The best portrayer of the devil on the big screen has to be actor Al Pacino in the 1997 film The Devil’s Advocate, a 2½hour lesson on the sin of vanity. Pacino plays top-shelf law firm boss John Milton who recruits a tenacious young lawyer named Kevin Lomax, played by Keanu Reeves, to work for him in New York City. In this movie the devil isn’t a red-eyed, horned, goateed half-man-half-goat with a pitchfork. The best description of the devil is this: he’s everything you and I have ever wanted and then some. Remember, he’s an angel — he’s a face in the crowd, perhaps the stranger in front of you at H-E-B, just another passenger on the bus.
