In fairness, "The Irishman" can only be regarded as a middle-level film in the old Martin's film universe. There is no breakthrough in the video narrative, everything just stays stable. But why is its word of mouth unanimously praised by both the media and movie fans?
Including myself, I really can't help but give it five stars. Does it really have such a big charm?
Then when you see the last scene, you don’t know if your heart is caught. The old Frank spent his last life through the crack of the door, sighing, embarrassed, lonely, and embarrassed. This is the last time of the most powerful killer of the year.
Look at the union chairman Jimmy played by Pacino. In the end, he died unexplainably. The family did not even see the body and was cremated. There is also our gang boss Russell, who lost his teeth and was paralyzed by a stroke. In the end, he was a weak old man.
And their lawyers. When the Irish learned of his death, the first reaction was "who did it?" However, the answer is: cancer.
These gangsters, these legends. In the end, it is no match for the passage of time. Just like the detective in the movie said: Everything is over, they are all dead, who do you want to protect?
Old Frank collapsed in his wheelchair, silent. This is an extremely tragic, inner sadness. Why didn't he say it? Instead, he chose to confess everything to the priest?
Because he has nothing to say, everything is over. He didn't want to confess, he just wanted to talk. He didn't regret his actions, all that was left was a sigh.
Lamented that no one remembered them.
Lamented that I ended up with such a divorce.
Lamented that the times have changed too fast.
No matter what you have been, the scenery was infinitely good, but in the end it was just near dusk.
This is in the play.
Outside the play. Old Martin previously condemned that Marvel is not a movie. "Investors have invested money for them. Who should invest in art films by us authors"? This is old Martin's counterattack against this entertainment-to-death and Marvel era, but in his bones Martin's lament of this "unsatisfactory" film industry is deeply revealed.
Audiences no longer watch our movies, they all go to Marvel.
The former godfather "Pacino" can now only play some supporting roles. He can't let go of his rank, and can't play a comedy role like De Niro's "De Niro Grandfather";
Although De Niro took a lot of plays, the price he paid was too great. The bad comedy movies affected his reputation; and Joe Pessi, how long have we not seen Joe Pessi's movie?
Joe Pessi, who used swear words in "Good Guys" back then, is gentle and gentle in this one. In the end, Russell, played by him, waved at us and was gone forever.
Everything flows away at any time.
This is a movie about old guys. It bids farewell to the past and cherishes the memory of the old guy's era. But this era does not belong to them anymore, this is the sadness of old Martin, Pacino, De Niro, Joe Pessi and others.
"The Irishman" is not a great movie, but it is an epic written by a group of great people. It's about time, it's about the past, it's about the soul.
