Do you know Joe Grifasi?

Joe Grifasi and Meryl Streep have made 4 films together - 'The Deer Hunter' (1978), 'Still Of The Night' (1982), 'Ironweed' (1987) and 'Dark Matter' (2007).

In the 1970s, they appeared together in a Yale Drama School production of William Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream', a young stage performer sharing her dream with a grizzled senior. I think they first worked together on screen in Peter Levin's 'Secret Service' (1977), commissioned as part of the 'Great Performances' series.
