Probably Dog Day, but Panic in Needle Park is one of those brutally real '70s films that you just don't see anymore, blurring the lines between fiction and documentary.

The Godfather Part II. Currently watching TV series The Offer which shows that Pacino was not the natural choice to play Michael Corleone but he certainly made it his!

I could and should vote for Serpico.

But I have to throw a bone to ...And Justice for All. I love that movie.

Hey Greg, you and I voted for the same thing in a poll!! This HAS to be a PA first! Big smile

Now all we need to work towards is voting for the same music choice!!  LOL


From reading your posts, I know we share more in common when it comes to film. With music, we just need the right two choices with one being an absolutely undeniable stinker that can't even be enjoyed in a so good it's bad way and the question could be "vote for the one less terrible", or "vote for the one most terrible" as an example. ;)

Thought it must have been a small oversight... easily done.. Smile

Just wondering Paul, why you never included Serpico? A strong contender...
