    The confidence with which you keep saying, "Keetle" for "Kai-tell" is pretty astonishing, especially given the apparent careful detail you pay attention to. Harvey Keitel is a respected actor, you should give him that respect.

    Please stop saying what "critics" think. Critics are a group of people that really serve no purpose. People need to watch movies based on their interests and not based on random opinions by people who shouldn't affect what they think or feel.

    My friend and I were dining in Tribeca 10 yrs Mr Deniro was there with friends we werent aware of his presence the restaurant was quiet small intimate ambience. Obviously he noticed us and paid for our dinner! Once we were told by the server Mr Deniro had left the restaurant. We were so surprised and excited wished we could have at least met him we were told he was very private. We both are African Americans ladies and his affinity for our type is well known. Love his acting and Heat is my favorite

    • @fadedrose9

      @janberry4516 Kudos for admitting that you didn't know anything about him, yet formed a negative opinion & realized how good he was! We're all guilty of forming bad opinions of ppl, especially celebrities, without watching their work or listening to them talk. Years ago, I didn't like Hillary Clinton and I realized that the only reason for that is that I heard so much negative talk about her. Then I decided to watch her speak, listen to her, read articles about her, and I was ashamed of allowing myself to form an opinion by what I heard. It was then I learned to do my research before I form an opinion of anyone.

    In many that the critics didn't like, I for one always enjoyed all of his acting projects. As a method actor I knew he was intense, hard driven, and tenacious. He could be aloof, stay to himself and that's how many of them before him were and are still. For this on actor Mickey Rourke - who did Angel Heart which I regarded as one of Robert's most creepy and direct in your gut performances - to think this man to this day still keeps a grudge against him - is so ridiculous. First of all, not all actors like each other, 2nd you must respect an actor's space and Mickey should have asked questions instead of taking it so personally - to this day that actor is showing his insecurity which has not ever done him good. In an actor's lifetime if you're so lucky to have a long span of acting roles, there are so many movies that will outshine others but the important thing is the roles never outshine the man, actor himself. He is a humanitarian, if funny and has proven his comedic timing, has always had a religious workout program and remained in shape long after many haven't. In my book he's as good as he was in his younger days and I get why he's not on social media. Kudos to him and thank God the judge gave his ruling for his last wife to not get what she demanded of him. My God how ridiculous is that to spend that much money in a month??? He can now relax, work when he wants without the burden of her extravagances. Thanks.

But he is no doubt, an incredibly gifted & talented actor and has proven that a LOT! A word about the narrator’s pronunciation of certain people’s last names and certain words….(sorry, I can’t recall all the names and words,) they were either pronounced incorrectly or with the emphasis on the wrong syllable.
