He’s audacious. He’s outrageous. He’s Al Pacino’ The New York Times_________________________________________________________________________To the wider world, Al Pacino exploded onto the scene like a supernova.He landed his first leading role, in The Panic in Needle Park, in 1971, and by 1975, he had starred in four movies - The Godfather and The Godfather Part II, Serpico, and Dog Day Afternoon - that were not just successes, but landmarks in the history of film.In reality, Pacino was in his mid-thirties by then, and had already lived several lives.Growing up in New York City’s South Bronx and raised by a loving but mentally unwell mother, Pacino worked odd jobs to support himself. But, in good times and bad, in poverty and in wealth and in poverty again, through pain and joy, acting was his lifeline, its community his tribe.Exploring his iconic roles, essential collaborations, and important relationships, as well as the ever-present struggle between creativity and commerce, Sonny Boy is the revelatory account of an incredible life.This is the memoir of a man who has nothing left to fear and nothing left to hide._________________________________________________________________________‘From rough beginnings in the South Bronx to iconic fame in Hollywood . . . Pacino’s volatile but beloved mother called him Sonny Boy, and he takes his intimate, casual tone from that nickname, bringing readers immediately into his worlds as he recounts building a life around his chosen craft.’ - LA TimesPraise for Al Pacino:‘A legend’ Francis Ford Coppola‘Charming, hilarious, a nonstop talker. There is an aspect of him that is like a lost orphan, like this kind of crazy idiot savant’ Diane Keaton‘A wicked sense of humour’ Oliver Stone‘As Michael in The Godfather, Pacino was everything I wanted that character to be on screen. I couldn’t believe it. It was, in my eyes, a perfect performance, a work of art’ Mario Puzo, author of The Godfather‘Comedic, talented, and certifiably insane’ Johnny Depp‘Al is money, the man in charge, making it happen. I got to act with Al Pacino and it was worth more to me than anything’ Samuel L Jackson‘The depth of Al Pacino's artistry is only more overwhelmed by the generosity of his spirit and his warmth.
