  Dog Day Afternoon (1975)

From Amazon: A gripping true crime yarn, a juicy slice of overheated New York atmosphere, and a splendid showcase for its young actors, Dog Day Afternoon is a minor classic of the 1970s. The opening montage of New York street life (set to Elton John's lazy "Amoreena") establishes the oppressive mood of a scorching afternoon in the city with such immediacy that you can almost smell the garbage baking in the sun and the water from the hydrants evaporating from the sizzling pavement.

Dog Day Afternoon Movie Review by Valerie (12/15/2006)

Al Pacino and John Cazale star as Sonny & Sal, two bank robbers ready to make a simple job and get the hell out, but what should have been a routine robbery became a media circus.

Dog Day Afternoon takes place in the span of a day and how the frustrated bank robbery progresses, it's amazing how much was done with such a...
