This is probably the 5th or 6th time. Each time I pick up on a nuance I missed during previous screenings. Riveting is all I can say. 

The story goes that the producers did not want John Cazale, who was dying of lung cancer in the movie. Robert De Niro threatened to quit if Cazale didn’t finish the movie. John Cazale finished it and died in March of 1978. 

I was fourteen when it came out. I didn’t fully understand its greatness until I was in my 30’s.
