The Godfather, Serpico, The Godfather 2, Scarface, Sea of Love, Carlito's Way, Scent of a Woman, Heat, Donnie Brasco, Devil's Advocate, Insomnia, The Irishman, some of Al Pacino's best films
How Pacino has only ever won one Academy Award is beyond me. The man has been part of so many iconic movies, playing so many iconic roles that it's an injustice that he's only a one time winner.
its because he was bred from the east coast, broadway and the actors studio... he was looked down upon for many years by the west coast hollywood industry. They did not even want him to play in the godfather, it was almost a miracle he got the role, even though he was well deserved and earned.
The one time he won was the one time he shouldn't have won. Not because he wasn't great. He was. But Denzel Washington gave the performance of a lifetime in Malcolm X. Families of Malcolm visited the set, and they were shocked to see him . They said it was as if Malcolm was alive.
That eight ball scene always gets me breathless. It makes no difference that I know the outcome. Just incredible acting and timing by everybody. The air is so god-damn tight.
I've watched this scene a dozen times and just now realized the 'rack' at 2:32 was a shit rack, like he was just going through the motions. You can see it's not a legal/proper rack.I mean, just look at the 8-Ball.
YESSSSSS!!!!! Al Pacino is one of the best actors of all time. For me he's #1 and my favorite movie of all time was Scarface. It doesn't matter how old he gets, he's movies will always be top of the line successful.
Yeah, that close up shot of al as he walks around the pool table, for some reason it keeps the tension in the scene, i guess cause you know he is trying to distract the others and we see only his expression as he works them.
Three things tip Carlito off in this scene: #1, He's denied the bathroom, and notices that if its "out of order", then why is somebody in there? #2 They turn the music up knowing shits is not far away from going down to muffle any gunfire or screaming. #3 Carlito notices the rack doesn't make one lick of sense after they mentioned they're playing eight ball. - after the culmination of these things.... Carlito takes action. Street smarts at its finest. Excellent scene.
@@harveyking5038it’s a tough world for sure, the acting. But this is actually the point here, to shine where it’s almost impossible. Al Pacino has been shining in the industry for decades, he deserves that title of One of the most brilliant actors of all times. To tell only one is the best, that’s always subjective.
@@harveyking5038 I agree with you for sure. There is a luck component here, but also think about it just a little. The fact is that there is a Pacino, a De Niro, a Nicholson, a Streep for one reason, that’s the point you are talking about. It must be this, the good luck seems to be random. I think is luck, she defines by herself but there is a work hard thing here as well. We can’t resume that this artist people for example they can’t work hard over the years. They had luck? Sure. But they work hard? Another sure. So for me there is luck and there is hard work and the gift that you have to be good at this sector or another. I mean, I probably could try acting because I love cinema and I will probably gonna be a bad actor, even if I work hard I could possibly be a bad actor. If I have luck doesn’t mean I’m going to be one of the best actors of all time. It needs a whole career and a lot of hard decisions over the years. These people are good, very good at their business. They had luck? Probably a little bit, but the luck is not the only material here to create this alchemy. Don’t you think? Thanks for the talk by the way. Have a good day.
Yes! I agree 💯 best score ever, catches the decade/era masterfully. Even Viggo Mortensen as Lalin’ had me SO fooled!, he sounded 💯 authentic Puerto Rican! I didn’t realize at 1st it was Viggo. Great great cast.
one of the best gangster films after God father, his acting is sublime he is Carlito no acting was needed, cant understand peoples tastes for not rating it one of the best films.
Al Pacino belongs in the very top tier of actors together with names like Anthony Hopkins, Danial Day lewis. His commitment to the characters he plays and his delivery is on that level. He hasn't had the credit he deserves.
I also love the scene in the movie Heat with Robert De Niro. The dialogue they had off each other and they way their characters finally meet face to face was incredible moment. When I was watching that part I almost had difficulty which character to root for because the way both men carried their acting skills to their own characters was impressive.
Carlito's Way is my favorite movie of all time. "You ain't a lawyer no more, you're a gangster now. You can't learn it in school and you can't start late".
When Pacino asks to use the bathroom and they say it’s broke and guy says turn up the music look at Pacino eyes …. It’s exactly the way they looked in Godfather when he comes out of the bathroom and sits at table before he shoots McClusky in the throat. Same darting eyes.
Carlitos way,most underated film ever,Pacino did it just as a favour to di palma apparently,and yet for me,his best film, its casablanca reimagined,he is staggering in this film
And there are 100 more riveting scenes of acting from this man! From one spectrum of acting to the other and everything in between this man, Al Pacino, can take on the persona of a tree and have you on the edge of your seat. I can’t think of any other actor out there that has the range, the magic, artistry and gift he has. Truly an amazing man… who as another commenter here mentioned should have at least a dozen Academy Awards on his mantle back home. I stand and applaud thee Mr Alfredo James Pacino , who in my eyes is the G O AT !
His anger in Godfather 2 whilst looking at Fredo or Kay especially when she says about the abortion.. his face is speaking words that your voice just can’t say! Then there’s the “silent wail/scream” in Godfather 3 these scenes are burnt into my brain he’s just impeccable.
One of the best scenes that takes me is the scene in Scarface when Tony is talking through the speaker and gets angry after being called a cockroach and he leaps to pick u the speaker and it jups out of hs hand whihc lead to an most amazing scene which can only be seen rather than described.
I could never decide who had the edge, Pacino or DeNiro, but now that DeNiro has lost his ever loving mind and acts like a complete nut job I will hand it over to Pacino. Al Pacino #1.
Funny...the decision is read from a prepared text...how did Miss Hunsicker have time to put that together in the time Slate made his speech and the committee held its impromptu meeting?
The Godfather, Serpico, The Godfather 2, Scarface, Sea of Love, Carlito's Way, Scent of a Woman, Heat, Donnie Brasco, Devil's Advocate, Insomnia, The Irishman, some of Al Pacino's best films
You right ✅️ I have some of those movies 🎬 and I have never get tired of watching them
Don't forget Dog Day Afternoon!
Or Glengarry Glenross
True. Yep.
Don’t forget Jack and Jill.

@@surebrec5113 Al Pacino is an Icon
@@oscarwilde5473 He is 5'6in which is not too short. TC is 5'8.
The one time he won was the one time he shouldn't have won.
Not because he wasn't great.
He was.
But Denzel Washington gave the performance of a lifetime in Malcolm X.
Families of Malcolm visited the set, and they were shocked to see him .
They said it was as if Malcolm was alive.
It because he’s not agreed with power elites…
You can put Pacino in a room and film him staring at the wall for 2 hours and it would be an Oscar worthy performance. The man kills it on screen.
Best post ever!
He can read the phone book and it would be captivating.
I wouldn't go that far
@@Mrmajellan123 It's a figure of speech.
Put a couple of seconds for screaming scene in that movie, it would be the masterpiece of the century!
This wall has been here from the start and day and night it never turned its back on me. This room you put me in was never purgatory it was freedom
I know that Scent Of A Woman speech almost word for word & I’m still on the brink of tears
Literally just watched that! Excellent stuff from him, as always.
I doubt you know anything about that movie
His performance in Scent of a Woman was just otherworldly! I get chills every time! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of my most favorite scenes of all time.
This movie is second only to Godfather 2
That eight ball scene always gets me breathless. It makes no difference that I know the outcome. Just incredible acting and timing by everybody. The air is so god-damn tight.

That’s the genius of director Brian Depalma
fantastic backing track too
@ I still find myself acting like Carlito if I’m in a nightclub and “got to be real!” Is on
The original take was actually a lot longer! The film company edited it!! And it was great! One of the best scenes!
Probably the best actor of all time. His connection to the screen is unmatched.
to me, he's only after Marlon Brando and Paul Newman on the GOAT list
Jack Nicholson
Jared Leto
Simply said= One of the best actors in the world......
Was when he wasn't woke.
@@shaynejenkins446Is he? I feel so disappointed to hear that
@@shaynejenkins446Most of Hollywood is woke. As long as they are not activist i.e DeNiro I’m okay with them.
YESSSSSS!!!!! Al Pacino is one of the best actors of all time. For me he's #1 and my favorite movie of all time was Scarface. It doesn't matter how old he gets, he's movies will always be top of the line successful.
There will never be another Pacino for another 100 years...
Tom Hardy showed promise before he did venom.
What is wrong with Venom? @@gabrieljohannson6777
Pacino is one in a billion.
Thank god.
@@gabrieljohannson6777 tom hardy over acts, he's the most overrated actor.
I'm here just to point at how excellent Brian de Palma direction is. That "Carlito's Way" scene is shot by shot brilliant.
The opening shot of Capone being served by his barber in "The Untouchables" is the finest piece of cinema direction ever.
Yeah, that close up shot of al as he walks around the pool table, for some reason it keeps the tension in the scene, i guess cause you know he is trying to distract the others and we see only his expression as he works them.
@@jameseastope5562They cut away from the best part of the Carlito scene. He bluffs the other guys into running away by threatening them. Great stuff.
Three things tip Carlito off in this scene: #1, He's denied the bathroom, and notices that if its "out of order", then why is somebody in there? #2 They turn the music up knowing shits is not far away from going down to muffle any gunfire or screaming. #3 Carlito notices the rack doesn't make one lick of sense after they mentioned they're playing eight ball. - after the culmination of these things.... Carlito takes action. Street smarts at its finest. Excellent scene.
Thanks for that
My, you're so observant
Also, the way the money counter says "Turn that shit up, I love that song..." HALFWAY through the song.
My 8 yr old knew what was up, thanks detective.
The first he notices someone peaking out of the bathroom, then he gets denied the bathroom! Snd kenkaya tips him off as well!…
He treats every role like he's on a Broadway stage. It's amazing. Literally 100% commited to every line he says while being in character.
I love big Ernie. He nailed that part perfectly 👌
Me too. Everyone was awesome in Scarface.
How did he nail it. He's Frank's bodyguard and he does nothing. He was the weak link in Tony's security team too. No wonder Frank and Tony both died.
there’s no one like him. My fave was Dog Day Afternoon. Incredible.
Attica! Attica! Attica!
As soon Carlito said "nah I'm going to watch".He knew that something was going on with these cats.
Did you make it to captain obvious or still just a LT yet
It is still difficult to me accept he only won one Oscar.
Should have easily gotten an Oscar for Scarface.
Same here, but this man has EIGHT movies coming out...hopefully one of them gets him his second OVERDUE Oscar.
They f__ked him out of an Oscar for Scarface because it was TOO real, so Scent Of A Woman was the academy make up punk move
@@kevinwalsh4652 that is all true. happens sometimes they do the year after thing for a lesser movie. real greaseball isht
Was he nominated for Scarface, though?
only with AL Pacino ACT you can see that an actor can be Blind for real in all his feeling and acting. what a man in all History of Cinema
Scent of a woman
Como pudo actuar,muy bien de ciego, con los ojos abiertos? Yo me lo pregunto.
Al Pacino a legend
Pacino is the Greatest Actor on the face of this planet !
it's just normal acting. you're getting caught up in the hype. hes the one that got a chance. many actors are good that never get a chance mate

One of my favorite and best actors ever much love Pacino and thanks so much god bliss up
Carlito's Way crazy under rated film. And the Score is Real good
Yes! I agree 💯 best score ever, catches the decade/era masterfully. Even Viggo Mortensen as Lalin’ had me SO fooled!, he sounded 💯 authentic Puerto Rican!
I didn’t realize at 1st it was Viggo.
Great great cast.
one of the best gangster films after God father, his acting is sublime he is Carlito no acting was needed, cant understand peoples tastes for not rating it one of the best films.
“No no no, you never did nothing to nobody. You had somebody else do it for you!”

The "hu-ahh" followed by the erupted applause is just so classic. Get's ya everytime.
He Is the one of the Best Actors Ever !!!!!!
Always saw him and Deniro on the same plane..
U got that 👉
He is THE BEST.
@@archibaldsalyards926 Pacino is better.

That was ANOTHER epic Pacino role.
Pacino payed his dues, again & again. So much respect for the legend. ❤
paid
A timeless piece, and one of the most stressful job interview ever.
Al Pacino is an awesome actor and very underestimated. His performance is diabolical!!
"hey man, you got a job.." I never forget 😅
Bruno Mars lmao
Al Pacino is my favorite actor I love all his movies all the ones I've seen. I'm in awe of Pacino's abilities.
Carlito's Way is my favorite movie of all time. "You ain't a lawyer no more, you're a gangster now. You can't learn it in school and you can't start late".
The best 3 clips
Never tire watching Al Pacino
The 'say goodnight to the bad guy' scene ftom Scarface is one of my favourite scenes ftom all time. Pure class.
For those that know... Al Pachino's best acting was in Glen Garry Glen Ross. 100% the best I've ever seen him.
Cussing out Kevin Spacey near the end of 'Glengarry Glen Ross' might actually beat these 😅
Oh yes! That was brutal. 'Williamson, you piece of shit. You fairy...' 😅
Agreed, that is an exceptional scene, also the shooting scene in the restaurant in The Godfather is great.
Pacino is a legendary actor he has contributed so much to Hollywood and the big screen 😮
God I love this intellectual man. So talented and gifted.
The monologue from "And Justice for all" is epic. "I have just completed my opening statement!"
PACINO WHAT MO NEEDS TO BE SAID.. RESPECT FROM CHI-TOWN
Pacino ...absolute legend
Al Pacino Glen Gary Glen Ross is my all time favorite with him. The monologue he gives to Kevin Spacey is priceless and a masterclass of acting!
Al Paccino. He was born for this .
He is genius!! ❤

This movie was a reminder of how great an actor Pacino is. For my money, this was better than some of his other more popular movies.
OMG. Al Pacino is one of the best actors he is so intense when the part calls for that my He is Brilliant!! 🎉 ❤❤❤❤
08:40 made me bust out laughing way too hard. That delivery is hilarious. 😂

I have see it countless times. It’s so great.
What's the name of this movie? Please 🙏
"Oh look, that's Saso ..used to be Ron!" - Carlito
I think Al Pacino should have won an academy ward for Scarface.
thank God. u put that speech 🤝
so many iconic scenes, and these are great
In an interview, Denzel stated that he studied Pacino (and DiNero for the nuances and subtlety they used in scenes!! 🙏🏿
Amazing how he was able to be cast as Hispanic, Italian or just plain badass. Scent of a woman, Heat, Godfather are his best in my opinion.
Don't forget Cuban.. Tony Montana.... Scarface
"Maybe you can get one of those 1st class tickets to the resurrection."
Maybe the least quotes lines from Scarface. Incredible.
“Fk you”!!!! Before Tony shoots Mel 😂😂
His performance as Shylock was also outstanding.
Devil's Advocate.. Mad respect
That kid has been so many good movies with great actors,
Scent of a woman performance was INSANE
The girls in the first clip dancing around like gta vice city cut scenes lol
Angels in America. It is TV but still, that acting earned him a Golden Globe
The best. There is no better than Al Pacino
Scarface is cold. 🥶
Scent of a woman is the best Al Pacino role!!!!!!
Greatest actor ever! The scene from Scent of a woman brought tears to my eyes when I saw it. The emotions were because of his acting.
Scent of a Woman speech shaped my childhood
Great list!
I LOVE ALPACINO, GREAT ACTOR
Esas películas ya nunca más se harán, con actores de verdad, maestros!!!
Anyone watching this should check out Dog Day Afternoon.
Good call! 👍
And Sidney Lumet’s directorial debut ‘12 Angry Men’. 2 of the best films ever made 👍
