Okay, that's your opinion. I don't think Scorsese is attempting to do either. What he does is humanizes people through telling their story, which a lot of people cannot handle because, once again, it's easier for your brain to see someone as a complete monster than it is to understand that they were a person.
edit: Also, I don't think it needs to be said for most people... lol... but let's just cover all bases here... The point of film is not LETS BE DECENT! Lol that's kind of silly that you'd even say that.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
