* [[Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene]]: Lots, actually, but the scene where Vincent and Neil have a coffee and discuss their lives is probably one of the most iconic in cinema. It helps that it's the first time Robert De Niro and Al Pacino appeared in the same scene together in a film.
* [[Agitated Item Stomping]] : The poor television set did [[Punctuated! For! Emphasis!|NOT]] deserve it.
* [[All There in the Script]]: In the original draft, Hanna was explained to have been a habitual cocaine user, thus enabling him to keep his "edge" at all times. This is never mentioned in the film, but Pacino used it in his performance anyway, thus offering some justification for his at times rather hammy performance.
Line 46:
* [[Large Ham]]: Al Pacino, of course.

* [[Married to the Job]]: Vincent, at the expense of his marriage. And his previous marriage. And the one before that. Neil also, at the expense of any kind of fulfilling personal life whatsoever. It is one of the threads they have in common.
