OP here, I meant to say gayest film of all time. My bad bros that was a typo.
Frick you
>Frick me
You really are gay
I'm going rape you like Noodles raped Deborah then get super high on opium
Only thing you're raping is your arteries, fatty.
I feel like nobody has seen this. Whenever I bring it up to people they think i mean the tarantino movie
It was a be bomb when it released in theaters because of how much they edited to be terrible. Most people don't watch movies that are 3+ hours long and actually digest what they're seeing and with that being said if they ever release the 5 hour version with everything restored then nothing will rival how kino it is.
It's 4 hours long. Any film that long will always just be prized by a small audience
lawrence of arabia gets much more attention than ouatia in this board, and it really feels like a 4 hour movie. this feels like 2 hours.
>lawrence of arabia
It's better.
Understand now?
the music and it's use is worse just to give one example
are you the one that thought the story was rediculously stupid?
No, I'm the one who said the story was rediculously stupid and Iv never seen Lawrence of Arabia
ok
why did you think it was stupid?
It's rediculous cause max fakes his death and assumes a new identity but marries someone from that previous life and then wants noodles to come back and kill him cause other gangsters want to kill him anyway, noodles rapes a chick and when he returns it's just glossed over like it never happened, also the fact the film doesn't show any of noodles character development in the inbetween years, he just goes from being a ruthless gangster to being a meek old man with no real reflection on how this change occured in the intervening years apart from "oh well his friends got killed" again gangster number 1 tells a similar story much much better
max and deborah couldn't stand each other when they were kids. deborah always wanted to get to the top. after noodles rapes her and leaves, max gets all the power, and doesn't have to be a two bit punk like noodles was until the federal reserve bank job. that is her way of getting revenge. there's also no character development inbetween because he says "i've been going to bed early".
>there's also no character development inbetween because he says "i've been going to bed early".
You must be very easily impressed
there is nothing to show
>there is nothing to show
It went for 4 hours and there was no character development worth showing despite a complete change of character during the time skip?
what did you want to see? he being a good citizen? respecting the law? helping the old lady cross the street?
Some actual character development
you want to see good deeds in a gangster movie?
I want to see the actual development of how he changed, some reflection on his choices, some inner turmoil instead it just skips all that and has him be a meek old man who barely says 2 words in the future scenes, might be forgivable in a 90 minute flick but it's 4 hours long
>I want to see the actual development of how he changed, some reflection on his choices, some inner turmoil
hardly cinematic
>Character development isn't part of good movies
Kek
>sits and thinks about the evil he's done
great movie
Couldn't be more boring than the rest of this overrated shitheap of a movie
>overrated
by who
>boring
great criticism
I already wrote a longer criticism earlier
first ridiculous, now boring
what's next?
It can't be both boring and have a rediculous plot?
You're not making the story sound any less rediculous
that's women for you
truth really is stranger than fiction
>truth really is stranger than fiction
He said to justify the moronic plot of a fictional story
it's has once upon a time in the title, yes
Then what's your issue with me saying the plot is rediculous?
because it's not
it takes truth and tells it better than any other story without sugar coating it
If it told "truth" better than any other story then the movie wouldn't be shit but it is
what would be a better story? deborah going to the police after seeing noodles again?
Almost every other gangster movie is a better story
tell me one where you see the protagonist being a good citizen
What the frick are you even talking about? I never said the character should turn into a "good citizen" and Iv already said twice gangster number 1 tells a similar story but much much better
you both have a problem with the old man part
if you are not the same person
You mean like a third of the movie? Yeah you're right
it's mostly the 30s wtf are you talking about?
>Most of the film
>2 thirds of the film
Yes
it's not a third it's way less than that
Lawrence of Arabia is legendary and highly influential. This movie was a disastrous mess at release so it didn't have the same impact
>at release
only in america
Really? I think Lawrence of Arabia zips by.
LoA sucks, bunch of bullshit about life and politics in the desert, who cares? Once upon a time is fricking classic because it’s about a real close up example of life.
>real close up example of life
>early 20th century New York israelites who don't speak a single word of Yiddish
>they don't even look israeli
>nothing israeli about them
>literally Italians with a different labels because it was made by Italians
It’s such a reminder of how many people are NPCs. If something is good, and you enjoy it, why would you want it to be over quick?
>NOOOOO, 3+ hour movies and sports games are LE BAD. I don’t want my money’s worth
These are the sentiments of someone who has watched episodes of The Office over 30 times
you act like there's some sort of guarantee that you'll like it
if you watch it for 4 hours just to rate it a 6/10 at the end then that's pretty much just a waste of time
In reality, sports and films are all a waste of time, but I enjoy them. That’s why I’m paying for those experiences, whether with time or money, or both. A film being good or bad has nothing to do with the runtime. If it’s bad, it’s because it’s bad. I would rather the slight inconvenience of wasting time on a bad film that I wasn’t able to filter out before I ever watched it, than have the good ones constantly and systematically cut and watered down to appease the attention spans of the filthy, whiny masses of “people” who aren’t even actual humans with souls.
often people lack attention span, but on the other hand for people who aren't neets 4 hours are a good chunk of their free time
when I was memed into watching Love Exposure I didn't care that much because I didn't really have anything better to do, but nowadays I'd be mad
not that it's shit, just not worth it when I could have watched two equally good movies in the same time
just watch it in parts. i always do that with long shit, intermission style. or finish next day. its not like i'll forget anything
Just tell people that underaged Jennifer Connelly gets naked and then they'll watch it.
literally perfect genetics
I seen it but it's been like 8 years and I don't remember any of it
Because it's not worth remembering, it's crap
bullshit I just watched that webm of ghetto ballet cutie and remembered most of the opening act
>Immediately remembers the bits with child prostitution
What a shock
>child prostitution
you haven't seen the movie
Peggy was a child prostitute you moron, clearly you didn't watch the movie
not only did peggy appeared later but she chose that life, no one force her. that is one of many things that this movie does well
>she chose that life, no one force her
How does that change the fact she's a child prostitute? Most prostitutes choose that life
then why it's not worth remembering?
>There's nothing wrong with child prostitution aslong as they choose to do it, it's a child's choice bigot
oh ok nice one i took the bait
There was no bait to get taken. You just a fricking spastic mate.
no u
>I feel like
you mean "I think"
I first heard about it because it was my philosophy teacher's favorite movie. Didn't ever see it posted here until after I watched it. Nobody else in real life ever knows what I mean when I talk about it and they think I'm talking about Godfather or Heat or Goodfellas.
> will somebody PLEASE answer that damn phone!
It's not my favorite movie of all time but if I were asked to name a perfect movie this is what I'd say. Everything in the movie is masterful.
nah its mid
off yourself zoomie
The young coming of age scenes is what i would call masterful and perfect, also Young Jennifer Conely rest of the movie while still very good couldnt touch the young scenes
The entire soundtrack is incredible
>wopshit
hard pass
It's actually israeliteshit
Dago Documentaries are ok, or can be, sometimes. But their height of civilization was ruining their own country, to come here and do low-rent thug bullshit strong-arming their own peeps.
Pasta sucking guineas are what they are, but with any luck in this century, they will move past that shit.
>Pasta sucking guineas are what they are, but with any luck in this century, they will move past that shit.
LMAO! damn shame, considering Italians have a rich history to get ideas from.
It’s israeliteshit
Italy has created more culture than your entire race will ever do for the rest of human history, you mutt subhumans with the reddit spacing.
I watched this about a month ago, I thought it was shit, the story is rediculously stupid
And yes I watched the 4 hour version
admitting wogs was the beginning of the end for the west
seething atf agents
Maybe the first 2 hours, the second half falls off a cliff
No mob/crime film can be GOAT. Neither can Westerns or Sci Fi while we are at it.
that leaves what romance you fruit
Isn't The Godfather widely considered the greatest film of all-time?
By the fricking normies/IMDb’s top 250 of all time for the longest time. It’s shit. The sequel is better.
It's just a poor man's gangster number 1
Only the near 4hr cut.
Kino.
Wow, never knew she got a nose job until this webm.
b***h deserved the rape though.
You’re fricking trash
She was a bit of a wiener tease.
I found that hard to watch actually
I like it because it's a story about israelites being all around pieces of shit, which is refreshing to see.
Fat Moe's the israeli bar. Serving drinks.
watched the four hour cut several times, indeed its one of the best and greatest movies of all time. i read the book too, which is pretty comfy, but doesnt have any of the 1960s stuff at all.
is there anything in the book missing from the movie?
i'm still curious what's in those scenes that they continue to refuse to show
oops you posted the wrong pic
>actors name aren't align with their faces
I HATE THIS SHIT
Cyrus the Virus is possibly the gayest villain ever.
It's a real triumph in directing in the sense that child actors mog all adult actors except for De Niro.
Who are you kidding? James Woods mogged everyone as usual
I'm almost 30 and I've been meaning to watch this since high school.
>we exported farmhands and re-imported gangsters
uuuhhh, ameribros...
Not even the best mafia movie. Home Alone 2 is the best movie.
It's not even the best "Once Upon a Time" movie.
I dont think anyone understood the ending of the movie that it was all an opium induced dream.
wtached it. fapped with the first 20 minutes then lost the plot and turned it off. went back and finished it but it was a israelitey snoozefest
i thought it sucked ass to be honest
>that sideplot about the underage israeli prostitute
Apparently it's alright according to this guy
cause it was her choice
idk Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom was pretty freaking cool
>Italian director
>makes a movie about gangsters in America
>goes with israelites
because in america most of the big gangsters where israeli, using either italian or irish names, or using italians as a front to hide behind, like meyer lansky. organized crime is almost exclusively a israeli thing around the rest of the world.
it was like half israelites half italians putting spin on it that israelites lorded over italians is wrong and clearly fricking stupid
the highest ranking members in the biggest cities for crime were italian, luciano, masseria, capone, torrio, collisimo, in the some minor cities like philly there were more israelites, israelites were basically side players although important to the operation of the criminal underworld, they could never be the boss of the mafia
ever heard of meyer lansky and arnold rothstein? carlo gambino and his cousin big paul castellano where sicilian israelites. so was joe bonnano. all the big "sicilian" gangsters are sicilian israelites. meyer lansky didnt have to be "the boss", he was the mobs accountant and the money man has all the real power.
This is true, israelites have all the international connections to set up multinational crime networks, and most organised crime gangs are full of israelites or are financed by israelites, the Russian Mafia for instance is almost entirely israeli they just pretend to be ethnic Russians
no it isn't, name 1 israeli gangster who used an italian name
the american mafia was italian first israeli second or third, and irish
jews were side players in the mafia organization, they couldn't be made men
Arnold rothstein invented organised crime in america, he mentored Lucky Luciano, Meyer Lansky, Frank Costello and basically every major figure of the national crime syndicate
define organized crime
also you're full of shit
the italian mafia goes back to the 1890s and the black hand
arnold rothstein was 1 boss out of many bosses in new york, at a few moments in the 1920s he was perhaps the most powerful but he was outnumbered by the italians certainly and after he died new york was basically run by italians for the next 90 years "organized crime" wise
>define organized crime
>Mentions the black hand
Kek you moron, organised crime are when large criminal groups work together to organise and commit a variety of criminal activities on a large scale and across multiple different localities, the black hand was not organised crime it's was rag tag crims running extortion on random targets, that's like saying the local methheads are organised crime cause 3 of them will rob the same person together
the italian mafia was already doing that, starting long before rothstein came up
"organized crime" is kind of an arbitrary phrase, what is organized is a matter of opinion
are you saying that the italian mafia in 1910 wasn't organized, they were just dumbasses and weren't organized
the italian mafia, in america, in 1910, wasnt the mafia, it was just clans in coastal cities extorting italian immigrants and fighting each other. they where hardly anything more than street gangs.
organized crime syndicates existed globally for centuries before 1910. and it wasnt all italianas. there isnt any such thing as the "italian mafia" either. theres the american mafia, la cosa nostra, then theres the sicilian mafia, then theres the camorra and the ndgrangheta, which are other italian organized crime factions, but not considered a part of either the sicilian or american mafia.
>the italian mafia, in america, in 1910, wasnt the mafia, it was just clans in coastal cities extorting italian immigrants and fighting each other. they where hardly anything more than street gangs.
in your opinion
we're clearly referring to the italian mafia in america when we are discussing the italian mafia in america in a thread about a movie called once upon a time in america
thats not only my opinion thats a fact. they where local street gangs with no reach beyond their ethnic slums in 1910. it took over 20 years for them to become the american mafia.
you haven't read shit, you're a moron
you cant refute my arguments so you just call me names like a mad little israelite boy. before the five families and the commission was formed in the early 30s, the mafia was a bunch of glorified street gangs. it was all blood feuds brought to america going back to sicily.
I did refute your arguments, organized crime existed before rothstein in the italian mafia
cry more
You didn't refute shit, you just claimed that an isolated criminal gang was organised crime, it's not
chicago isn't an isolated criminal location, it was the second or third biggest city at the time
and collisimo ran over 200 brothels there in 1910, is that unorganized
he didnt run them, he ran a restaurant and some gambling. his wife ran the brothels, she was the madam prostitute queen of chicago. and he was killed because he didnt want to expand into other venues of criminality. youre literally an ignorant moron.
so are you going to claim that italian mafia families, that didn't deal in heroin aren't organized crime
why would i make that claim when all the mafia families in america and sicily and the italian groups all dealt with heroin? oh wait you dont believe that myth that no mobsters dealt heroin do you?
not all the families dealt in heroin though, you didn't know that, some of them banned it, did they suddenly stop being an organized crime syndicate when they stopped selling heroin
none of them banned it you moron, all the bosses accepted drug money. so long as you didnt get caught it was fine, you get caught though, and you where a dead man. all organized crime syndicates deal in heroin and child porn. all organized crime syndicates are israeli.
just remember that the original argument is that organized crime is dominated by israelites, and youve moved the goalposts so far back and thrown up such a shit storm crying a fit over it. israelites settled all over sicily, and the ones who werent expelled in 1492, converted to catholicism. but they where ethnic israelites, so that blood spread all throughout sicily, just like the moor blood did. that means sicilian mafia families are israeli organizations. just like all the international syndicates all over the world, from eastern europe, to the middle east.
the original argument that your dumb ass made is that the american mafia was run by israelites, but it wasn't, it was run by italians with israelites in important supporting roles like lansky and murder inc, and in some more minor cities like phili
jews didn't run the american mafia, no matter how hard you try to cope
and you are just wrong, plain and simple. and eveyrthing beyond that is just you kicking and screaming and crying like a little israelite boy. italians, especially sicilian, are israelites. literally all of the mafia bosses in america are sicilian israelites. this is just a fact of history.
any proof that italians are israelites
collisimo ran more than a street gang, 200 brothels don't fit on one street
I never said strictly italian, israelites played a supporting role but it was run by italians
You are a literal moron, excluding a single criminal activity is not the same as focusing on just 1 criminal activity, and the ruling against selling heroin was made by the Commission, so it actually was organised crime as a decision came down from the top of the organisation and all below them were expected to follow it
you tried to elevate rothstein to this mythical godlike figure and it just isn't true, he was important for a time, but it wasn't israeli magic making it all work
the american mafia was run by italians
yes and in the commission some families were against heroin, did organized crime stop existing because there was a ruling against selling heroin, were they focusing too much on prostitution or gambling then to be considered organized
italians are israelites, therefore israelites run the italian mafia. rothstein was as important a figure as anyone youve mentioned, having a direct hand in mentoring the men who would become the first real mob bosses. all families sold heroin, none of them where against it. why would any of them be against making money?
no but ok
yes collisimo and the commadore mentored torrio, and enoch johnson, who did organized crime before rothstein
we understand this
>did organized crime stop existing because there was a ruling against selling heroin
The only reason there could even be a ruling on heroin was because they were organised crime, frick you are a moron, go look up the definition you moron
only specific families ruled against it
so did those families stop being organized crime
name one specific family. you cant. they all took drug money moron.
kek enoch johnson was hardly a mafia boss. torrio was mentored and came up in the five points GANG, a collection of street gangs in the five points. rothstein was in power at the same time as collisimo.
it literally takes five seconds to google shit like "sicilian israelites" and youll see lists of names, many names that belonged to several prominent mobsters. joe bonanno, lucky luciano, costello, gambino, castellano, all sicilian israelites. and a street gang isnt confined to one street or one block you absolute reject. israelites where all the advisors and bankers, aka the true and actual power behind the puppet bosses who went to prison every now and then for their israeli overlords.
so I've got to go do your research for you now, why can't you do it
enoch was a top 3 importer, and was arguably just as much behind the idea of the commission as luciano was, he did invite the criminal syndicates from every major city to attend a national meeting
wow israelites that happened to be in sicily took italian names, color me surprised, does that mean every italian who also has that surname is israeli, probably not, and probably just looking up the religious faith of any of the bosses you mentioned would tell you they weren't israeli
ive already done it. if you really where interested in the history of the mafia and organzied crime, and really did like reading about it so much, youd be interested to follow down that path on your own, im not going to hold your hand.
but since you seen to enjoy being an ignorant troglodyte who gets all his perspective on history from movies and tv shows and documentaries produced by hollywood israelites, ill leave you be in your happy little bubble. enoch johnsons influence and involvement is greatly overstated now thanks to hollywood fiction like boardwalk empire.
whoa, youre telling me that israelites would lie about being israeli when they want you to think its only italians out there committing all of the crimes?
i like you how you just ignore everything else that you have no answer for though, someone else might not have noticed but not i.
Gotti was also rumored to be expanding into drug dealing, a lucrative trade Castellano had banned.[51][52]
In August 1983, Ruggiero and Gene Gotti were arrested for dealing heroin, based primarily on recordings from a bug in Ruggiero's house.[53][54] Castellano, who had banned made men from his family from dealing drugs under threat of death, demanded transcripts of the tapes,[53][55] and, when Ruggiero refused, he threatened to demote Gotti.[56]
god you're a dumb piece of shit
>all of the "reading" ive done on the mafia consists of wikipedia articles
jesus christ, what are you even old enough to be shit posting here? yeah i said that if you got caught you died. if you didnt get caught they didnt care. it was a known fact that castellano was accepting drug money from roy demeo and tons of other captains and made guys. he just had a bone to pick with gotti. also gotti married a israelite so all of his kids are israeli.
you got fricking owned and now you're complaining
also post pics of all the names you said were israeli along with their faces, they look fricking german
collisimo had political connections and is the closest thing to boss at that time, close enough for me to call his activities organized crime
rothstein also wasn't the undisputed boss of new york, masseria, and other family bosses existed
I'm guessing some israelites are also named john smith as well
also rothstein was just getting started with his first casino he opened with daddies money when collisimo had already been the boss in chicago for probably 5 years or so
chicago was divided, there was no undisputed boss of the whole city until capone. colosimo may have ran a bunch of brothels and gambling houses, but he wasnt the undisputed boss of chicago, or even of the italian gangs in chicago.
my argument that organized crime is largely belonging to the israelites has not been refuted, youre just spiraling and splitting hairs and proving yourself to be as ignorant as you think i am. anyone who actually knows their shit knows what im talking about. you clearly are just brainwashed on the hollywood image, are an italian american who prides himself on a minority subculture who he has no part in, or are just some kvetching israelite.
You clearly haven't read shit, you don't even know what the definition of organised crime is
organized is subjective
I think there were many criminal syndicates that were organized before rothstein came onto the scene, there isn't anything particularly special about what he did, he just happened to be on the biggest stage
>organized is subjective
Yes but "organised crime" isn't you fricking moron, it refers to specific groups who engage in specific activities, just cause a street gang has a leader doesn't suddenly make them organised crime
the position of what is organized and what isn't is subjective
owning 200 brothels in 1910 requires quite a lot of organization, how many do you currently own
0 yea I thought so
it's entirely arbitrary to rank rothstein as the founder of organized crime when louis kuehnle and collisimo did it before him
its ironic that you point to kuehnle as the grandfather of organized crime when his organization was so much more than colosimos or anyone elses at the time and for decades to come. this only proves to me that youre an uneducated dipshit. your own argument is proving you ignorant and incorrect.
where is the ironic part I'm missing it
comparing kuehnle to guys who ran street gangs and pretending they where the same. also as a non italian political mob boss, youre assertion that american organized crime is strictly italian is false. but of course someone as dense and thick as you would fail to see the irony in your own posts and how you used your own argument against yourself. kuehnle was a israelite lmfao.
Jesus you are a fricking moron, "organised crime" does not mean "well this guy was a criminal and he was organised cause he ran alot of shit" the FBI denied the existence of organised crime for decades but never denied gangs or powerful gang bosses existed because they are 2 different things
Yes that is what I'm saying, Italian gangs were not well organised and they stuck to commuting extortion scams on the people in their neighbourhood, that is not what is considered "organised crime" they were basically just street gangs with very little structure or leadership and a very limited scope in the crimes they commited
I guess you haven't heard of big jim collosimo or john torrio, italian bosses in chicago who killed the black hand
I guess owning over 100 brothels in chicago in 1910 isn't organized enough, how much more do you need to be organized
colosimo was a glorified pimp who was taken out by torrio. torrio was nothing compared to capone. capone wasnt even a sicilian. sicilians are israelite Black folk. theres a reason the rest of italy considers sicilians are all cutthroats, liars and thieves
so at what point do you become an organized criminal enterprise, is 200 brothels enough
when you can manipulate and influence labor and politics. so about 1930s, 1940s, at least in america. and colosimo didnt control those brothels, he married the biggest madame prostitute in chicago, those where her brothels. diamond jim was little more than a gambler.
louis kuehnle ring a bell, political boss of atlantic city all before 1913
he ran an organized crime syndicate
yes and his political machine was much more than a few brothels and gambling houses. he built a city with his connections and put it all together by working with other big figures in the area. same thing with the big seven syndicate, the forerunner of la cosa nostra and the commission. that organization was at least half a century of the italian gangs at the time (1890s-1900s)
You mean Jim collosimo who didn't want to expand into other crimes like selling alcohol? Again part of the definition of organised crime is that the group engages in a multitude of different criminal activities and works with other criminal groups to commit such crimes, so no he was a gang leader but his gang wasn't organised crime as it is typically defined
>works with other criminal groups
this is key here. the old bosses like colosimo, masseria, maranzano, torrio, they didnt want to work with anyone, they where at the top and there was no one else. it wasnt until the younger generation of italian, irish and israeli gangsters came together and took out the moustache petes and formed, the american mafia.
the international syndicates are all israeli. they are above the american mafia. organized crime syndicates come from old parts of the world, eastern europe mostly, all the oldest syndicates are heavily israeli organizations.
what you quoted wasn't true though, the italian mafia wasn't run by israelites
meyer lansky fricked off to florida, he didn't run new york or chicago, and he didn't seem to have any desire to do so
rothstein was 1 man and he died in 1928
not even 1/20th of "big sicilian gangsters" were israeli
jews settled all over sicily just like the moors did. joe bonanno was a sicilian israelite. he ran a mafia family, luciano was a sicilian israelite, and he helped to create the american mafia, along with bonanno and lansky. meyer lanksy set up florida, las vegas, atlantic city and was going to do the same stuff in cuba before castro took over. sicilians are israelite/moor ''italian'' mutts. israeli hollywood producers brainwashed you through their movies and tv shows to think that organized crime is something only italians are involved with, when all around the rest of the world the top gangsters are all israelites. why would it be any different here? it isnt.
>Oy vey goyim, it wasn't us it was those Italian's, they totally ran things despite the israeli gangster's ending up with all the money at the end
Kek
literally not true
literally just schizo rambling that has nothing to do with the reality of the italian mob, and literally post one shred of proof that luciano was israeli
>google "history of israelites in siciliy"
>google "lists of sicilian israeli surnames"
>bonanno
>gambino
>castellano
>luciano
youre telling me this guy, carlo gambino, isnt israeli?
if Leone told this, imagine what he would've told about the siege of Leningrad
>By December 1942 the NKVD had arrested 2,105 cannibals – dividing them into two legal categories: corpse-eating (trupoyedstvo) and person-eating (lyudoyedstvo). The latter were usually shot while the former were sent to prison.
wtf
shit sucks.
Very well shot and acted, story is a bit dry and predictable
I have this poster hanging up in my living room
I love the setting, the costuming, the cinematography, the music; you can tell a lot of effort was put into making the world look and feel authentic. The characters and the plot fall flat, a lot of stuff happens but it drags on at a snail's pace. I know the movie is 4 hours long, but it felt like 8.
>all these people ITT who can't wrap their heads around the films twist
everything that happens after the accident is an opium dream, he goes straight from the scene to the opium den and gets high because he can't stand what's just happened, it's all Noodles imaging that he didn't just accidentally get his best and only friend horribly killed and has this whole escape and adventure and reconciliation and conclusion to the whole thing full of nothing but introspection on himself and his past, imagining how it can all turn out meaningful, which is an all in all representation of how a psychopathic criminal can do horrible things and somehow justify them to themselves, the true end of course being Noodles stuck in this desperate fantasy escapism as he is found and killed by the mobsters for ratting, that last smile meaning multiple things, maybe his complete loss to his own pleasure seeking and complete obliviousness to reality, or a kind of realization at at the end of the tragedy of it that you can only laugh at now that it's about to end
>It was all a dream
Greatest gangster movie of all time kek
I dunno what you're tying to say but yes
There's a frisbee in a modern scene, frisbees were invented 1967, ergo Noodles couldn't have dream it
Take your "it was all a dream" pleb take and shove it up your ass
honestly you could cut out everything after Noodles enters the opium den, that whole act of him as an old man is awful, and the movie would have been way better off
you can watch the us version but it's shit and if you cut the last part it makes even less sense
>and if you cut the last part it makes even less sense
no it doesn't, it's just a bunch of scenes of Noodles going around trying to find out who Bailey is then it turns out Bailey is Max. It's shit.
yes, that's what i said
the us version is shit
It was amazing until the twist.
another thing that all the zoomers in the thread should also remember is that Leone died before the complete version could be finally edited to completion and it was put together by his kids and others who came after him using a lot of damaged material, and the end result while janky in places is a true act of love to have made in the way it was, which is very very well, especially as far as staying true to a dead guy's vision can be
I found it quite boring, but I had already seen too many movies in the same genre by the time I got it. Maybe it would have been more enjoyable if I hadn't seen all those other ethnic organized crime movies first

what a stupid fricking thread kek
>organized crime is israeli
>israelite boy screeching for 100+ posts
hmmm
the italian mafia wasn't run by israelites, no matter how much you want that to be true
jews were side characters
such a boring guinea flick
I only liked the parts when they are still kids
the rest is garbage besides the rape scenes (I fapped to those a lot back in the day)
Gambino despised drugs, and even though heroin and cocaine were highly lucrative, he thought that they would also attract attention. The punishment for a family member dealing drugs, in Gambino style, was death.[29]
imagine getting btfo this bad
Jesus dude stop just copy and pasting Wikipedia
yo you stupid
OP here, wrong pic
saw it a few weeks back and thought it was a drag to get through, just a run of the mill melodramatic gangster movie dragged out for 4 hours, didn't enjoy it at all and didn't think it was particularly good (there's plenty of movies I didn't enjoy but will still acknowledge as being good pieces of cinema)
I watched the first 30 minutes of it and it was actively unpleasant israeliteshit, so I turned it off.
you all know that this film was deliberately tanked by the israelites, right?
that's not even nazi hyperbole, literal israeli spies made sure this film bombed
>4 hours 11 minutes long
Go eatch tik tok you mong
>Italy has created more culture than your entire race will ever do for the rest of human history, you mutt subhumans with the reddit spacing.
>thread about the greatest movie of all time
>they talk about israelites
Only the proper 4 hour cut not the butcher American cut
Pic rel did it better
>A movie about a guy that could've overcome his fears and challenges, reconciled his relationship with his close friends, achieved more in his life than most in a lifetime but chooses to be a coward and runs away from his problems in a drug induced lifestyle for several decades instead
Wow what a surprise Cinemaphile loves it. At least Noodles comes back to face his demons. You're gonna be here forever.
Best Scorsese movie. Not even made by Scorsese.
