Dog Day Afternoon (DVD)

On a hot Brooklyn afternoon, two optimistic losers set out to rob a bank. Sonny is the mastermind, Sal is the follower and disaster is the result. Because the cops, crowds, TV cameras and even the pizza man have arrived. The well-planned heist is now a media "circus".

Al Pacino and director Sidney Lumet reteam for this boisterous comedy thriller that earned six Academy Award nominations (including Best Picture) and won an Oscar for Frank Pierson's streetwise screenplay.

Based on a true incident.
