The 2 wannabe gangsters in the shoestore


The 2 wannabe gangsters that came into Ellen Barkin's shoestore and blew Al Pacino's cover, what was with them? What kind of a gangster says "let's blow" to another guy.....or at least that's what I heard? That was REALLY bad writing imo. Aside from this, I love this movie!

I also love this movie and yes, that scene is just terrible lol. What gets me is the fact that the Pacino character totally could have avoided that entire confrontation and just pretended like he didn't recognize those guys. Idk about anybody else out there, but causing a confrontation at your girlfriend's workplace by giving two random clowns a stare down is just silly and avoidable lol
