The King of Old

Sigh. As Stand Up Guys starring Al Pacino released in a few theatres in USA without much of a swan song, it made me feel nostalgic of the time when Pacino ruled the theatre halls. His name itself has a certain royal ring to it, of a king in whose grandness we basked. Words can never come close to describing what a talent Pacino is and the joys his movies have brought. For me his greatest five movies, and what a debatable fun topic this is, are The Godfather (I & II), Heat, The Devil's Advocate, Scarface and Scent of a Woman. This one picture from 1972's The Godfather sums up a lot about Al Pacino - royal, majestic and intense. Just don't want to say anything more.
