Al Pacino hasn’t cleared his throat since Heat.

Al Pacino Robert de Niro Joe Pesci ... The Unholy Trinity of Hollywood.

I met Pacino, I was 15 years old in 1983, I met him very briefly outside the theatre in NYC, he was performing in "American Buffalo" onstage that night. He was actually very nice, signed an autograph for me. I told him about the movies I saw with him I really liked like The Godfather and Dog Day Afternoon. He smiled, shook my hand, very cool guy.

I don't know if Al Pacino is the best actor ever, but he definitely has the most commanding screen presence. When he is on the screen, even with other legends, he is the one who attracts attention.
-
He’s been legendary for 50 years, think about that.
-
He has screamed in ALL his films that’s why his voice sounds like that
-
His performance in "Scent of a Woman" was amazing and he really deserved the Oscar for that role.
-
His Acting in Scarface is so freaking awesome. I’ve watched that movie 100 times and it’s never enough
-
Interviewer: "Why you wearing shade indoors?" Pacino:"The suns always shining when you're cool".
-
The Irishman just reminds me that Pacino, De Niro, and Pesci are getting older and won’t be here forever. I don’t wanna think about eventually losing these legendary actors

Al Pacino's transition during the Godfather was stunning. You need to bear in mind that at Connie's wedding, he appeared as an 'innocent' and an outsider to the family business, but he was already a Marine Corp officer and WWII combat veteran. So Mike had some steel in his character already, along with his Ivy League education, Corleone DNA and upbringing. You see the Marine officer come out when he tells the nurse to help him wheel his father's bed out of the hospital room, and the combat veteran when he confronts Captain McCluskey on the front steps. The transformation didn't start when McCluskey broke his jaw, or when he shot Sollozzo and McCluskey in the restaurant. It started December 7th 1941, when Mike decided to volunteer for the military.

Al Pacino is not only an actor, but a real hardcore artist, and therefore also touched by genius.
-
“Hi I’m Al Pacino if you didn’t notice ” this dude is his own iconic character
-
"I know it was you Fredo..You broke my heart"
-
Al Pacino is one of the last living legends. Please respect this man and his iconic craft.
-
Not going to lie, when Sal responded "Wyoming", I wanted to hug him. There was such a sincere innocence in that line, and Cazale was perfect for delivering it that way.
-
His acting as Tony Montana was just flawless and timeless.
-
I don't want to live in a world without Al Pacino.
-
“Say hello to my little friend” is the most iconic phrase in the movie world in my opinion
-
The best character Al played was Michael Corleone. He was tough, he was at times funny, above all he was stunning to look at.
