I'm officially excited, looks incredible.

& the "de-ageing" on DeNiro looks very well done too thankfully!

[GiRTh]

That looks amazing. Got me thinking, has Pacino ever worked with Scorcese before? I dont think he has.

[Cherie]

wow, and that Noo Yark accent :love:

No this is the very first time!

Just seeing Pacino, De Niro and Pesci in one [Scorcese] movie is incredible!

Yeah just checked. Its the first time they've worked together in about 50 years each in movies.

[Cherie]

when it it out?

Sometime after September 27, that's when it premieres at the New York Film Festival. Oct/Nov probably.

...’I know things..they don’t know I know..’ ...:cool:...Pacino, Pesci and De Niro...the boys are back in town, baby...New York town...

Reportedly 3.5 hours long.


Are you sitting down, folks? The New York Film Festival has revealed that Martin Scorsese‘s The Irishman will boast a running time of… wait for it… 210 minutes. That is exactly 3-and-one-half-hours. You could literally watch Crank and Crank: High Voltage in that time frame, and still have roughly 10 minutes to spare.....

Not a cinema film then.

Can't stand being in a cinema for more than 2 hours. :worry:

Not sure it is going to be in many cinemas here, if any, because Netflix couldn't agree with US cinema chains to have more than a limited (so it qualifies for awards consideration) release there. The cinema chains wanted it kept off home-streaming for longer.

First reactions to this have been VERY promising. “Masterpiece” has been used and huge praise for Scorsese!

Looking forward to it even more now. :clap1:

[Tony Montana]

Still can't believe Pacino and Scorsese have never worked together before.

So many good films seem to be going to streaming platforms, and to think I used to view being "dumped on Netflix" as a modern version of straight to video!

The Guardian give it 4 stars :clap2:
