Incredible imagery that drives the point home with fear, but a fear in understanding what the essence of it all truly accentuates! Marvelous series! I have been off Blogit with a darn migraine so it was good to awaken at midnight and feel well enough to read! sam

Re:Don't go back to watching movies, CC. It rots the brain, Besides, you
seem to be getting more than enough stimulation for your imagination! For the record, though, Al Pacino played
the crime boss's son and successor in The Godfather. After that he got a lot of emotionally explosive roles as
a cop or a crook. He had wonderful scenes in which he simmered and then blew up, making everybody jump. - Bob

Re: Did a little "catch up" reading
Thanks, Troosha. It's been fun. I'll be winding it up by the weekend. It kind of grew without my noticing, but
i'm trying to put together a good finale. - Bob

Re: Re: Re: Bob..Pacino's eyes always seemed to be sparking even when he was "cool"
They tried pairing the two in a subsequent movie (don't remember the name) and it fell pretty flat. I think it was a bad script trying to capitalize fast on the earlier success, but that's a guess. - Bob

Did you ever see the scene between the two of them in "Heat"? Pacino's a cop and DeNiro's a crook. Historic! - Bob

Bob..Pacino's eyes always seemed to be sparking even when he was "cool"
and relaxed...reminds me of DeNiro.
