Sail On Sidney Lumet

Most people won't know his name, but he directed "Serpico", "Dog Day Afternoon", "The Verdict" and "Network", which might have the best scene ever:



Sail on. You changed movies. And I thank you so much for that.

And take the time to watch the whole thing. So many movies these days don't commit. Sidney committed.
Take me for what I am, a star newly emerging.
I accept the new found man, and I set the twilight reeling.

Sail On! Dog Day Afternoon is still one of my favorites.
