And justice for all (1979) Mr. Al Pacino This movie Stars the very popular Mr. Al Pacino is perhaps one of the greatest performances of his career - for which he earned an Oscar nomination for best Actor! The other such great performance which should be mentioned is his certainly greatest role I would say in "Glengarry Glen Ross"  (along with "The Godfather" series too of course) The questions raised in this movie today is "What is true justice?" and how is it achieved in a land bent on making deals along the way for no doubt all too often undeserving defendants, while throwing the book at others all too often equally perhaps seeming with little regard to merit, it would appear. The true strength of Al Pacino's character which comes through is the greatest sense of normal human sanity and naturally present Christianly bent inner sense of decency, virtue and goodness embodied in his sense of idealism which he is endowed with - here he is set against the evil character played by John Forsythe who carries the role quite convincingly too as antagonist in this case. Enjoy the great acting of the greatest actor of all time - Mr. Al Pacino Michael Rizzo Chessman (moviesbyrizzo)
