Für die Weltöffentlichkeit tauchte Al Pacino wie eine Supernova am Himmel auf. Seine erste Hauptrolle spielte er 1971 in Panik im Needle Park. Bis 1975 kamen vier Filme dazu: Der Pate und Der Pate Teil II, Serpico und Hundstage, die nicht nur Erfolge, sondern auch Meilensteine der Filmgeschichte waren. Diese Rollen machten Al Pacino zur Legende und veränderten sein Leben für immer, denn seit Marlon Brando und James Dean hatte kein Schauspieler mehr für solches Aufsehen gesorgt. Damals war Al Pacino bereits Mitte dreißig und hatte mehr als ein einziges Leben gelebt.

One of my dad’s favorite jokes about getting older was: “I went out for coffee when I was twenty-one and when I got back I was fifty-eight!” I get what he meant now. Time flies. My first book, If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a "B" Movie Actor, was published back in 2001 and it chronicles the adventures of a “mid-grade, kind of hammy actor" (my words), cutting his teeth on exploitation movies far removed from mainstream Hollywood. This next book, an “Act II” if you will, could be considered my “maturing years” in show business, when I began to say “no” more often and gravitated toward self-generated material. Taking stock in the overall quality of my life, I fled Los Angeles and moved to a remote part of Oregon to renew, regroup and reload. If that sounds tame, the journey from Evil Dead to Spider-Man to Burn Notice was long, with plenty of adventures/mishaps along the way. I never pictured myself hovering above Baghdad in a Blackhawk helicopter, facing a pack of wild dogs in Bulgaria, or playing an aging Elvis Presley with cancer on his penis - how can you predict this stuff? The sheer lunacy of show business is part of the fun for me and I hope you'll come along for the ride.
