Al Pacino growls his way to Oscar glory as a cantankerous, blind war veteran who takes his student minder (Chris O'Donnell) on a wild weekend fling in New York. From suicidal lows to tango-ing highs with a gorgeous stranger (Gabrielle Anwar), Pacino's grouchy loner proves his bark isn't quite as bad as his sight. Engaging drama with bags of "hoo-aah!"
