About the event
On a stifling Brooklyn afternoon, first-time bank robbers Sonny and Sal walk into a local branch expecting a quick cash grab. Instead, they find an empty vault, a room full of hostages, and a rapidly escalating circus outside. As law enforcement, news crews, and crowds of cheering onlookers swarm the street, Sonny transforms from a desperate amateur into an unlikely antihero fighting a system stacked against him.
Directed with electric urgency by Sidney Lumet and driven by an unforgettable, explosive performance from Al Pacino, Dog Day Afternoon (1975) is a taut, funny, and deeply tragic masterpiece of New Hollywood cinema. Based on an astounding true story, this Oscar-winning classic remains one of the most intense and human crime dramas ever committed to film.
