Al Pacino & Robert De Niro Turned a 1995 Crime Classic Into Cinema’s Most Untouchable Heist Flick

Film fans know that while Francis Ford Coppola’s sequel to The Godfather features both Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, they never share a scene together. De Niro portrays a young Vito Corleone in flashbacks, alongside Pacino’s Michael Corleone as he takes control of the family. That’s why audiences were thrilled when the two acting legends teamed up with director Michael Mann in 1995, promising a direct on-screen showdown. The result was a landmark heist film – a grand, intense crime epic – which perfectly showcases the incredible talents of both actors.
