Pacino's eyes speaks a lot, sometimes it's too deafening. My fav Actor of all time.

Yeh, his eyes really say a lot in this film. The way he looks increasingly dead inside as the film goes on.

Nowadays no-one owns an NYC loft or apartment the size of Al's girlfriend in this movie.

A true masterpiece… So underrated

Disturbing, but can't stop watching, good film.

This is probably the most underrated, misunderstood and overlooked film in the careers of both director William Friedkin and Al Pacino. Over the years I've seen several friends/associates who I introduced it to either beg off due to the male eroticism or lapse into sheer ridicule- too bad, it's a shame. One of the best and most unique detective thrillers of the era, and all the great supporting roles by great NYC based character actors- Joe Spinell, Paul Sorvino, Randy Jorgensen... I could go on and on lol. Anyway sincere thanks for the upload

An actors job is to step into any social range in any era or generation - and be convincing. Not many pull it off. Pacino floats to the top while the other sink to the bottom. - Why? He's an actor!

THIS IS S+M SCARY STUFF, NOT A REGULAR GAY CLUB, BIG DIFFERENCE. GREAT MOVIE DONE BY A GREAT DIRECTOR WHO DID ANOTHER SUPERB MOVIE, THE 'EXORCIST'.

1. Love Al Pacino. 2. This upload is of a very good quality. 3. Good movie. 🇦🇺

20:04 "There's alot about me you don't know." Very telling of the outcome.

Man, those movies were better with their explanations of risks, crimes, and diseases than overpaid academics reciting book-lore!

I remember vividly back in the 80’s a friend of mine I was in a band with rented this on VHS just for laughs and to be edgy. Wouldn’t you know it….right during one of the rape scenes his Dad came home from work and walked in front of the TV…. “You Boys! WHAT are you into NOW! You know when I was in the Army, they showed the guys Government films that starred Popeye just to warn soldiers about this”. He walked away shaking his head. LOL! 😅

I found the film disturbing because the identity of the murderer remains unclear. I watched the film twice to pay more attention to details. Al Pacino's chin and the murderer's chin are very different. In my opinion, the murderer is thus not Al Pacino. It is neither the tall guy who lays on the hospital bedroom. On one hand Al Pacino sings "who is there, I am here, you are here" so he could be the murderer. On the other hand the fingerprint of the tall guy was found on a crime place says the police officer. However, the police officer may lie to obtain a confession I believe. OK, I exclude the tall guy from being the murderer. Now there are two possibilities. Either Al Pacino is the murderer - Friedkin doesn't expect us to be careful to the actor's chin -, or the latter remains uncaught. What is your opinion ? How do you understand the story ?

@@t.wilson9432 Hello, I wonder whether Friedkin wants to give as a take home message that the police is violent, homophobe and incompetent. First, the autopsy of the severed arm, the doctor says that the police is just able to close a case when there is a murderer's confession. Second, the tall black guy who strikes both Al Pacino and the young waiter, the latter is humiliated and psychologically destroyed by the policemen. Third, the two policemen that harass gays while being homosexual themselves. Fourth the murderer identity is confusing all film long, the police does not make it to catch the murderer. The chief officer believes the young gay lying on the hospital bed is the killer but we are not convinced, he is just a poor guy who struggles with the ghost of his father. At the end, Al Pacino is promoted while the murderer still runs. Police is a mess, that's the film message I guess.

The first victim played Ernie in SCARFACE

44 years ago

When this was first released the last scene wasnt a ship, it was a shot of a guy in leather walking down a dark street/alley.

This is the movie where they got real members of the NYC leather community (or whatever you call it) to act as extras in the film.
