19 de jun. de 2007 · 5.0 out of 5 stars The Panic in Needle Park. Reviewed in Canada on June 6, 2013. Verified Purchase. Had forgotten this film I saw decades ago, but it's fantastic. And for an Al Pacino fan it's a must to watch. I really loved it and the supplier sent it on time and in good condition. Just as described.
Remembered mainly as the neophyte Pacino’s launching pad into Godfather stardom, the modestly scaled, harrowing Panic in Needle Park has over the decades proven to be nearly as influential as Coppola’s blockbuster, setting a cinematic template later used by Drugstore Cowboy, Requiem for a Dream, and a good deal of Sundance Channel fodder.
