Scent of a Woman (1992)

Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman, Universal Pictures

Jumping forward to the 1990s, Pacino earned his first and only Oscar for best actor in Scent of a Woman.

He plays Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade, a blind, curmudgeonly alcoholic. Chris O’Donnell plays Charlie Simms, a prep school student who is hired to watch over Slade during Thanksgiving weekend.

Pacino’s iconic catchphrase from this movie is “Hoo-ah!” which is repeats several times throughout — there are entire YouTube video compilations dedicated to this — but most notably during his famous courtroom speech.
