Many Choices, but went with Michael Corleone. Scarface close behind
this x infinity.Maybe should have been Tony, but I hate that movie outside of the comedy value so much I couldn't vote for it.
Fly pelican fly!Went with Michael. Maybe should have been Tony, but I hate that movie outside of the comedy value so much I couldn't vote for it.
This really is a two horse race.Many Choices, but went with Michael Corleone. Scarface close behind
which he was so low key in ... put the HAM on the shelf, and was chewed up by Penn in every scene - great flick, understated Al ... i much prefer it over "Scarface", and it ain't even close.Also really liked him the kinda scarface sequel by de Palma as carlito brigante
yes that movie rockedwhich he was so low key in ... put the HAM on the shelf, and was chewed up by Penn in every scene - great flick, understated Al ... i much prefer it over "Scarface", and it ain't even close.
Same for meMany Choices, but went with Michael Corleone. Scarface close behind
great call ... how that got Left out in favor of Big Boy is an egregious oversight.The Donnie Brasco role was awesome. Not his signature role but should ahve made the list.
When he takes off his rings at home and his money clip and St Christopher medallion. What a scene.great call ... how that got Left out in favor of Big Boy is an egregious oversight.
"hey, Annette, ya know what ... don't wait up for me - who knows with these people, huh? you look beautiful tonight"When he takes off his rings at home and his money clip and St Christopher medallion. What a scene.
I am probably one of the few who also loved his role as John Milton, but I would never call this his "signature".Scarface because of the movie that it is. But his own best acting job was in Scent of a Woman.
Yup. Thought he was really good in the insider. Very good movie.The Donnie Brasco role was awesome. Not his signature role but should ahve made the list.
I have had this sneaking suspicion -- feeling -- based upon evidentiary clues that you're secretly David Mamet, and this has done nothing to disprove my thesis.otb_lifer said:this x infinity.
though i cast the (thus far) lone vote for Richard Roma 'cuz Glengarry ####### owns me - my favorite flick of all-time.
well, we have never been seen in the same ####### room together, so you got that goin' for your ####### feeling - and i'll just ####### leave it at that ...I have had this sneaking suspicion -- feeling -- based upon evidentiary clues that you're secretly David Mamet, and this has done nothing to disprove my thesis.
It is, most assuredly, a working paper.well, we have never been seen in the same room together, so you got that goin' for your feeling - and i'll ####### leave it at that ...
This is fantastic, wikkid. I can only imagine how awesome it must have been to be seeing some unknown actor as good as Al Pacino (!!!) live in a theater, not to mention tracking the dude later as he became a megaginormous success. Top-notch stuff! So great that you got to see Zero Mostel, too.wikkidpissah said:Pavlo Hummel
I had the great good fortune to see him in The Basic Training of Pavlo Hummel onstage in Boston, just as Godfather was coming out. He played half-squirrelbaby and half-YOURALLOUTOFORDER!! throughout and everyone was mesmerized. Next to Zero as Tevya, my greatest theater experience.
Yeah, it was great. None of my doing, but it was great.This is fantastic, wikkid.

If I ever spot DM at a betting window I will confirm it for you.I have had this sneaking suspicion -- feeling -- based upon evidentiary clues that you're secretly David Mamet, and this has done nothing to disprove my thesis.
I think this is kind of why I voted for Tony while enjoying him more as Michael. Pacino took some element of Tony with him to so many roles that the character became synonymous with the actor.Pacino's signature role is playing Al Pacino.
