I'm Just Getting Warmed Up

You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask.
As said by Lt. Col. Frank Slade (Al Pacino) in Scent of a Woman:
[...] You think you're merely sending this splendid foot soldier back home to Oregon with his tail between his legs, but I say you are… executin' his soul! And why? Because he's not a Bairdman. Bairdmen. You hurt this boy, you're gonna be Baird bums, the lot of ya. And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, FUCK YOU TOO! [..]

I don't care if this is hip to say or not. I love this movie. Great work by Pacino, screenwriter Bo Goldman and director Martin Brest. Many great scenes in this movie (Al's introduction, his hotel breakdown, the Thanksgiving dinner scene to name a few) but this is the best. Some people complain Pacino was over-the-top in this movie. Yeah… and … ?
Oh and great score by Thomas Newman as well
As I mocked at the time, "Hoo-hah, gimme an Oscar!" This is the kind of performance spoofed so well in Tropic Thunder in which big a Hollywood star plays a "differently abled" person , but not "the full retard."
I thought Pacino should have won the other Oscar he nominated for that year, supporting actor in Glengarry Glen Ross.
I actually like Scent of a Woman better now than I did at the time. I'm getting soft as I get older.
