Another pleasant surprise.
in my mind this edit should not work BUT it does....
It is was breath of fresh air to not have Carlo Brigante saddled with the love story and it plays extraordinary well. The trims are well judged and for the most part seamless. The narrative does feel a touch rushed in a few places butthe new focus works well despit this..
I do think that the post seequence of removed scene to illustrate some of what was removed was very ill judged indeed...but I am not deducting any points for that...just an observation...and if this was submitted today, I think it would have to have an end credit roll, but again, just an observation...no deductions.
Excellent and Recommended to those who want concentrated Pacino without fluff.
