Review of Scent of a Woman (1992) by Markg. — 30 Aug 2008
A fine film, if overly drawn out. Its central drawing point is the great acting masterclass given by Mr. Pacino. He really brings a life and charisma to the Lt. Col. that I find hard to imagine other actors capable of replicating.
Chris O Donnell for once appears not to be made out of mahogony, and give a restrained, yet powerful performance as the young student who acts as Pacino's carer. The set pieces are fabulous fun to watch, and include such memorable episodes as the blind Pacino driving a ferrari through the traffic filled streets.
Overall, a very enjoyable, and well directed movie.
