documentary about Cazale is unfortunately not very good - but that clip is pretty fascinating.

thank you very much for posting this.

i liked it so much i bought the album, and it's even better than i expected.

now i'm thinking that i probably overlooked a lot of quality ej music b/c i came of age after he went over the top with the glasses, costumes, etc.

thanks again.
