10 Most Anticipated Movie Scenes Of All Time

10. Pacino & De Niro Finally Meet On Screen - Heat

Michael Mann's 1995 crime thriller Heat was hyped into the stratosphere for pulling off the coup of finally getting Hollywood legends Robert De Niro and Al Pacino to share the screen.

The duo had flirted with working together for more than 20 years before the stars finally aligned, and though De Niro and Pacino's characters are naturally kept at arm's length from one another for most of the movie due to operating on different sides of the law, they do eventually meet up.

Mid-way through Heat, De Niro's thief Neil McCauley and Pacino's cop Vincent Hanna sit down for coffee, resulting in a superbly written and acted six-minute sequence where the duo discuss their very different lives. 

It absolutely lives up to the brilliance of each actor's esteem, even if Mann's over-the-shoulder shooting style ironically sparked a conspiracy theory that the duo actually filmed their sides of the scene separately with body doubles. 

Thankfully, though, set photos put those bogus claims to bed.
