Al Pacino won his first "Best Actor" Oscar for his brilliant portrayal of an overbearing, blind retired Lieutenant Colonel who hires a young guardian (Chris O'Donnell), to assist him. It's a heart-wrenching and heartwarming tale of opposites attracting when they embark on a wild weekend trip that will change the lives of both men forever.
Synopsis: Coming-of-age drama about a college student caring for a cantankerous, yet charming, blind war veteran who wants to do everything sighted people can do, like drive cars.
