Martin Scorsese reunites with Robert De Niro in 'The Irishman', a 3-1/...
LONDON - Martin Scorsese reunites with Robert De Niro in “The Irishman”, a 3-1/2 hour long mob drama the acclaimed director said he chose to do with his frequent collaborator to build on their past work together rather than replicate it.
The Netflix movie, which closes the BFI London Film Festival on Sunday, uses digital de-ageing technology to show the characters in their 30s and 40s. De Niro, Pesci and Pacino are all in their 70s. “To just replicate what we had been trying to do at the beginning of our careers wouldn’t be enriching in any way.”
The plot, based on Charles Brandt’s book “I Heard You Paint Houses”, is tied to the disappearance of former U.S. Teamsters union boss Jimmy Hoffa, portrayed by Pacino in his first Scorsese collaboration. “The original conception of what a film is and where it’s to be seen has now changed so radically,” Scorsese said.
“That’s a different experience ... it’s not cinema it’s something else whether you go for that or not ... and we shouldn’t be invaded by it.”Asked about watching younger versions of themselves, Pacino who described the de-ageing effects as “a form of make-up”, said: “This whole thing is innovative of course but at the same time, you tell a story, and in the end I’m a little more concerned about that.
