Hollywood gets it right for a change: Al Pacino plays
the real-life Frank Serpico,
the heroic New York cop who fought against racism and police corruption.
Note: This was the last time (1973) that an Italian-American actor
was allowed to portray an unabashedly positive main character.
(Nope, sorry, Rocky Balboa doesn't count.
Before he gets his chance in the ring,
Rocky, played by Sylvester Stallone, earns money by working for a loan shark.)
