Second last clip looks like Gangs of New York.

dead (or rather, that the movie was made private)


Not a perfectly replaced embed, but it has all the content it needs, plus a slight bonus feature

Statistics show that crime rates are higher among cops than among the general population. The job attracts the wrong people. I guess it has been that way since "Gangs of New York" days. The culture has to change so that more decent people stand a chance as a police officer and want to be one to begin with. I say start with more restrictions and scrutiny than the general public. Being a representative of the law should mean you have to be held to a higher standard not a lower one. Many will complain but only with drastic change will the job attract the right people.

I have to defend Gangs of New York since to me that was hardly a nothing film. It had the quality of a period piece to where you felt like you were IN mid 19th century New York. Perhaps the movie was a bit longer than it needed to be but after re-watching it again recently I feel that it is up to the Scorsese standard. I do have difficulty remembering Eyes Wide Shut, and the only time I saw it was when it was originally in theaters.

Unfortunately I also lack the fortune of having seen either Goodfellas *or* Casino on the Scorsese side which makes for rather awkward conversations with the rest of the world who has. Same thing for Spartacus or Paths of Glory.

I did, however, watch Barry Lyndon for the first time just a few days ago. Now that is some damn fine cinematography. I know they used special f/0.9 lenses for the candlelight scenes, and it shows.

Upvote for the beautiful selection of music for the montage

i liked gangs of new york! but maybe i'm just a DDL fan

Kubrick, any day of the week.....also, 'eyes wide shut' and 'gangs of new york' both sucked.....in fact, I agreed with everything shuac had to say....especially #7....

Same here, though I enjoy both.

Seven thoughts as I watched this vid:

1. Gangs of New York was such a nothing film. The Departed and Shutter Island were terrific.

2. Scorsese's early work (Who's That Knocking on My Door, Mean Streets, and Taxi Driver) was very artistic. His movies since that time: not so much.

3. "We Are the People is not the same as We Are the People. Let's not fight. Look, I'm gonna make it real simple. We don't pay for the buttons, We throw the buttons away."

4. The only Kubrick film I was really disappointed with was Eyes Wide Shut. That was also a nothing film.

5. Kubrick's movies are timeless and infinitely re-watchable. But then, so are Scorsese's.

6. Kubrick started as a photographer and so his films are meticulous and beautiful, especially Barry Lyndon. Kubrick was an artist through and through.

7. "Hey Dad. There's a strange fella sittin' on the sofa munchy-wunchin' long tics of toast!"

i don't understand, why do people shit on dicaprio? because of titanic?

the guy's a great actor and has been from the beginning (gilbert grape, basketball diaries). since then he's hardly put a foot wrong. gangs of new york? fucking great. catch me if you can? fucking great. even in the beach he was solid. then there's the departed. goes without saying, he was fucking great.

i'm glad he's around, and especially glad he's working with nolan.

Gangs Of New York on IMDB...

No way.

If Scorcese doesn't get this year someone needs to get shot. I thought he would get it at least for Gangs of New York because of his general contributions to cinema.
