47. Carlito’s Way (1993)
The movie is about a Puerto Rican ex-convict who just got out of prison, trying to stay away from drugs and violence despite the pressure around him. The movie, directed by Brian De Palma, stars Sean Penn and Al Pacino, two admired crime actors. And all he wants to do is get out of New York.

The outside of the hospital where Carlito visits his bedbound lawyer is the same one where Vito Corleone is taken in “ The Godfather ” (1972), which also starred Al Pacino. Pacino, by the way, originally wanted to grow a ponytail for the part. But when he visited East Harlem, he saw that none of the men wore their hair that way.
Which De Niro film from 1987 is next? Can you guess?
