Scene That I Love: A Meeting With Jimmy Hoffa from The Irishman


Today’s scene comes from 2019’s The Irishman.  In this scene, Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino) asks a former rival for an endorsement to once again be president of the Teamsters union.  Needless to say, things don’t get well.  I’m on Hoffa’s side here.  Showing up 12 and a half minutes late?  Wearing shorts to meeting?  Someone is definitely owed an apology.

Once you get over the admittedly jarring de-aging effect, this scene reminds us of what a great actor Al Pacino truly is.
