From “The Godfather,” to “Dog Day Afternoon,” “Serpico,” and “Scarface,” Al Pacino is one of the greatest actors to ever grace the silver screen. He’s worked with prolific directors (Martin Scorsese, Sidney Lumet, and Francis Ford Coppola, to name a few), received nine Oscars nominations — though he’s only won once (for “Scent of a Woman,” which you can stream here), and fashioned the kind of acting career that’s worth celebrating over and over again.
“Serpico”
“Donnie Brasco”
“Glengarry Glen Ross”
“The Godfather” Collection
“The Godfather” was the first in an epic crime trilogy that became a defining work for Coppola. Apart from being one of the greatest mob movies of all time, the 1973 Oscar-winning film was only Pacino’s third movie, but it made a lasting impression. In “The Godfather,” Pacino plays Michael Corleone, the youngest member of the fictitious crime family who reluctantly joins the mob. Marlon Brando plays patriarch Don Vito Corleone alongside an all-star cast that includes James Caan, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton, and Abe Vigoda. All three films in “The Godfather” franchise are streaming on Hulu.
“Scarface” Limited Edition
“Dog Day Afternoon” 40th Anniversary Set
“The Insider”
“The Irishman” Criterion Collection
“The Irishman,” streaming exclusively on Netflix, combines the cinematic trifecta of Martin Scorsese, Pacino and Robert De Niro for a uniquely reflective story chronicling the life of Frank Sheeran (played by De Niro), a truck driver who becomes a hitman and works his way up the ranks to work for mob boss Jimmy Hoffa (played by Pacino). The Criterion Collection release includes a new 4K digital master approved by Scorsese, a newly edited roundtable conversation among Scorsese and actors Robert De Niro, Pacino, and Joe Pesci (originally recorded in 2019), and a new documentary about the making of the film featuring Scorsese, the lead actors, producers, and more commentary from the cast and crew.
