Has anyone ever seen this Al Pacino film? John Forsythe
plays the corrupt judge and Hank from Larry Sanders plays
the lawyer that goes loopy. I haven't heard anyone else
talking about it but I think it is one of Pacino's strongest
performances, especially his speech at the end. A superb
film.

No but I've seen the one with Russell Crowe and Al Pacino,
about the whistle blower

No, this is one of the Pacino films when he was in his
acting prime. It must have been late 70's or something. It's
not one of the hollywood crapbusters like Any given sunday
or The insider. It's in my opinion, one of the finest films
ever, yet i never hear anyone else talking about it. Am i
just too trendy for everyone or is it something else?

You are too trendy but the Insider is a good film. Insomnia
was pretty crap though.

It's always on sky cinema and I want to see it, but it's on

I've never heard of it, to be honest.

I thought The Insider was great though, I pretty much like
anything with Pacino in.

Was it? I heard it was a return to form (of sorts). I think
you're just slating it because it was critically acclaimed,
but you wouldn't do something like that would you? I loved
memento and I think it's by the same director. That's
another classic film, memento. It quite literally changed
the way I watched movies forever. I now watch them standing
on my head.

No, no. It was very average.

Pacino's best was Scent of a Woman. "Wooo-haa!"

was he any good in the score?
i still havent watch that one, perhaps i will today
i quite like norton, but if deniro and brando are in the
same movie, it should be pretty good

I watched The Score with very low expectations and quite
enjoyed it. Nice twist at the end that should have been
predictable but never occured to me.

I'm a bit slow you see :P

than ronin)
