About “Looking for Richard”:
Looking for Richard is a 1996 American documentary film directed by Al Pacino, in his directorial debut.

The film was featured at the Sundance Film Festival in January 1996 and it was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival. Al Pacino won the Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directing – Documentaries.
