When exactly did he become a meme actor?
Pacino

Scent of a Woman.
I'LL SHOW YOU OUT OF ORDER
Is that Paul McCartney?
That quote is from "And Justice for All". He mostly became a national meme after Scent of a Woman with all the hoo haa's and shit.
Way before that…I’d say Scarface is literally the most memed role of his
uh no it's not, you're getting your Al Pakinos mixed up
Paul has a very droopy face, Pacino has much sharper features than him
WHAT'S HIS NAME!?
Serpico
Academy Awards are death sentences in the end.
You peak. And everyone just waits for the moment you stumble. Only right way is to retire immediately.
Cruising
You're right user, my bad. He just gets out of order a lot.

Pacino was generally "the best actor of all time" meme, since the mid-90s.
So I guess almost everything after the late-90s/2000 was type-casted.
That implies he was always stupid at picking scripts and had got lucky.
Wrong Serpico is actually a low key performance for him and movie still holds up. If you had to pick one of his 70s movies Dog Day Afternoon would fit more into the meme “I’M ACTING” category
The brass at Paramount were calling him a shrimp before production of The Godfather even began, so he's been a meme from the beginning

>She's got a GREAT ASS!
he had a career lull for a few years after Cruising flopped. then he assumed the role of Tony Montana and never dropped it.
>low key
Can you people please stop talking like you're in a 2000s era hip hop video
No, that user is correct. Scent of a Woman created the Pacino persona that everyone does an impression of.
Scarface was the beginning of the end but Scent of a Woman is where everyone gets the Pacino persona. He really started getting typecasted after that movie.
>Pacino persona that everyone does an impression of.
Including Pacino himself
Hes an elderly man now. You cant expect him to deliver the coiled performance of another Sonny Wortzik or Michael Corleone.
when his voice got all deep and scratchy
HEAT
Yep.
His turn as Big Boy Caprice in Dick Tracy (1990) is another scenery chewing role
How is this board shitting on Pacino now? Name 1 performance in the past 10 years that’s as good as he is in Dog Day Afternoon
What’s the point of stupid posts like this?
hoowah
How is it a death sentence? It made him able to command big paychecks, and pick and choose movies - he's capable of good performances, and turned in great ones after Serpico, like Dog Day Afternoon, which was a better performance than Serpico.
He did money movies, for the paycheck, and did serious roles where he shone. He even tried comedy with "Author! Author!". And he did Scarface, Glen Garry Glennross, Sea of Love, Calrito's Way, Heat, Donnie Brasco, and the only decent performance in The Irishman. He's had a solid career, is a no brainer to try and get him attached to a movie, and has had no sign of any "kiss of death" for winning an Oscar.
You incel chuds just make shit up and parrot each other, with no thought or knowledge. Go post about tits or "sneed", that's your rodeo. Acting, actors, and careers are way above your paygrade.

I don't care that he became a meme his Michael Corleone is a top-10 all time performance and Gf3 never happened.
