I can't think of one post-70's movie of his that has really lived up to his potential. They just don't make Al Pacino films any more I guess.Strolling Amokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15931209395206733161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044859131970603127.post-64133298122415333412008-04-20T19:26:00.000-07:002008-04-20T19:26:00.000-07:00Not to sound gay or anything, but I'm usually anno...Not to sound gay or anything, but I'm usually annoyed when they throw a romance into a perfectly good action/war/western movie- especially sex scenes. As with violence, they're usually just there to make up for plot weaknesses. I'd like to go back to Greek Drama at least as far as keeping sex and violence off the stage and showcasing the plot as the source of entertainment. Al Pacino would be even more stellar as Agamemnon in the Orestes series.tullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01197709180292694356noreply@blogger.com
