One of Sidney Lumet's finest moments, and the sort of film which gives him about two decades worth of mileage to churn out any old tosh he likes.
Watched this on Saturday night with Addi Omotosho, at her new flat in Crystal Palace. Absolutely incredible. Hadn't seen it for years so it was a rare treat to see Pacino putting in one of his best ever performances as the luckless Sonny Wortzik, supported by a uniformly excellent cast, and a fantastic script. Pacino is at his most beautiful, even though at times he can barely peek over the top of the bank counters.
