Possibly the greatest actor of all time in Western culture.
Has won only one Academy Award, the following list is the films he should have won an Oscar for:
The Godfather
Serpico
The Godfather Part II
Dog Day Afternoon
...And Justice for All
Scarface
Carlito's Way
Should have gotten a nom for The Devil's Advocate and Heat.
Now, the following is a list of actors who won instead of Pacino and their films:
Joel Grey for Cabaret ( Give me a break )
Jack Lemmon for Save The Tiger ( Stewie Griffin Laugh )
Art Carney for Harry and Tonto ( A man and his cat....WTF? )
Jack Nicholson for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest ( understandable )
Dustin Hoffman for Kramer vs Kramer ( AHAHAHAHA, BS! )
Robert Duvall for
Tender Mercies ( This beat Scarface...how? )
Tom Hanks for Philadelphia ( Right.....yeaaaaaah )
There's only one word to describe
Pacino's lack of Academy Awards, Pure Hollywood Bullshit.
" Al
Pacino Is The Greatest Actor Who Ever Lived! "
" Pacino kicks the crap out of everybody "
" Pacino has managed to perfect the role of an
Honest Cop, a Gangster, a Lawyer with a conscience, a
Drug Lord, A Theif and a Mafia Boss. For this, he deserves respect, a shit load of respect. "
