AT 75, AL PACINO IS ON
FIRE: FLIRTY, JOKEY AND WITH HIS LUST FOR LIFE, ACTING – AND
COFFEE – UNDIMMED
I’m meeting Al Pacino in the kind of cafe that you would expect to be Al
Pacino’s local: an old-school joint in New York’s Upper West Side with leather
banquettes and good coffee. I assume he will be hidden in an alcove. But there
he sits quietly waiting, elegantly dishevelled in his civilian uniform: black
suit, louchely arranged silk scarf, a full head of electrified bed hair. After
four decades of exponential 'legendary’ status, he simply owns the room by
doing nothing at all.
