This good-looking entertainment film by Scorsese is a classic. Because it has good editing, good music and good script, it is full of big acting artists, and the acting is so exciting. The lines are classics in the classics, the plot is compact, and the wonderful fragments abound, although it lasts two and a half hours. , After reading it, it's still not enough.
Two points are impressive.
1. Wonderful lines, Quentin Tarantino didn't know how to be jealous after reading it.
2. Halfway through the movie, I thought that if Leonardo DiCaprio couldn't get the Oscar based on this, the judges would be blinded. He really grew up, and he is an acting school. It really has the atmosphere of De Niro. In contrast, Matt Damon is still a fool. Hey-hey. It's better than that. DiCaprio is so cool. No more butterscotch.
Some wonderful lines I like. I don’t know when I can find this script on the Internet. It’s really enjoyable. It’s almost every word. It’s cool to read:
Costello (Jack Nicholson's role): "I don't want to be a product of my environment, I want my environment to be a product of me. "
I don't let the environment shape me , I want my environment to be a product of me .
Costello: "When I was your age, they used to say you could become cops or criminals, What I'm saying is this: `When you're facing a loaded gun, what's the difference?'"
When I was your age, people said you could be a policeman or a criminal. I'm telling you now,'When you are facing a loaded gun, what is the difference between what you are? '
Dignam (the role of Mark Wahlberg) "`My theory on feds is they're like mushrooms - feed'em shit and keep'em in the dark,'"
I think the FBI is just like mushrooms-feed them some rubbish and put They closed the small black room (don’t tell them anything).
Hahaha, I
also like Dignam’s mantra "No Gua-ran-fucking-tee!"
:p
Queenan (Martin Sheen's role): We are doing everything in our power to keep YOU safe, Billy. We need the right time to nail Costello!
Billy Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio's role): Bullshit! What the fuck are you fucking waiting for? Honestly, do you want him to chop me up and feed me to the fucking poor?
Queenan (Martin Sheen's role): We have done our best to protect you, Billy. We are waiting for the opportunity to get Costello!
Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio's role): Fart! What are you waiting for TMD? Honestly, do you wait for him to unload me and feed it to the working people of TMD?
Ellerby (the role of Alec Baldwin): You got the job because you have immaculate record. Some people don't like immaculate record. I do. I'm immaculate.
I chose you because you have a perfect record. Some people don't like perfect people, I like them. I am perfect.
Ready to go see it again. :)
Guardian interviewed Scorsese about this movie, interesting:
http://arts.guardian.co.uk/features/story/0,,1888203,00.html
"Martin Scorsese is still attracted to a world where morality doesn't exist, where it is impossible to sin-which may be why he's never won the Oscar he covets. "
"Martin Scorsese still yearns for a world with no moral concept, where the concept of'crime ' does not exist. This may be him So far, he can’t get the Oscar statuette he longed for."
