The DVD Buff

Al Pacino shows us another side of himself

Yesterday a unique cinematic collection was released on DVD; the Al Pacino box set. Now, when I first heard about this release, I thought that the movies included would be ones that he’s acted in like The Godfather, Scarface, Raging Bull, etc. But I was blown away when I saw that the DVD’s in this set were movies that Al Pacino had directed and produced himself. I’m a pretty big Pacino fan so when I saw this I had to check it out. Basically the DVD’s in this set include Chinese Coffee, Looking For Richard, and Local Stigmatic. Pacino directed the first two and produced Local Stigmatic.

These movies were never released wide, so this is the first time they are being made available to the public. This is great news for Pacino fans. I haven’t gotten a chance to see these movies yet, basically due to availability, but now that they are out I am definitely going to get them. If any readers have seen these movies please share them with us. I’d love to know, and am looking forward to getting the box set (ordered it from Amazon).Come on people, lets get a little interactivity here!
