Scent Of A Woman 1992 - 4 stars out of 5 stars

This may be partially inspired by a 1974 Italian film"Profumo di Donna" that I have yet to see,HOWEVER,this 1992 film's story is outrageous and in many ways to farfetched to believe,but enter Mr Pacino  and yes,you believe.Such is the power of great acting.Rather long at 157 minutes,I had to take 1 star off for the length and out there story.That all said,Pacino in a way I'm not sure they intended when they made this film,honors the many wounded warriors we have in our lives today.The story is straightforward and there is no confusion.Only the believability.For example a blind Pacino dancing a tango with Gabrielle Anwar  and driving a Ferrari fast enough to get a speeding ticket in NYC !!!! You HAVE to see it to believe it but you will.The film however is no comedy.No,honor and coping are at the forefront.Do see it and I shall see that earlier film soon.Trailer URL follows the picture and a IMDB summary is below.

A prep school student needing money agrees to "babysit" a blind man, but the job is not at all what he anticipated.
