Great epic movie. It's not just a mere street gang revenge, it's also a witness to the changing times. In the last thirty seconds, this three-hour chronicle was turned into a drop in the ocean, and it was full of energy. Martin Scorsese, DiCaprio, Daniel Day Lewis. It's worth watching again.

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.

Bill: At my challenge, by the ancient laws of combat, we have met at this chosen ground, to settle for good and all who holds sway over the Five Points: us natives, born right wise to this fine land, or the foreign hordes defiling it.
Native Gangs: Yeah.
Priest Vallon: By the ancient laws of combat, I accept the challenge of the so called "natives." They plague our people at every turn, but from this day out, they shall plague us no more. For let it be known, that the hand that tries to strike us from this land shall be swiftly cut down.
Irish Gangs: YEAH.
Bill: Then may the Christian Lord guide my hand, against your Roman popery.
Priest Vallon: Prepare to receive the true Lord!

Bill: Is this it, Priest? The Pope's new army? A few crusty bitches and a handful of rag-tags?
Priest Vallon: Now, now, Bill, you swore this was a battle between warriors, not a bunch of Miss Nancys. So warriors is what I brought.
