And, it goes without saying, the editing by Dede Allen is brilliant. As Sonny, Al Pacino once again gives a virtuosic performance.

We understand this bruised, bitter, eccentric so well that he enlists our sympathy and, rather, dangerously, overlook at least some of the results of his tortured desperation. This may well be Al Pacino's most perfectly realized performance. John Cazale is shyly and sorrowfully eloquent as Sal, Chris Sarandon is scarred to the soul as Leon, and there are fine performances from Penny Allen, Sully Boyar, James Broderick and Judith Malina (as Sonny's disturbed mother). "Dog Day's Afternoon" is aware, to a alarming degree, of the hostilities in city life that can stimulate a demented search, like Sonny's, for freedom, for an idealized escape. It is a must-see movie.

CLEVELAND CIRCLE 566 SPECIAL BARGAIN MATINEES bjE A WjL.O.1 ll (SPECIAL BARGAIN MATINEES JU4vUJpc SIDE irrrdS KMrasLa 310 503 at Routes 1 tcrnoon," at Cine-1 ma 57. is a riv- a i movie based on a highly publicized robbery attempt of a small bank in Brooklyn on Aug. 22, 1972. By turns manically funny, slyly terrifying and strangely provocative, it somehow reaches beyond its format to make startling comment on the rampant panic of contemporary life. Directed by Sidney Lumet, from a screenplay by Frank Pier-son which sentimentalizes some of the hard facts into attractive fiction, it is, by any measure, one of the i i movies of the year.

SoniiV and Sal, street--drifting Vietnam veterans, invade a neighborhood branch of The First National Bank with the help of a young friend. Although Sonny has some inside knowledge of bank workings, the team is inexperienced and nervous. Sonny has sworn a clean job, no violence, no blood. The first thing to go wrong is the defection of the young friend who simply can't go through with it, and the Came lot 53 4 3i0 5 7V the other in Bellevue recuperating from Sonny's threats. The Bellevue wife is brought to the scene and it turns out that he's a young man named Leon, whom Sonny married in a gay wedding attended by seven male bridesmaids.

Leon, in fact, is Sonny's motivation for the attempted robbery. To ease his male wife's psychological hang-ups, Sonny tries to steal enough money so that Leon can have a transexual operation. Apparently, all this is straight fact, no pun intended. What is slightly crooked, however, is the come-on charm given to the characterization of Sonny, whose warped, possibly murderous personality is developed as though he were little more than a slap-happy butterfly. Early in the game Sonny becomes a hero to the onlookers in the street, a rebel storming the Establishment and, like a literal Robin Hood, scattering the bank's money to the masses.

Later, when his bisexuality is revealed, he's gestured at and jeered, although Gay Lib arrives to cheer him on. The cross-currents in "Dog Day Afternoon" make it like no other movie I've ever seen. The mad farce stands on the edge of inescapable disaster and Lumet never lets us forget that our easy laughs, in effect.j cost a terrible price. Lu-met's direction is wonderful, the balance between an in-depth, psychological probing in the intimate scenes (particularly in a KILPATRICK CEO ANNE S0SA BARBARA CARRERA by PHILIP PA SLOW D.rfd.d by FRANK UUGHLIN PG BOSTOM SACK GARY 131 STUAftT ST.

Rattled but determined, Sonny, who is smarter than Sal, who simply sinks into almost total defeat, finds himself playing a role, acting the tough. When the police arrive, he threatens the lives of several hostages, a genial manager, eight female tellers and an old black guard. But the truth is that he is gently protective of his charges: "I don't want to shot anyone, I'm a Catholic." Meanwhile, outside the police forces mass.

The FBI is called in. Onlookers line the entire block, with neighbors watching from tenement windows. The media moves in and the robbery attempt is turned into a bizarre and dizzying carnival. When, for example, Sonny asks to see his wife, the police rush off to find her.
