pacinoyes - Could you have seen Pacino in Lost in Translation? That's a real funny clip - since you know, he played your dad Sofia - I don't think Al would work in Lost In Translation, in fact, that's a hard role to cast so I know what she means. By that time - 2003 - Pacino had begun to typecast himself on film and would have just brought too much baggage to the role. He was actually quite adept at side-stepping that later in a way - but in roles that were only well structured/defined and he's lucky he got - like the HBO stuff which saved his career yet caused his movie opportunities to decline also. Usually Pacino is not great at roles where he has to vaguely suggest something like Murray has to do in Lost In Translation - his great gift is character definition/vividness - taking the written text and getting the most out of it. I do love when you see something like Murray though and that's rare too - Peter Fonda in Ulee's Gold gives that kind of performance and Pacino couldn't do that one as well either. In fact, in his most @tyler role on paper (!?!) he failed at it imo, despite some fans of it and despite having some great moments, AND his real life girlfriend AND at the height of his stylish 70s fashionably chic phase.

pacinoyes - Which film is that still from? They both look gorgeous. Bobby Deerfield (1977) - Keller and him were a very volatile couple and are still close it seems - somewhat surprisingly actually. Side note: they asked him who's the best kisser on film on Kimmel and he says Michelle Pfeiffer but didn't mention Marthe Keller, Diane Keaton, Penelope Ann Miller, Tuesday Weld all of whom he actually had relationships with and did films with too. Alrighty then ..........

Last night on Kimmel - Funny and less "hey - where am I?" than he usually is .......mentions his upcoming TV series "Hunters" a bit. I still say if we had another GOAT poll right now he'd go from being our previous #1 pick to somehow being like #15 because you are all absolutely horrible, horrible people. TerryMontana among others. Lovely as always!!

http://instagram.com/p/B76n-TwBRpj Since I brought up the possible Megalopolis hint a few posts ago - this pretty unknown actor posted this yesterday, both with scripts, so a table read? Well...... it's either a project we haven't heard about or I'm thinking between the caption (Godfather ref) and it being at CAA - who is arranging financing and distribution for Mega, could be it???

Somehow missed the last couple months of posts, but I love that this has become a general thread for anything Pacino-related.

Pretty cool in LA this Spring, tickets pending..........I'm sure this costs a couple hundred bucks and it's just a reading not a re-staging of the play - but it's for a great cause at least.......this was his 2nd Tony Award in 1977. At one time Leonardo DiCaprio flirted with doing a revival of the play on Broadway believe it or not. Not sure Al will ever go onstage in a full play again tbh, so if you have a couple hundred bucks to burn, send it to me enjoy the show.

Laidback chat - 17 minutes - but at 9:55 the dude asks Pacino about upcoming projects and seems to have already been told about a "potential Frank Lloyd Wright project" - and Pacino also mentions the Tennessee Williams play (God Looked Away) that they're rewriting - and which imo should def be a HBO movie.
There was a Frank Lloyd Wright sort of biopic Bruce Beresford was attached to direct last decade, hmmmm!!!!!

Never has an actor - much less a GOAT level actor - snatched defeat from the jaws of victory more than him Hey asshat you don't need to play yet another biopic role (Frank Lloyd Wright) and MsMovieStar may be more suited to play Tennessee Williams than you are (maybe got a lucky pass on the public workshop you did but ........). I guess that's why you still see him photographed with Robert Allen Ackerman for that Williams play. In the last 2 and 1/2 years and approaching 80 - you gave 2 great performances (Paterno, Irishman) and more people have seen you in the last 6 months with (the already questionable!) Hunters and the 2 big 2019 films than did in the previous 15 years combined................ so let's not fnck it up ok? Oh right he has Axis Sally coming which will actually fnck it totally up...........alrighty then.

Oh honey, I'd work with Pacino... everyone knows I'm a serious actress. I haven't been around much here recently, because I've had to shave off all my pubic hair for a role... It's an important script... my character is called, 'Eurotrash Girl' and I haven't worked out which accent to do yet for the line... I'm not sure about the Goat. I tend not to work with animals.

The irony here is I was actually hired to draft a screenplay with a role for you in it in a film that involved several animals - a sequel to the George Clooney flop "The Men Who Stare At Goats" entitled "The Men Who Do A Lot More Than Just Stare At Goats" Took the first film into a really exciting and strange new direction....... That project was halted unfortunately do to a very flaccid pitch meeting and projectile dysfunction .....

If the script said "GOAT" you sure it isn't Pacino? "Just when I thought I was out, they pull me baaa-ack in!"

Oh honey, it wasn't 'The Men who stare at Ms Movie Star with a Goat", was it? I don't do those types of movies... What type of actress do you think I am?!
Just write me something straight up with Ryan Gosling, Henry Cavill, Garrett Hedlund, Armie Hammer, Jamie Dornan, Jake Gyllenhaal, Chris Pine, Omar Chaparro and Chiwetel Ejiofor. There is a nudity clause in my contract... so I don't mind an arc of gratuitous nudity and superfluous sex scenes...

Firm date, tickets on sale - doesn't seem to be anyone of note in the cast otherwise. Just a staged reading for Veterans charity so 1 night only. Al Pacino reprises the title role of Pavlo Hummel, which he played in the original 1977 Broadway production winning the Best Actor Tony Award.www.shakespearecenter.org/al-pacino-2020-pavlo-hummel

Wtf is he talking about "I did Pavlo Hummel when I was 20" - - you were 37 dude. I know a lot of people won't like Hunters but it worked out fairly well for him it seems to me - it's his 4th straight positive on RT (barely!), I saw his actor instincts even though it ain't deep and he gets to kill people and rip off an occasional good line - "You thought we were pawns when we were really kings!" But now, come on buddy, it's time to put on your big boy pants and start thespianing....while you still have it together.... Look when his King Lear was supposed to film for Godsakes!

I believe that's a promo poster when they were shopping it around in 2011. They even started casting around then.... Michael Radford said Depp was the Fool and that they were talking to Emily Blunt and Jessica Chastain for the daughters.
I keep thinking he wants to be exactly 80 when he does Lear - despite sounding hesitant - and his schedule doesn't look busy for the rest of the year, sooooo y'know. It's time.

According to Mickey, he's doing Pinocchio with Pacino? and it starts shooting in four months?? 2018 there were reports Pacino was gonna play Geppetto in a live-action version shot in Latvia by some director Mauro Borrelli who's made a few movies all rated under 5.0 on IMDb. Rourke just finished shooting a movie with the director a couple months ago, maybe he knows, hopefully he's just bullshitting.....

......... he's doing Pinocchio with Pacino? and it starts shooting in four months?? So many snarky things that things I could say........like first I guess De Niro won the fight huh, Mickey, because you look awful pal Hopefully this doesn't happen because I'll have to talk about how Mickey Rourke, in the 80s was never anything special and that never goes well with the revisionist history people who love Mickey (" he was a man! he was playing grown men!" is what the BS line always use....... ............. but this is interesting only because in 4 months he's supposed to be in Italy........shooting that Ridley Scott Gucci movie.........hmmmmm......hope it's BS though
