Good advice, Don Cardi.
I tend to focus on 'Pacino' himself more when I'm watching
'Dog Day Afternoon'. Personally I delight in his energy in that film and the utter & complete contrast to the Michael Corleone character he played only the year before.
In GFII, I happen to find DeNiro as young Vito far more attractive, more fun and even more interesting than Michael. His Oscar for that role was well deserved.
