Wow. What disturbs me is I honestly think Pacino can pull it off.

It would be very interesting in my opinion to see these 2 great actors sharing roles in a film. Besides, I consider that actors and actresses must be multitasking in the thing that they must even roles of characters of different nationalities. So, I consider that this would be very interesting to see.

Sounds pretty good, but can they use a different title? The "(prolific artist) and I" title is way overused.

"Besides, I consider that actors and actresses must be multitasking in the thing that they must even roles of characters of different nationalities."

so, what nationality are you, or do you just not write well?

actually he's acted as a cuban & a puerto rican, direct descendants of th spanish culture. nevertheless, there are so many great spanish actors who should be given the opportunity to show how great they are that when i remmember him in the role of tony montana i couldn't get out of my head that he was an italo american actor. and as carlito in carlitos way, he defenetly lacked the puerto rican spirit. we'll have to wait and see. in the mean time lets keep enjoying good spanish movies with excellent actors and actreesses.

sounds good as long as pacino doesnt make an *** of himself in it. the only decent thing ive seen him in lately was insomnia.

This is kind of cool; we have two great actors from two different generations collaborating for one single movie. I've always liked when stuff like this happens. It's too early to pass judgment on this movie, so I'll just say that I plan to keep an eye on it, since I'm a big fan of Cillian Murphy and Al Pacino isn't that bad either.

I must apologize. I didn't wrote that properly. I must have said that actors and actresses must play roles that are not from the country they were born.

Hmmm, I'd agree, but the movie is going to be a dramatisation of the book of the same name, so to change the movie title would be like changing the names of the movie versions of "Cold Mountain", "Jurassic Park", "Casino Royale" or "The DaVinci Code". Actually, the DaVinci Code movie should have been called "Utter Crap".

Wonderful combination. Both have a flair for the dramatic, but both can play it cool when necessary. One problem....way too far in the future before release! Hate that!

this movie should be good. Although hollywood often screws up artist's biographies, in the hands of the guy who scripted the truman show this looks like a safe bet. and to anyone who has the nerve to doubt, even to question al pacino's acting ability, get offline before you embarrass yourself any further.

Well .. Al has never disappointed me. If the movie sucks, I'll be glad to watch his performance ^^
