Diary Entry forMean Streets
Martin Scorsese first big film, and one of his most important throughout his career. I didn’t connect with this as much as many other Scorsese films but the acting was great and plot was fun. The music is phenomenal and any gangster fan should watch this.
Other Diary Entries forMean Streets
Mean Streets
Mean Streets isn’t just a gangster movie it’s a raw, restless portrait of guilt, friendship, and trying to stay afloat in a world that’s already decided your fate. Scorsese doesn’t romanticize the streets; he bathes them in flickering neon and Catholic guilt
Mean Streets
Scorsese allowing these characters big time moments in a life entirely devoid of big time. There's a later shot where we trail out and away, getting a distanced view of the neighborhood and the cacophonies of the street are finally muted. It gives way to just how tiny and cordoned off it all is, the scope of all their efforts, successes, failures measured out in city blocks. Same with that moment in the cemetery where Charlie has perhaps a sense of foreboding as he glimpses just one of many windows into that wider world; different dominoes falling, same physics. So many of his films make me feel like I'm wedged in shoulder to shoulder in the backseat and only able to watch helplessly as the glare of oncoming headlights streak past.
Mean Streets
mesmo no começo da carreira, já dava pra perceber o caminho e a identidade que o Scorcese queria levar pro resto da vista, um grande diferencial pra maioria dos diretores de hoje em dia esse filme é caótico mas da melhor maneira possível
Mean Streets
Mean Streets is gritty and raw, giving an early look at Scorsese’s style and themes. The performances, especially from De Niro, stand out, even if the story feels loose and uneven at times. Overall, Mean Streets is an engaging crime film that’s rough around the edges but full of personality.
