Al Pacino is one of cinema's most iconic actors, known for intense, explosive performances. His portrayal of Michael Corleone in "The Godfather" trilogy is considered one of film's greatest performances. He brought memorable intensity to roles in "Scarface," "Dog Day Afternoon," and "Scent of a Woman" (for which he won his Oscar). Pacino is one of few actors to achieve the Triple Crown of Acting (Oscar, Emmy, Tony). His theatrical background and method approach create unforgettable, larger-than-life characters. Despite being one of the most nominated actors, his influence extends far beyond awards.
