F. Murray Abraham was fiendishly evil, as was the lizard-like Colombian warlord.
Pacino created a character that has become an icon, and that's rare.
Unfortunately, police say the Montana character has spawned many ghetto wannabes, replete with white suit, polyester shirt open to the waist, and pounds of gold chains. No word on blond babes that good-looking, though.
