Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro, a very long film. Of course, most of Lao Ma's films are relatively long. As I said earlier, I am not interested in his films. If the timeline is extended, the characters may be full. But the storytelling is greatly reduced. Every gangster story looks the same. Money, drugs, women, conspiracy, betrayal. Compared with American gangster films, I prefer Hong Kong ones.
Gambling is something I have never been too fond of, but greed is one of the original sins, so there should be few people who can resist the temptation to gamble. You don't gamble doesn't mean you are money like dung, but your temptation is not enough, when When you know that a dollar can be put into a machine and it becomes a hundred and one million, whether you have thought about it or not, you will always give it a try.

And after watching Casino, I realized that gangsters are not just the American dream. Say, what is the difference between the Sopranos and the capital bureaucracy? The family members know cooking very well!
