Mr. Sohal met Al Pacino at the 2020 BAFTAs, where he was for the film The Irishman.

It is rare for anyone to have an original poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs, and video/DVD sleeves.

This crime drama was directed by Sidney Lumet and stars Al Pacino, John Cazale, James Broderick, and Charles Durning. It was inspired by a real-life bank robbery in the early 1970s. The robbery took place in order to fund a sex-change operation for his trans wife. The title of the film refers to the hottest days of summer - dog days. Pacino gives a great performance and was nominated for an Oscar. The film is notable for having no musical score, with the exception of three diegetic/source songs.
