A lovely homage to the late star of only five films but the films he chose to act in were Godfather 1 and 2, Dog Day Afternoon, The Conversation and The Deer Hunter which is quite remarkable. "I Knew It Was You" chronicles his life in testimonies from almost every actor and director of note he ever worked with to his closest friends and family.

My only concern was that as an homage it never looks towards the negative aspects of his life, especially the concerns of his looks keeping him from other parts and typecasting which has always been associated with Cazale.

Still, this is a charming film which should hopefully help people understand the life behind one of America's finest yet all to brief acting talents.
