If you ask me, I'd say the roles for which Pacino REALLY deserved the Oscars were:
The Godfather (over Joel Grey in Cabaret - who admitted he thought Pacino would win)
Dog Day Afternoon
Dick Tracy (though I cannot fathom Joe Pesci losing that year)
It's also true that sometimes just ONE other performance is what gets between you & Oscar!
Apple
A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
