Robert De Niro is a famous actor.  He is also a producer and director.  Do you know much about him?
I don't have a clue who that is. Could you tell me about some movies that he has played in?
He was born in 1943.  In 1974, he played the part of the young Vito Corleone in the 1974, The Godfather, Part II.  
Oh, I've at least heard of that movie even though I have never seen it. What about films that he produced or directed? 
Another movie, if you've seen it; he played in the famous 1980 film "Raging Bull."  He played the part of Jake LaMotta.
