    I gotta agree OP,

    I have seen that film so many times and still I end up laughing and crying.

    His role as Michael Corleone in any of The Godfathers is a masterclass for any actor.

    But the sharpness and human vulnerability of his character in 'Scent of a Woman' had me in flood of tears tonight.

    Oh dear. I gotta toughen up.

    I used to think so, but nowadays he is fairly sh1t, as is Bob De Nero.
    Do love Scent of a woman though.

    He's class, but DeNiro kicks his ass!

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

    He was brilliant in the first two Godfathers, Serpico, Scarface, Dog Day Afternoon but as he got older he just turned into a bit of a characature of himself, he completely lost that subtlety and understatement that he once had which is a real shame.

    Watched scent of a woman tonight myself, didn't think much of the film or his performance.

    Pacino in "Scent" is one of the most over-acted, over-rated performances ever. It borders on the embarrasing.

    I disagree, the character was believable.

    Ah yeah, way over the top.

    DeNiro isn't doing much better these days either.
