Cinematic giants, they are not physically very tall, but this has never been a problem since both, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino wear shoes with a discreet elevator system, just like those made by the Italian brand!
A half-century-long friendship, consecrated by Martin Scorsese who directed them in “The Irishman”. We are talking about the legendary Robert De Niro and Al Pacino, two film giants who after decades of success, finally act side by side in a film that promises to become a cult. The film “The Godfather” has already immortalized them in the same story, but they never appeared together. Then came “Heat”, in which they played opposite roles: De Niro was the thief and Al Pacino was the investigator. However, it is in the film directed by Scorsese that one can fully appreciate, for the first time, the talent of these two great actors.
De Niro and Pacino boast a long friendship. They first met in the sixties at the actors’ studio lessons, and they never have lost sight of each other ever since. Their relationship reflects respect and warmth, but also a desire to be together both on set and outside of it.
This, doubtlessly, is a success story and today, after 50 years of a beautiful friendship, theirs is stronger and more mature than ever. Two giants of the world cinema, gathered no only by the inimitable talent, but also by the always elegant style, which betrays their common Italian origins. Rober De Niro and Al Pacino have always stood out for the casual-chic looks that reveal their innate class without excess, without smudging.
Needless to say, Al Pacino has left a more incisive mark on fashion with “Scarface”. Brian De Palma’s film is dominated by three-piece suits in pastel shades, printed and flashy shirts, and pointed boots- a look that has continued to be popular since the 1970s.
If today Al Pacino expresses a rock mood always oriented towards casual-chis, Robert De Niro focuses on the classic without excesses. The sobriety of style that reveals all the greatness of two cinematic giants. Giants for their undisputed talent but certainly not for their physical heights. Both, Al Pacino and Robert De Niro are not taller than 1.80m or more specifically Pacino is only 1.70m while De Niro reaches 1.77m. But, this did not stop them from exceeding, even in fashion. Like other famous colleagues such as Tom Cruise, the secret of their success is also in the choice of shoes with a height increase, tailor-made models inspired by Italian style, refined and trendy, that give extra centimeters of height in total discretion.
