Official The Irishman Thread

[Scientific]

I have never watched Once Upon A Time in America? Is it worth watching? I loved The Irishman, Goodfellas, and Casino. Since I loved all three of those movies will I like Once Upon A Time in America?

Watch it.

shyt was weak and extra. Overacted by Pacino.

shyt was weak and extra. Overacted by Pacino.

Only scene I think he kinda over acted was when he spazzes out on his team. Outside of that, he's playing an outgoing charismatic character so I don't know what else people want him to do. He show's great examples of contained rage in his scenes with DeNiro and Pesci towards the end. The way he portrayed Hoffa's stubborn, arrogant, and oblivious nature was Oscar worthy.

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Hoffa thought he was untouchable. Stubborn ass dude.

Russ and Frank told him multiple times to slow down, cats wasn't appreciating what he was doing but he was still

Hoffa knew what they was about and still wanna go rogue

Jimmy Hoffa was the mob's version of 'Pac. Had the charisma and the potential to change the game, but so much a hot head especially after released from prison that someone was bound to get him. And it's still an unsolved case.

The parallels are uncanny

Who was more corrupt, Hoffa or the Kennedy family? Back in the day was hoffa viewed as evil and corrupt by most of america?

Yo who was Frank the narrator talking to

They said take your $1.5M in pension and chill somewhere he went

That's damn near $8M in today's money.

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

most of these biopics aren't thoroughly factual.

I know that much. But the MAIN plot of the story is fake. I can see names, dates, location and dialogue, but the entire premise?

This would be like if Malcolm X ended with him being killed by a Chinese guy

 

[OJ Simpsom]

Yo who was Frank the narrator talking to

Us.
