Saw this once. Hated it.
Saw it again last week. Hated it.
Not the movie – I’d say it’s extraordinary, but I hated the experience of watching it. The gloom and the dread and the realism and Clint being a very unhappy Clint. I just mind folk were peeved because he won the Best Director Academy Award over Marty for his The Aviator (2004), a standard Oscar bait biopic and one of the few Scorsese movies not even worthy of a second viewing.
Clint does this thing – he will make five stinkers in a row but then pull a motion picture out the bag that totally blows away all doubters.
But I’m never watching it again.
Wanderings and ... wonderings.
