Dog Day Afternoon

Directed by Sidney Lumet

When on a sweltering summer day Sonny and his companion Sal attempt to rob a Brooklyn bank, nothing seems to go right for them.

Sidney Lumet’s film, based on a true story, is driven by a legendary performance from Al Pacino, ably supported by John Cazale.

Dede Allen, a frequent collaborator with director Lumet, shows how editing plays a vital part in the overall impact of a film.
