Strictly for the patient, the discerning and lovers of Pure Cinema
In 'SIlences', you had to be jolted out on the very last scene, The Irishman tests your patience a bit more than 'Pather Panchali', but the last 30 minutes is worth the wait of three hours of viewing.
While the movie is set in 1960s, this is a timeless tale, exploring the sanctity of relationships.
Given the last 30 minutes, I just thought that this was the most spiritual gangster movie ever made!!!
Somehow, I was reminded of Ben Hur. But Scorsese will not have us rejoice,but leave us with very important questions about life itself.
Thought provoking!!!
A perfect Christmas gift served on the eve of Thanksgiving!!!.
P.S: Robert De Niro, will be a very strong contender for the Best Actor, with Al Pacino and Joe pesci vying for the best Support Actor roles.
