Dog Day Afternoon (1975) ปล้นกลางแดด On a hot Brooklyn afternoon, two optimistic nobodies set out to rob a bank. Sonny (Al Pacino) is the mastermind, Sal (John Cazale) is the follower and disaster is the result. Because the cops, crowds, TV cameras and even the pizza man have arrived. Pacino and director Sidney Lumet (collaborators on Serpico) reteam for this boisterous comedy thriller that earned six Academy Award nominations (including Best Picture) and won an Oscar for Frank Pierson’s street-wise screenplay. Based on a true incident, Dog Day Afternoon “is one of the big ones, swarming with energy, excitement and drama” (Gene Shalit, Today/NBC-TV).
