Anyway, I agree that Pacino's Italian was not as good as DeNiro's. In GF2 Bob spoke Italian in almost all the Sicilian flashbacks, I believe, and he sounded credible as a fresh Italian emigrant. On the contrary Pacino was given too few Italian lines to judge him, but definitely he sounded less Italian and more American! smile


I don't want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don't tell the truth. I tell what ought to be truth (Blanche/A streetcar named desire)
