@@larryandmary1 I feel like they should have either gave Al Pacino an Oscar for Dog Day and then Nicholson for Chinatown. Or give Al Pacino for Godfather Part 2 and Jack Nicholson for One who flew over the Cuckoo’s nest. But it’s a federal crime to not give Al an Oscar for Dog Day or Godfather.
He was introspective, soulful, and soft-spoken. When he tried to become a tough growling macho lead, he lost it. He used to speak with his eyes and then his eyes went dead. It's sad how Hollywood grinds people down, men included.
One of his most underrated performance's. I think the scene where the lady's on a call to her husband and she asks Pacino what time they'll be done and he drops his head in disbelief then says "Oh girly please." Should've been included.
Honestly this movie is what made me get a massive crush on young Al Pacino. He was ridiculously handsome and captivating in this film I couldn't take my eyes off him. 😍
Amazing compilation, also make one of emotional scenes too. Include the best scene. Imo, the best, emotionally deepest scene, is when he is talking to Leon. He says: "I don't know. Life's so funny." Its exactly those five-ten minutes around that; one of the best goddamn scenes in cinema history. Also, the scene when Sonny tells his mother to stay away from him and tries to leave, and his mother recalls him as a baby. And every person in his life is just breaking him apart bit by bit, and everythings breathing down on his neck. The movie's a beautiful portrait of Sonny, i cant comment on whether its historically correct/incorrect or morally right or wrong. But goddammit its moving if you're watching it carefully.
Al Pacino was the most handsome man in his prime. Omggg look at his face lord lord lord. But I love when Sonny ask for some beers 😂😂like what sir why would the cops give y’all beer
..I like when he finds the blond teller hiding under the desk...“what? we got a squirrel here?”...one of his greatest performances but he’s got so damn many.
"I'm not a homosexual. You tell them to get that right. It's going out on TV." My dad told me to watch this 20 years ago. I'm still laughing my guts out with this masterpiece.
Al Pacino and John Cazale were brilliant as the floundering bank robbers. And Charles Durning gave a superbly realistic performance as the harassed cop, Moretti, trying to keep the situation under control. Sidney Lumet certainly picked exactly the right actors for this film. An all-time favourite of mine.
0:23 " ... and you never know if someone hid a gun in there!" Still getting mileage out of "Attica, Attica" and "Kiss me." Anybody catch what appeared to be a nod to the latter in the South Park episode with the HumancentiPad? Cartman asks his mother for lipstick because he wants to look pretty ... and you know the rest.
Very brave of Al Pacino to take on a gay role in the 70s. Homosexuality had just been depathologized by the American Psychology Association (until a year or two before it was considered a disease). John Wojtawisc, the real-life criminal was not nearly as sweet and altruistic and paying for his boyfriend's surgery was not the real motive behind the heist. But Al Pacino makes it impossible to not root for Sonny. I feel that after this role he overcompensated by playing growling macho leads. He was never the same beautiful, soulful Al again.
I've heard so much about this movie and I am going to make it my business to watch this. I had no idea that Michael and Fredo Corleone did stick-ups together. Chris Sarandon was in this too?!
i forgot the real story. Wasn't Pacino's character trying to get money to pay for his partner's sex change surgery? or was i too high and misinformed decades ago

I know old folks like to whine about the good ole days - but I'm telling you, movies today are pathetic compared to the films of the 70s. What an Era 💥❤
There's plenty of great movies and music released today. You're just not looking in the right place. There were terrible movies released back then, too. The difference is the sheer quantity today. Back then, you might get one or two movies released a week. Now? 10-20. As such, there's going to be a lot of stinkers. You just have to look in the right place.

@@jamiecaldwell4043 In the 2010’s: a couple Nolan movies, a few PT Anderson movies, some Haneke and von Trier movies, late Scorcese and Carax movies, Schrader’s First Reformed, Barry Jenkins’ Moonlight, most of Lucretia Martel’s Zama, Bacurao, Agnes Varda’s late works, some people like Ashgar Faradi, Get Out, the end of the Before Trilogy, and more I havent seen like Roma, or Parasite (& other Korean cinema). I thought Judas & the Black Messiah conjured a lot of the same tension as dramas on your list. Things change, and this generation presumably has its own Star Wars and Grease (perhaps Black Panther and La La Land 🤷🏻♀️) or immersive scifi like Gravity or Interstellar (🤷🏻♀️)…as for the 70’s yes a lot looks great on film, my fav director Fassbinder is there, the pre- or proto- blockbuster era was a good mix of old & new Hollywood, & as pointed out above there was also a lot of 70’s trash…I’d agree in the sense that cinemas role (& independent budgets) diminished but the entire global generation of current filmmakers cant be dismissed. (Have to add I found Deerhunter to be comically bad but I do love Heaven’s Gate!)
@@jamiecaldwell4043Not forgetting Marathon Man and Get Carter. Splendid performance from Dustin Hoffman and Michael Caine was at his very very best as the well dressed London gangster. As you say, the list goes on. Too many outstanding films in the 1970s to mention.
Al Pacino is devastatingly handsome
Best-looking man I've ever seen in my life!
frrrrrr he was so fine
You like older dudes dontcha?
@@medalgearsalad1419 hell yeah. hes not hot anymore since hes 82 years old now but hes still so charming and an amazing person
Pacino at his absolute peak. This is his best performance in my opinion.
Definitely one of his best. This movie has become one of my favorites
This next to Serpico are amazing
Come on, the guy pretended to be Cuban, and he nailed it. That was his best performance (in my opinion)
@@zahar8976 They ARE beatable. Sorry.
@@Alessioo7 And as we all know, an actor's skill is truly determined by how well they can pretend to be Cuban
The real crime in this whole thing is that Pacino didn't win the Oscar
That is absolutely right
Jack Nicholson won the Oscar for one flew over the cuckoo’s nest in that year or he would have.
The 1970's was Pacino's decade.
Yea he deserved a Oscar!!!

Im obssed with young al pacino so handsome
same
He was introspective, soulful, and soft-spoken. When he tried to become a tough growling macho lead, he lost it. He used to speak with his eyes and then his eyes went dead. It's sad how Hollywood grinds people down, men included.
I think I am more obsessed with young Al Pacino he was deliciously handsome!
@@MoniLein-yy2ue he didn't lose it when he became "macho". Scarface and heat are classics and scent of a woman literally won him his only oscar.
One of his most underrated performance's. I think the scene where the lady's on a call to her husband and she asks Pacino what time they'll be done and he drops his head in disbelief then says "Oh girly please." Should've been included.
This movie is a well known classic and got Pacino a Best Actor nomination. It's not underrated at all. It's one of the most famous movies of all time.
Yesss I always rewind that part because it was classic 😂😂
@@fluttergirl75 Exactly! This film is so famous, Travolta even mentions it in Saturday Night Fever. 😀
Carol Kane
"I'm a Catholic and I don't want to hurt anybody." I love this film.
😂😂😂
"Tell the journalist I´m not a homosexual"
"Which country you wanna go" "Wyoming" 😂😂😂
Al Pacino's best role
😂😂😂
Pacino should have won so many Oscar's during the 70s but to me this was the biggest injustice
Best line: On the phone with the cop, "I'm in here with a guy that thinks Wyoming is a country."
Pacino chaotic energy is unmatched
Honestly this movie is what made me get a massive crush on young Al Pacino. He was ridiculously handsome and captivating in this film I couldn't take my eyes off him. 😍
agree he looks better here that in the godfather IMO, or maybe its because this character is just more charismatic, charming
Some kings are short. This one is massive
When I first saw this movie I was thrilled, afraid and excited. I still am when I see it. In my opinion this is the best Pacino movie.
Me too
You nailed it, but Sleazywood didn't!
Not even 5 minutes into the movie, I knew I was going to enjoy it. Now it's one of my all-time favorites. I can't believe I never saw it until 2024.
The great Elton John song Amoreena that starts it off was all I needed
this movie was a comedy in my eyes. well, until the end.
best Pacino performance, he is perfect here. his peak in every way (looks and acting) such a charismatic guy.
I forgot what an amazing movie this is! Al Pacino has shown range in this production, a range hardly any other actor can reach. Great stuff.
"I gotta pay for the food..wheres the marked 5's" lmao genius
Love this!!!🤣😂 Al Pacino is G.O.A.T.
He is a real handsome cute charming and talented man.
only just realized that he paid for the pizzas with the fake banknotes lmfao
omg true 🤣

I cant imagine timothy chalamet acting like al did here.thats why the 70 s were so good
"No beer, Let's keep it soft drinks."
"oh it's the squirrel, you got a husband." 🤣🤣
"I'm not a homosexual. You tell them to get that right. It's going out on TV."
My dad told me to watch this 20 years ago. I'm still laughing my guts out with this masterpiece.
I love Al so much as Sonny and Dog Day is my favorite movie. This made my day.
Love Al Pacino in this, and the great John Cazale as well!!
I love the “Kill Em All” phone call 🤣
He sounded like a psycho 😂😂😂
It was so random😂
The camera movement is like I'm watching the office, and also the fact that there's no music
There’s actually no music in the whole film!
The greatest performance in cinema history
Pacino at his greatest, One of the few John Cazale films, and an impeccable supporting cast.
It was bound to be an ineffable film wasn't it?
0:20 "See now they all wanna go"
LMFAO
John Cazale was wonderful. Gone too soon.
One of my favorite movies! Also, your added commentary 😂😂
Al is such a great and entertaining actor that they made a best moments video on him just based from one film
A must watch movie. Excellent and to think it is a true story. Wow
The epitome of classic.!❤😊
Al is so beautiful
This is the Pacino I’d take off my LaPerla for: long hair, vulnerable, cuuuute. I loved him in the GODFATHERs but my LaPerla fell asleep.
Charles Durning was fantastic in this movie. One of our greatest character actors ever!

And Charles Durning gave a superbly realistic performance as the harassed cop, Moretti, trying to keep the situation under control.

I love this
This is favorite comedy movie!
HAPPY HOLIDAY AL PACINO!
Great film. Beautifully written scenario. Some superb acting throughout.
We play all the hits ...
What a line 👏
One of the greats all around
For as much of a thriller this movie is, it's super funny in the first half
Thanks I needed to hear "Wyoming is not a country". Thumbs up.
fun fact that John saying wyoming was improvised, and Al's reaction was real because he didnt know what John was gonna say
Attica, attica, this a really underrated Pacino performance
I forgot how good everyone was in this movie. I had the pleasure of working with Charles Durning in the late 90's. He was a fine gentleman.
Paul McCartney's having a rough day
My two favorite entertainers.
They have a slight resemblance, but I think Al Pacino is much more handsome. Paul McCartney was really cute, though.
BAHAHHAHAHAH😂😂 Their resemblance is actually the reason I started watching Pacino's movies 😊
Lmfao yo this is hilarious al pacino is amazing
The best actor of all time. Class personified
4:42 "No, I got it, I got it " pissed myself laughing, haha
“Wyoming isn’t a country.”
Al Chaotic 😂😂😂😂😂
Legendary
Theatre 🎭
this movie could so pass for comedy
I laughed more at this movie than any other comedy movie
My fav scene is when the bank phone rings. The teller says its for him. Stunned but he answers. Police Captain says, what are you doing in there.
Godfather alternate universe when Michael Corleone was born as just a regular guy fallen on hard times
Is it normal to be this handsome?? Im not ok!
"what's this with the hands, huh?" My favourite line in the film I think
you forgot the great "I know a lot about a lot of things"😂
Al Pacino❤>>>>
2:55 LMFAO
This story is true. It happened on August 22, 1972.
Brooklyn, NY
We need sal's best moments too

I love this movie. The fact that the crew were high (ie cocaine) really captured that energy.
Attica! Attica! Attica! Attica!...
Oh to be Al Pacino's hostage in that bank❤
2:31 "Is there any special country you want to go to?" "Wyoming" He knew at that point he was screwed.
John made that part up too
"Nooo i got it, i got it" hahahahaha
He look soo cute in this movie 🥺
“They poisoned the pizza.”

IDK, I think there’s a lot of diversity in his roles. Frankie and Johnny, Panic in Needle Park, Bobby Deerfield.

yeah, this movie came out 3 years after the attempted robbery. the guy got sentenced like 20 years but only served 5-7 something like that
This was a great movie. Young Al Pacino of the 70s seems so different from the one that materialized after Scarface.
angry al
Just occurred to me that in this film he plays an impulsive hot-head named "Sonny."
