These are obviously rhetorical questions of mine - the answer is as plain as noses glimpsed in mirrors - total cretinous pieces of shit.
The Color Of Money - who is the protagonist/hero?
Alice Doesn’t Live Here anymore - who is the protagonist/hero?
After Hours - who is the protagonist/hero?
Has Scorsese made films about unsavoury people? Yup, and you don’t have to like the the characters or the films. But you’re judging his entire catalogue by a small minority of the films he directed over the years.
If you only want to watch films about nice people, that’s certainly your right, and I won’t tell you that you shouldn’t. But when Scorsese make a film based on a real person - like the three you mentioned - it seems pretty unfair of you to pass judgement on the director. I mean, is it his fault that Henry Hill was a total cretinous piece of shit?
