Scent of A Woman (1992) (Widescreen)

Al Pacino's favourite

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 21, 2006

Pros: Actors, Music, Plot, Twists

Cons: Ending

From the Argentinian tango 'Por una Cabeza', the lead theme of this master piece is the first item in the long list of good points about this wonderful movie. We all know Al Pacino's capability of making a role his own and once again, he... has managed to take control of the personality of the coronel, a man with no respect for society or its boundaries. Leading a young pupil through a short but significant moment in his life, we see the emotions of a true hero: a man full of flaws and complex with no happy ending. Chris O'Donell acts really as the naive young boy. His soul really seems pure, as Al Pacino states in a part of the movie, he's the perfect work in progress that will try everything to convice his guide that life is worth living. The unforgettable tango scene makes along with the other points, a must-see between anyone with a bit of taste in movies. Just like a nice wine, a brand new ferrari and a beautiful woman, this is a escencial in life. Read more Less

Simply the best film I have seen. An excellent use of humor and drama. Wonderful acting makes the film even more grand. You can actually see how the characters develop and change over the coarse of the film.

Last night, I saw this lovely film on USA. (My fourth time viewing it). I am amazed that Pacino did not win for best actor - I do not remember who beat him that year, but he will be remembered for Godfather, Dog day Afternoon, and Scent of a Woman. ...Wonderful writing, acting, locations, etc. This movie has it all !! On a scale from 1-10, this is an 11 !! Read more Less

Al Pacino is my Knight and Shinning Armor. He was my favorite actor in the whole movie. If I were to date I'd want the man I date to be just like him.Al I love you.I've seen the movie 3 times and I am yet to have it apart of my movie collection.My d...aughter keeps asking me why I love this man that's old enough to be my Dad.Well it's his personality he's a romantist, caring, gentleman.You can't find a man like him in reality. That's the sad thing. Read more Less

This movie is definately the most brilliantly made movie of the century.
Al Pacino's acting makes the most unsensitive person burst with tears of compassion and sympathy for the old blind soldier. never have i seen such marvellous acting in a film.

A terrific masterpiece
