Everything about this scene is iconic

[@CraigHalliday-r8q]

Al Pacino what a excellent Actor Pure Quality

[@jayonnaj18]

Young Charlie was the one who taught Frank how to be a loving, kind man!

[@YummyBaer]

I had this flamboyant uncle that was a loud person like Uncle Frank is here. People hated him and some loved him, I loved him later in life because I figured him out. He had a lot of good stories and some bad ones too. He embarrassed people that were big headed. He roasted people without effort. RIP Jerry

[@bongodrummer6914]

He cared not what people thought of him......the way it should be

[@jaeoen5636]

The way he yells “Willy! Oh Willy!” Always gets me lol 😂

[@russellbrown1068]

Such a great performance by Pacino, He truly earned that Oscar.

[@goldcanyon340.]

Truer words were never spoken.

[@vincentpaternoster7842]

Pacino so phenomenal in this role. He really deserved so many more Oscar’s than he has received, but had he not gotten it for this movie it would have been criminal. Whooo ahhhh! Favorite line in the movie: “WHAT LIFE ?! I GOT NO LIFE! IM IN THE DARK HERE!”

[@freindlycannuck1591]

Could you see anybody and I mean anybody in all of Hollywood who could play a role like that! I certainly can't! AL Pacino so versatile, so many roles so many different personalities just so much incredible talent! WOW!!!!!

[@freindlycannuck1591]

@@MundiaKamau Nope don't think so! Even though Nicholson is also a great actor, this is not the kind of role that he could have made justice to! It definitely took AL Pacino to get the job done!

[@MundiaKamau]

I'll never get tired of watching this scene. There's so much realism in the classic "Scent of a Woman" scene above, it transcends beyond just being a movie scene and becomes a solid organic reproduction of society. Excellent acting all round, the kind of acting that gets actors and actresses complimented for outstanding acting, even after several years pass. The above is actually not even a movie scene, it's art. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 20th June 2024.

For al Pacino to act blind through our the whole thing must of been a real hard thing to do.But he pulled it off, Chris o donnell played a good part in this film as Charlie the young prep school student.

[@atlbrysco6198]

SO this movie came out when I had *just* gotten out of the US Navy as a veteran of Desert Storm. I have all these years somehow missed watching it although I would see glimpses of it on KZbin all these years later (this one, the ending scene, etc). Just the other night I bit the bullet and rented the entire film on Amazon. WOW - that's all I can say. There is some dating to the film, but other than that it has become one of the most amazing in my collection! Al Pacino is the bright star in this - playing a blind man (and a bitter veteran) is incredible; the way his eyes never focus on someone or anything is a very hard skill to gain - and yet he did it portraying a blind man perfectly. As far as his "past" in Fort Benning (where I was born) is so realistic and building up to who he plays in the movie seems to contribute to his bitterness and reality to the point it's scary (my father retired as a two star general in the Army and never made three star for "being passed over"). I can recommend this entire movie to anyone and everyone - it's almost scary the way it took me back to my childhood being in private school at the age of Charlie and having to come home to my father during the holidays. I give the performances and all a 5 star plus. NOTE: edited for Grammar and spelling.

[@LionZebra]

If you were in the navy (and that’s a big if), did they teach you to fight or to talk?

[@atlbrysco6198]

@@LionZebra Oh yay - it seems I find the one troll that watches these scenes and instead of intelligent discourse, decides to be confrontational. Actually, in the Navy they teach you both - how to fight and how to talk - and also how to be intelligent enough to assess a situation and determine that sometimes, one is better than the other. Considering that I served on a Command Flagship, it was critical to know both. In your case, it's obvious that you have not learned that skill yet; had you, you could have disagreed with my comment with a "thumbs down" or something other than a one-liner that drips with confrontation and derision. I'm frankly surprised you even watched this or cared considering your profile is nothing but tired electronica playlists. My exploits - both good and bad - are documented in many places including the US governments records. As of yours... well - 'nuff said. When you have something intelligent to contribute let me know. RBS

[@LionZebra]

@@atlbrysco6198 Lol! Get back to your video games! Even if you ever were in the navy, you’re nothing more than the ticket guy on a train. Trying to sound like the navy makes you special, educated, or sharp is like a clown who thinks others are fooled to think cleaning toilets on a ship or licking the feet of superiors most of the time makes him a genius! As the Marines say, the only use the navy has is to give a ride to and drop off the real men trained with the skills for actual combat.

[@tuoerming]

First time I watched this time I was 12, it shakes my soul every time I watched it

[@kurtrindgen4708]

Randy deserved every bit of that.

[@spiritanimal8836]

Imagine speaking to your uncke like that! Disgusting

[@strouselawoffices4388]

Willie's look of exhaustion at 3:59 is great. It's a time lapse mechanism supreme. You can tell from his look, no matter how long they've been at that dinner table, that it has been the longest thanksgiving holiday of his life. I guess it's the combination of a big brother's love and pity for Frank's condition that prevents him from calling Frank out for his bullshit. Randy, on the other hand, feels no such attachment. He's aggravated by Frank's bullshit. He's not only going to get in his face, but he's going to try and embarrass him too. In fact you can tell that Randy's a little pist at Gary for wanting to give Frank a pass with "It's over and done with."

[@ladymoremwendo2764]

And the comeback frank used was Giles voice of nervousness or unsatisfied 😂😂😂 5:40

[@atlbrysco6198]

You *SO* succinctly nailed the critique of this scene (which is one of the most iconic of the movie) it is at this point, I couldn't add anything better. However, after this Thanksgiving a few days past, I just wish mine went so well... 😀 I would have killed for an "Uncle Frank" at the table to distract!

[@vicki5947]

In some families yes. It's usually the super bitter individuals in families that like to poke the bear and then cry foul when things get flipped on them. But then again, that's most Americans.

@@derfer007 The classic "Scent of a woman" scene above is actually an enactment and reflection of global society, not just American society🙂 Great scene, great realism🙂 The different characters portrayed by the actors and actresses in the scene above, exist in global society at large, not just in American society🙂 Regards, Michael M.

This scene shows how emotinally vulnerable Frank is. He starts insulting Randy who insults Frank back. Frank gets Gale's name wrong twice. Randy is annoyed but simply corrects Frank. Randy is so articulate that Frank is not able to defend himself or insult Randy back. Frank relies on violence to end the scene.
