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. Those performances became legendary and changed his life forever. Not since Marlon Brando and James Dean in the late 1950s had an actor landed in the culture with such force. But Pacino was in his mid thirties by then, and had already lived several lives. 'Sonny Boy' is the memoir of a man who has nothing left to fear and nothing left to hide. All the great roles, the essential collaborations, and the important relationships are given their full due, as is the vexed marriage between creativity and commerce at the highest levels.
