Product Description
Amazon.com Essential Video
Hoo-ah! After seven Oscar nominations for his outstanding work in films such as The Godfather, Serpico, and Dog Day Afternoon, it's ironic that Al Pacino finally won the Oscar for his grandstanding lead performance in this 1992 crowd pleaser. As the blind, blunt, and ultimately benevolent retired Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade, Pacino is both hammy and compelling, simultaneously subtle and grandly over-the-top when defending his new assistant and prep school student Charlie (Chris O'Donnell) at a disciplinary hearing. While the subplot involving Charlie's prep-school crisis plays like a sequel to Dead Poets Society, Pacino's adventurous escapades in New York City provide comic relief, rich character development, and a memorable supporting role for Gabrielle Anwar as the young woman who accepts the colonel's invitation to dance the tango. Scent of a Woman is a remake of the 1972 Italian film Profumo di donna. In addition to Pacino's award, the picture garnered Oscar nominations for director Martin Brest and for screenwriter Bo Goldman. --Jeff Shannon

Quoi? Vous ne connaissez pas encore la fameuse scène du tango? Et celle de l'essai routier en voiture de luxe? C'est que vous n'avez pas vu ce merveilleux film et dans ce cas, la scène finale, en salle de collège, vous est aussi inconnue.Ne perdez plus de temps à lire mes commentaires et précipitez-vous pour acheter ce DVD!

Scent of Perfection,
By BBBandit "Ramblin' Panda" (Merseyside, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scent of a Woman (DVD)
Scent of a Woman is not a "chick flick" or a guy flick.For me it's Pacino's best and the depth he brings to his character is amazing. Full of humour, sadness and triumph it brings life lessons to us all...... Superb speedy service by Amazon for a wonderful product.
