Hosts Rosalie Lewis and Tim Rosenberger look back at two of Al Pacino’s earliest films:
First we take a look at The Panic in Needle Park (1971), which was Al Pacino’s second film and also the first to feature him in a leading role. Then we discuss Scarecrow (1973), a little-talked-about drama starring Al Pacino and Gene Hackman. Both films highlight Pacino’s already evident early talent while also showing a lighter, more comedic side of the great actor with which many viewers may be unfamiliar.
