It’s fiction, and it would never happen - what does it help to highlight other than a false sense of reality that makes us feel good about something that’s very real and destroys lives daily? So forgive me, but “especially during *these times* “ it does nothing other than remind us of a world we’d all like to live in vs the real one, where *this* never happens.

@@thephalcon9501 I disagree. Movies, scenes and great acting are art. They remind us that we can feel outrage, empathy and criticize. Movies like A.J.F.A are poignant and interesting. So what if something is over the top sometimes? We're supposed to be moved and hopefully, stand up against injustice and tyranny. I respect your opinion but, I don't agree with it.

Al Pacino was absolutely epic in this movie, drama, comedy and emotion in so many parts. It’s a crime that he never won the Academy Award for this performance. Should have a minimum of 3-4 Best Actor Oscars on his mantlepiece!!!!
