Al Pacino

Al, for so long I have just wanted to communicate with you to let you know what an absolutely amazing job you did playing Colonel Slade in "Scent of a woman." My father was blinded in the Korean war at the age of 17...a number of years before I was born. So, I lived my life with a father who was blind, and I can tell you, that your portrayal of a blind man was uncanny, really. Every time I see the movie I end up crying my eyes out. Your blank stares...the way you walked, the way you held your head....magnificent! That movie will always be my favorite movie. I also wanted to mention that I once sold a poem to your brother (it was a poem for a wonderful doctor, and my understanding is that he was going to give it to his girlfriend who was a doctor. All I know is that the poem was sold in Port Jefferson. I received a call from a sales clerk, who said that she needed the poem shipped to the store right away, and I agreed to do so,
as long as a note to you was included with the poem (a note which was supposed to get to you). I hope it did...but if not, I hope you see this heartfelt note. I adore you as an actor, and I thank you for such an incredible, once in a lifetime performance.
Warm Wishes & Many Thanks, Genie Graveline

Dear Mr. Pacino, I made a mosaic of you depicting your scarface movie. I could send you a picture of it. It has a mirror on it in the middle and the cover of the DVD facing inwards made out of very small glass. I made it at my college prep school. It took me a whole semester to make. Could you please send me an email so I can show you it please. I'm not looking for notoriety. I just think you should have it. Thank you for your valuable time.

I would like to let Mr. Pacino know that his role in Scent of a Woman was marvelous and he did deserve the Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of Colonel Slade. It was a flawless performance. I wish that he could send me a letter that he received my comment. I have sent a card to the New York mailing address, but never received any reply.
