IN the spacious den of James Caan’s home here, high above Los Angeles near the upper reaches of Benedict Canyon Drive, there’s not much evidence of his long career in the movies. A poster for “Rollerball” — a film he considers under-appreciated — hangs above a couch; nearby is an oil painting of a boxing match in bright primary colors, signed “Sylvester Stallone.”Mr. Caan does own an exceedingly cool poster for “The Godfather,” the film that made him famous him at 32; designed for the Italian release, it reads “Il Padrino” in the familiar blocky lettering. To see it you need to walk out of the den, make a left and go into the guest bathroom, where it hangs above the sink.
