“Woo-Ha!”
This drama released in 1992 is certainly a cinematic gem; simple in production but with its larger than life characters; highly outstanding and spectacular. Still have not seeing ‘The Godfather’ which believe me it is high on my list of ‘movies I must see and study’; Al Pacino I see is unquestionably tremendously talented. Many actors have had the opportunity to play blind and I’ve seen quite a number attempt to make it true to life, so far, Pacino and Ziyi are the only ones I find believable.
Written by Giovanni Arpino and adapted by Bo Goldman, this film certainly had the dialogue, life and lessons the world could learn from. There were so many words of wisdom, kindness, and comedy packed within this script, it’s hard not to fall in love with this film from beginning till end. Pacino overshined the entire cast; and although he was somewhat of a fanatic, we loved him because we understood that he was simply hurting and wanting someone to really care. My favourite monologue; which would be relatable to the title of the film would certainly have to be:
“…Women…what could you say? Who made em? God must’ve been a fucking genius! Hair…they say hair is everything you know. Have you ever buried your nose, in a mountain of curls and just…wanted to go to sleep forever? Or lips, and when they touched yours, were like your first swallow of wine…after you just crossed the desert? Tits! Woo-Ha! Big ones! Little ones! Nipples staring right out at ya, like a secrets…Mmmm…Legs. I don’t care if they’re greek columns or second-hand Steinways…what’s between them…passport to heaven….”
Directed by Martin Best and released by City Light Films and Universal Pictures, this crew and cast hit movie gold! Jam-packed with moments and memories to last a lifetime! J
