Al Pacino dipped his hands and feet in wet concrete - and quipped about the unseemly behavior of his gangster characters.

"I had a thought that some of the roles I've played might have predestined me to be in cement," he joked Thursday. "But this is a different kind of day, so I thank you."Pacino, who won an Academy Award for "Scent of a Woman," left his imprints in the forecourt of Mann's Chinese Theatre alongside those of a host of Hollywood legends.

Pacino gangster roles have included "Scarface" and "The Godfather" movies.
