This is a well-deserved Oscar and, more importantly, one that I can understand. Maybe a bit too long at times and, personally, [spoiler] I think the disciplinary hearing was too much. That speach about what's wrong with the school, the system, about punishing a young man for not selling out - althought well played - it felt to much of an urge to sell a morale. It did not fit in with the rest of the story. [/spoiler] But overall well worth watching.

So Scent of a woman. This was on my list for a while now. I like Al Pacino. He has this edge about him. His deliveries are so power packed that he leaves everything behind and comes forth on the screen. He appears more of a drama actor where a single spotlight covers his speeches.
