Best scene ever!

Rating: 9/10 (15 March 2013)

Godfother 2 was the first movie which Al Pacino and Robert Deniro both had a role in. But they didn't have a scene together! The desire of seeing the 2 best actors of contemporary cinema remained till 1995 when Michael Mann decided to have them in "heat" together. Mann, completely aware about people's expectations, keeps 2 actors away for first 90 minutes of the film. When Pacino as a police officer faces gangster Deniro in a café, the masterpiece begins. What would a police officer say to a gangster who is trying to arrest while He does not have enough evidence? What they talk about is the complete brilliance; life issues, their women and their jobs! Pacino and his hilarious body movements against Robert Deniro who only nods his head! It looks like to be a calm friendly conversation which is not. It's full of sarcasms. They both know one will have to kill the other but they are considering different possibilities. The scene finishes when both characters threaten each other enough. Strange look in Deniro's eyes tells us how much odd and perfect the scene has been.
