You can bring home one of Al Pacino's famed gangster roles to high-def this May. Carlito's Way will be released on Blu-ray on May 18. We have no pricing details or cover art as of yet, but you can take a look at the special features below. The film stars Al Pacino, Sean Penn, Penelope Ann Miller, John Leguizamo, Ingrid Rogers and was directed by Brian De Palma.
Carlito Brigante is released from jail after serving five years of a much longer stretch. He vows to go straight and to live life as a fine, upstanding citizen. He even rekindles a romance with his ex-lover. However, Carlito's associates cannot seem to leave him in peace...his nephew involves him a pool-room gunfight, his lawyer asks him for "favours" which spiral out of control, and even an old friend (now a wheelchair bound paraplegic) tries to get him into trouble with the law. Carlito decides to make a run for Florida and the promise of a new life, but has one final dramatic escape to make from some hoods who believe (wrongly) that he was behind the murder of their boss.
