Al Pacino has crafted a brilliant career that provided the world with endless entertainment as well as irrevocably shape the landscape for modern cinema.
So, here are the talented actor's best five movies of all time.
The Godfather (1972)
Al Pacino portrayed Michael, the young war hero, who promised he’d never succumb to the lure of his family’s crime enterprise, ultimately takes a leap into the darkness he only thought he could avoid.
Interestingly, Marlon Brando rightly won an Oscar for his iconic turn as the Godfather himself.
Serpico (1973)
The brilliant actor wears every ounce of paranoia and anxiety in introducing Frank Serpico's character, an honest New York cop who blows the whistle on rampant corruption in the force only to have his comrades turn against him.
Dog Day Afternoon (1975)
Al Pacino presented a hopelessly desperate man attempting to rob a bank to pay for his lover’s sex reassignment surgery. With sharing intense, heartbreaking and often funny scenes with late screen legends like John Cazale and Charles Durning, the actor proved few could match his energy as one of Hollywood’s most gifted leading men.
Heat (1995)
The thriller movie marks one of the greatest crime films ever made, finally pairing Al Pacino with his longtime acting equal Robert De Niro on screen together. Al Pacino’s anguished detective sells the story through his marital troubles, struggling with the brutality of police work.
Insomnia (2002)
Christopher Nolan's film presents two Los Angeles homicide detectives who are dispatched to a northern town where the sun doesn't set to investigate the methodical murder of a local teen.
