The film is based on the murder trials of record producer, songwriter and musician Phil Spector. It details the complicated relationship Spector had with his defence attorney, Linda Kenney Baden. Written and directed by playwright David Mamet, this HBO movie has Al Pacino starring opposite Dame Helen Mirren in a movie that said it was "an exploration of the client–attorney relationship".

TV critic Jacqueline Cutler joins the podcast to talk about Pacino's second TV movie, why Pacino would have been aware of Spector from a young age and how Pacino once sang to her during an interview.

All About Al: The Pacino Podcast is written, produced and presented by Mark Searby.
