Nuts Magazine - ...Tense, pacey thriller...Al Pacino is superb..., Film Review - ...a tart and poignant examination of the politics of fame and corruption...
Additional Information
Al Pacino transforms himself into former all-star publicist Eli Wurman in Dan Algrant's PEOPLE I KNOW. Wurman is a southern-born one-time mover and shaker who is at the end of his rope--and his career. His last major client, Cary Launer (Ryan O'Neal), is an Oscar-winning actor who has Wurman clean up his messes for him; in this case, Wurman has to get drug-addled television host Jilli Hopper (Tea Leoni) out of jail and back to California. But a detour leads Wurman into a secret sex-and-drug den filled with the rich and powerful--and also gets him involved in murder.
PEOPLE I KNOW shares its fast-paced, winner-take-all, back stabbing world with SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS, which also tore apart New York City's hot publicity world. The eclectic cast does a fine job, with Pacino and Leoni standing out. Kim Basinger has a supporting role as Victoria Gray, Wurman's former sister-in-law who offers him the chance to retire to a quiet life on a ranch, but Wurman first has to pull off a politically controversial fundraiser that is making a lot of people upset.

People I Know
"I like that about the movie," Pacino said, "There was an earlier draft in which the crime stuff was more in the foreground, but no, this isn't a crime movie, it's about Eli's personality. He has a key line: 'I just can't stop.' This is what he does. He knows people. He fixes things. He's got his causes. Maybe he's gay, but he's never explored that possibility. He just keeps moving." Eli Wurman is an exhausted New York press agent, taking too many drugs. He is a man torn between compromise and idealism. It is a carefully-tuned performance, in which Eli descends into a long night of drugs and is finally so tired and confused he doesn't know if he has witnessed a murder, or not. Al Pacino plays Eli Wurman, and it a performance that is not over the top but not far from it. His one client, Ryan O'Neal, is caught in a big mess and it concerns a junked up minor actress, Jilli Hopper, played by Tea Leoni. He is not sure what he has seen after he escorts Jilli home- was it murder or was it not? His sister-in-law, Kim Basinger, is his one true defender and the one person who may love him. What a mess he is in. It seems everyone is after him. The dangerous client, the movie star, wants to pay Eli off ,and join a political party and he wants Elliott Sharansky, Richard Schiff to help him win a political seat. Eli needs to take charge of himself, can he do it? Can he get himself together to save things? As one of the plots was critical about the mayor of New York, this film sat on the shelves for two years following the terrorist attacks on the USA of 9/11. We all remember that Mayor Giuliani was a hero. The film came out in late 2002. It has not made a splash. The film is disjointed at times. It is difficult to know where the film is heading. I couldn't quite like Pacino's character. I felt sorry for him, but it is not enough to carry to the film. Recommended.Read full review

People I know-DVD 2004.
Al Pacino plays a New york Agent who has fallen on hard times. He is seen trying to arrange a benefit evening inviting all the "Movers and Shakers" on his home patch,but is hampered by the fact that he hasn't many acts to invite,and both the leaders of the Black,and White community don't really want to bond and so the benfit ends up as a fiasco. The one real star he does represent(Ryan O'Neill) trades an appearance at the benefit if Pacino's character excorts an near junkie TV Star to a secret location in New York.Reluctantly he agrees,and O'Neill is extremely happy to ditch this lady as she has become a liability. She is then murdered ,but Pacino high on Opium from his evening with the starlet is not sure what he is seeing,and he unwittingly gets too involved in her murder,and the murderer is determined to kill him thinking they were caught in the act!. It all ends in tears ofcourse,but the film is remarkable for a great performance from Pacino who for once is not playing his usual gangster portrayal,and a cameo for Ryan O'Neill who I haven;t seen in a film for a very long time!.Read full review
