happy birthday to the great al pacino. the insider is maybe my favorite performance of his. yeah he delivers lines well, but his face acting is mad underrated. the look of disappointment he gives each guy in this room is different for each guy. incredible work

@kgosztola Of interest is a film exposing nefarious corporate mergers

- by Disney/Touchstone - owner of ABC news - whacking market competitor CBS.

This opening presents him as city emperor...contrast to it's end.

Al Pacino ~ THE INSIDER (1999). Dir. Michael Mann. DP: Dante Spinotti. I love Spinotti's focal shifts here: first, focus is out the window, where we're looking onto the Upper East Side & Central Park; then, to Pacino; then, back to the city as Pacino looks out the window, too.👏

Weaponizing Hollywood.

The film that critiques corporate merger culture was made by Disney/Touchsone - owner of @ABC since 1985 - to whack that news broadcaster's main market competitor @cbs.

Michael Mann, Russell Crowe and Al Pacino on the set of THE INSIDER (1999).

[Michael Mann @michaelmann]

Photo storyboards from Insider, which came out 25 years ago this week. Blocking Sc.109, using 1st AD Michael Waxman as Pacino and camera operator Gary Jay as Russell, for the scene in which Bergman enters from the attorney’s house to ask Wigand if he’s decided to testify against Big Tobacco or not.

[Dane Hume @danehume]

This scene of Al Pacino in The Insider feels extremely relevant right now.

THE INSIDER celebrates its 25th anniversary next week. It’s one of Michael Mann’s greatest films, and perhaps his most prophetic. It’s also among the finest work of Al Pacino and Russell Crowe’s careers: https://t.co/T42iYFv7U1

- Redford made a career scalping his characters.

Even the 'Sundance Kid' was a Wild West media construct.
