Even at 75, Al Pacino is still making news. This time, the Oscar-winning actor is being praised for dropping out of a stage adaptation of a novel written by Norwegian writer and Nazi sympathiser, Knut Hamsun. According to the New York Daily News, Pacino pulled out of a commitment to film a reading as the narrator of a stage adaptation of the novel, Hunger, after learning of the Norwegian Knut Hamsun's Nazi ties and personal relationship with Adolf Hitler. The producers for Copenhagen's Aveny-T Theatre were planning to use the movie star's performance in a hologram that would be projected during performances of the stage production.
