Re: Goodfellas: Best Movie Ever

It's a great film but not even the best Scorsese film (Taxi Driver) or the best mafia film (The Godfather and GF2 better)

Re: "True" Remakes - Recommendations

-The Departed. Most people love it, but I think it's one of Scorsese's weakest and the original film is far better.

-Similarly, Insomnia, the original is excellent. Nolan's version, not so much.

Odd response.

Delon was never charged with any crime, like many other people involved in cinema.

Delon, ironically is one of Sean Baker's biggest idols.

Re: Oscar's Best Picture 2025

Glad for Sean Baker, but Anora wasn't the best film of the year. I think it's Sean Baker's 4th best film, that I've seen of his.

Re: Oscar's Best Supporting Actor 2025

Culkin is charismatic but just does the same schtick in everything I've seen him in. Infact, seeing his interviews, I think he's barely acting at all.

So many more deserving performances this year.

It could be a gas leak or carbon monoxide etc.

I've read everything from that to "he was a leader of a religious cult" today. Pointless supposition.

Very sad. He lived a good life, but didn't cope with fame well. I feel sorry for his wife who wasn't particularly old.
