Los Angeles, Apr 19 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Actor Al Pacino recently played
Dr. Jack Kevorkian in a movie, and he said about the experience that
it was a role to kill for. Dr Jack Kevorkian is on a missionary for
people who want to die, in the form of an assisted suicide. Pacino
said that he had never met Dr Jack prior to shooting for the movie,
but he had a blast doing the movie ` `You Don’t Know Jack’.

The duo met recently prior to the premiere of the movie. And the Oscar
winner Al Pacino also revealed that Dr Jack has invited him for a game
of poker. Pacino said that, `I spent time just absorbing him. It just
shows you sometimes how ¦ some people don’t understand how to be in
the public eye, how to deal with media and cameras, but [in this
film], with a guy like Jack, you know him longer, you get a sense of
who he is. He’s totally funny and self-deprecating. Big-time smart.’

Meanwhile Dr Jack said that Pacino is a big-time poker player, and he
has invited the award-winning actor for a game of poker. Al Pacino
also confirmed the invitation and said that he would be going to
Detroit soon, to enjoy a game of poker with him.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
