Continuing an occasional series. Some people may be surprised to hear that Al Pacino loves Oscar Wilde’s Salome<\/em>. He acted in a stage version of the drama in 1992<\/a> playing Herod to Sheryl Lee’s Salome (the Godfather versus Laura Palmer), and in 2006 announced an intention<\/a> to make a drama documentary about the play. He talks about his interest in Wilde’s work here<\/a>. IMDB currently has a page showing a 2011 release for Wilde Salome<\/em><\/a> by Al Pacino but the film’s release has already been subject to delays.
