Al Pacino claims he donated his entire paycheck to charity after making 'exploitative' gay film
The 84-year-old actor admitted that he 'didn't see it as that when I was doing it' and he was not 'as sensitive' as he could have been back then.
In his memoir Sonny Boy, he opened up about working on the 1980 crime thriller, Cruising, which is about a serial killer targeting gay men on the leather scene. In the flick, which was directed by William Friedkin, he starred as a detective named Steve Burns who finds himself deeply embedded in New York City's gay S&M subculture as he attempts to hunt down a serial killer. The movie initially received bad reviews before the crime epic was ultimately dubbed a classic and Tony Montana became known as his most iconic role.
