Thats the beauty of Donnie Brasco..seeing Pacino shine and show his exceptional talent playing a lowly mob figure like Lefty. He was superb. Johnny Depp was excellent, very convincing and really demonstrated he has true talent in acting range and ability. Michael Madsen was also very good and severly underrated as an actor IMO. The music, the seventies feel of New York reflected realnes to the overall movie. It was an excellent movie
