4. That movie broke my heart. |
|
When I was a kid in Chicago, it used to come on WGN about twice a year--watched it every time. Rod Stieger was absolutely AMAZING in that part.

5. I never realized how many good films he made until I saw that |

6. Scorsese was crying when Lumet went up for the award. |
|
And the audience was listening with rapt attention when Al Pacino was talking about him. I'd say that Sidney Lumet is highly respected and admired in Hollywood.
