Martin Scorsese's TheIrishman opens the 57th NYFF—and gives the world the most deeply felt gangster movie ever made. Our fest report:
— which premiered last night at the 57th New York Film Festival — owes a debt to that nearly 30-year-old work. The big difference, naturally, is the pedigree. And for a long stretch of this look at the life and times of Frank Sheeran, the mob muscle-turned-Teamster official who was Jimmy Hoffa’s ace in the hole , there’s that same distinct recipe of irony and history, violence and humor, pop narcotics and Italian-American anthropology.
First, however, we get to know Frank. Played by De Niro with his usual well-calibrated shrugs, verbal hesitations and erupting-volcano volatility, this WWII veteran is a truck driver who gets busted by lightening his sides-of-beef load to get in good with some Philadelphia syndicate folks. He first meets his wiseguy patron saint, Russell Bufalino , at a service station when his rig cops out.
A lot of dust has been stirred up over Scorsese’s decision to use digital effects to alter his leads’ looks, all the better to trace the characters’ long, winding arc from twentysomething working stiffs or thirtysomething head honchos to frail octogenarians ready to shuffle off this mortal coil.
