His best performance is The Godfather, undoubtedly. Dog Day Afternoon and Serpico - Lumet gets the best out of him, very subtle despite the intense situations his characters are put into..
I accept for these three films. But Carlitos way , I dint find it that way.He was just perfect in that role.Quote:

But Carlitos way - only pacino can do that.
As well,Nine queen was remade in English as criminal.Quote:

I agree that Pacino is closest fit to Puerto-Rican and Cuban convict.
I thought Bluffmaster was a fusion between Ocean's 11 and The Game starring Micheal Douglass and Sean Penn. :?Quote:

Bluffmaster is a mixture of Nine queens, Matchstick man and The Game with Nine Queens making style. I liked Bluffmaster too, excellent songs :clap:Quote:

All the while the other guy listens to him, as if he's just a novice trying to learn the trade from a pro - which is always the artifice of conning and to stay unsuspected - that one acts as if he is in no equanimity of the situation (that Darin's character embodies). In this respect the other guy's baby-face also works tremendously well !
