Title: I HAD TO CHECK MY DAY PLANNER...
Product review: and make sure it wasn't 1975 and I was late for high school. DePalma's got the mood and atmosphere so exact I was certain I could still get Chrysler stock at $3.00 a share. CARLITOS WAY is another Pacino character development exercise that probably would be better remembered had it not come on the heels of his Oscar winning work in SCENT OF A WOMAN. What is unforgettable is Penelope Ann Miller's stage/pole dance sequence (I can't listen to Cheryl Lynn's "Got To Be Real" the same way again). A lot of familiar faces from other Pacino work and the usual great half dozen quotable lines. Sean Penn deserved a Best Supporting Actor nomination...the high perm alone should have nailed it for him.
