American was bore in the street

Gangs of New York is translated into New York gangs. It’s really blind. The director wants to say too much and wants to express too much. It’s too superficial to just use gangs to summarize. This is a documentary about the birth of a city and a country. Maybe when we understand why American was born in the street, we can better understand this nation and this nation. BTW, except for the three protagonists who may be fictitious in the play, the whole story is based on the history of 1846-1853, riots, conscription, shopping... I think maybe the three protagonists have prototypes, but they are already in the prosperous development of New York at any time. Submerged in the past, like the last barren tombstone opposite the Golden Gate Bridge...The Hands That Built America (U2)

Does anyone have an English version of the last line?

Finally, they put candles on the corpse. In this way, their friends, if any, can recognize them in the dark, which is provided by the city for free. Shang, Jimmy Spur, Hellcat, McGrawn, and many more people, enemies or friends, now there is no difference.
It took four days and nights for the suppression of the riot to subside. We never know how many New Yorkers died that week before this city was saved. My father told me that everything was born in blood and suffering. The same is true of our great city. Before that, we lived and died in the frenzied years, as if everything we were familiar with was swept away. No matter how they rebuild the city, in the remaining time, it seems that no one knows that you have lived here.

    It took a week to read it, and the length of 2 hours and 46 minutes reminded me of "Once Upon a Time in America." At first glance, director Scorsese couldn't help but feel relieved, and then remembered Amy's complaints on the golden ball. The gang in New York, blood and killing, Xiao Li's forbearance of revenge. The changing times of the ending scenes, the grass luxuriant at the head of the grave, and the previous lines, "No one will remember us." Everything is too late.

    The plot is too weak and too protracted. But Daniel Day Lewis played a three-pointer

Gangs of New York quotes

  • Boss Tweed: You killed an elected official?

    Bill: Who elected him?

    Boss Tweed: You don't know what you've done to yourself.

    Bill: [taps his glass eye with a knife] I know your works. You are neither cold nor hot. So because you are lukewarm, I will spew you out of my mouth. You can build your filthy world without me. I took the father. Now I'll take the son. You tell young Vallon I'm gonna paint Paradise Square with his blood. Two coats. I'll festoon my bedchamber with his guts. As for you, Mr. Tammany-fucking-Hall, you come down to the Points again, and you'll be dispatched by my own hand. Get back to your celebration and let me eat in peace.

  • Bill: I took the father, now I'll take the son.
