Al Pacino, most famous for playing Micheal Corleone in The Godfather trilogy is an Academy Award wining American film and theatre actor cum film director. Al Pacino is not a new name. He has been in hollywood since 1969, when he did his debut in a minor supporting role for Me, Natalie.
He got his major breakthrough in 1972 by The Godfather. This role got him nomination in best supporting actor category at Academy Awards. Since then he has not seen back.
Pacino got nominated for Best Actor category at Oscars for his roles in Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, Justice for All and Scent of a Woman.
His film Scent of a Woman is one of my favourite films done by him. His performance as a retired Blind millitary official is breathtaking. He is so mesmerizing, that you will fall for him . He makes us cry in the scene of his suicidal attempt and he makes us laugh every time when does some leg-pulling of the other protagonist Charlie Simms. This is one of his masterpiece.
