Al Pacino Inside The Actor’s Studio

September 25, 2006

20060921_pacino_260x220.jpgHe is one of those actors’s who half the world considers “Michael Corleone,” and the rest think of as “that great actor in … not only The Godfather, Serpico, The Godfather, Part II, Dog Day Afternoon, Scent of a Woman, and "Angels in America."

We can now call Al Pacino a guest of “Insider The Actor’s Studio.” His full interview airs Monday, October 2, and from what we’ve seen: it’s a good one.

Our favorite quote comes from Pacino talking about how intense the resistance was to Francis Ford Coppola casting him in The Godfather.

“The reason I was eventually hired,” Pacino explains, “Was because the producers finally saw eight minutes from The Panic in Needle Park. Just eight minutes.”

Well, sometimes, eight minutes is all you need.
