+lovenlightman I agree. One of the most realistic portrayals of street life in the history of film. HBO's " The Wire " was realistic in the same sense but that was a 6 year series.
I did not like the Wire much-To long. Could be it was realistic - HBO is very good at that. I really liked OZ- I think its one of the best series ever that showed life in prison as it is.
WHAT A STUPID BORING MOVIE, MY GOD...THE WHOLE MOVIE FIGHTING FOR $30 or $40 bucks WTF. The "Mob" makes a $40 deal in a car and they only get $20 hahahaha what a ridiclous scrip...big piece of shit movie. Have you seen Once upon a time in America? You are an asshole recommending this crap.
Mean Streets. We did not grow up in New York but we KNEW people like that. We had friends who fit these characters. And we miss them. "We" being me and my sis and my little group of friends who are god knows where. That is the magic of true film making. We can relate in our own ways. Beautiful film. One of my absolute favorites. It is in my heart. Excuse me if i am being overly sentimental. It rocks.
@Jhonny on the spit roast when was the last time Tarantino made a really really good movie everything after Jackie brown was just what ever. Hateful eight was good but i would not see it again.
@Jhonny on the spit roast and another thing Scorsese can actually tell a story theirs actually feelings and emotions tarantinos just pop cutler references up the ass
Scorsese 1st 2nd is Tarantino they both so different and yet the same. I could name more Tarantino movies but all my favs ate Scorsese movies. Goodfellas casino the irishmen the departed.
Alfred Hitchcock mainly made 'thrillers '. Godard mainly made 'romantic movies with a political back drop' .Spielberg mainly makes 'thrill ride' films . Coppola mainly made epics or 'experimental cinema '. All the names or phrases used here are that of film genres . Wonder what Scorsese makes?? Well it has got a unique name.....the genre of Scorsese is -'SCORSESE' . And that's why , I think him to be one of the FINEST.
the mailbox scene is one of my all time favorites ,which I saw right before this .the soundtrack was a little ahead of it's time.CREAM at the ending is electrifying.
Mean Streets is #2 of my top 5 of films Scorsese directed. I particularly liked the bar sene where Harvey Keitel is drunk and how the camera follows his swaying and body movements. Spike Lee borrowed a bit from that in at least two of his films. but even Paul Thomas Anderson, and Oliver Stone (who was a student of his at NYU) borrows a bit from how Scorsese, Particularly in group or "meeting the croud" shots. I also see commonalities with both those directors (Anderson and Stone) in jump cuts to where one character makes a gesture or a name is mentioned and the next few frames are the object or the person's reaction or what they are doing and how it follows the dialogue of the character speaking.
Dominic Malone Sorry, not even close. The earliest I've seen it used was in the 1966 film Seconds to convey drunkenness just like it was in Mean Streets. Scorsese more than likely saw it, liked the effect and use it himself.
Touche...I'll have to check out "Seconds" US film or European? I'm an american myself, so we're really hard on the "art" that is cinematography. (our censors and whatnot). Information helps. I don't limit myself, personally, and think Everyone deserves a voice.
@@michaelsalama6631 that's actually an interesting question. because the live CREAM( vol.2?)record at different times printed the wrong title. it's 'Steppin' out', from the live album w/ the white cover. EC first did it w/ the Bluesbreakers. but I can't think of a more exciting use of Rock & Roll w/ the images on the screen. 'Hideaway' was the tune that was confused w/ it.
I hate it when people think Goodfellas is better than mean streets, I used to have friends as teenagers that just couldn’t understand mean streets, maybe when they get older they will. There’s so much inside jokes, New York and Italian slang and humour that would just fly over most people‘s heads. “Hey Charlie I drew a picture of you”, “what am I crazy I can’t be seen with a melijian in the village.” But when I saw it as a teenager I fell in love immediately. That’s his best film in my opinion. Cuts right to the heart, who’s that knocking at my door, raging Bull, and taxi driver come close. But mean streets is the soul
@@villain7140 Incomparable? Both movies about mafia life both with deniro. Both extremely violent, both in nyc, both based on true events, both by Scorsese shall I continue?. Just one is smarter than the other.. But my whole life nobody can understand mean streets and claim it as a boring movie. Yet everybody snaps to Goodfellas because it’s such a polished comedy.
@@Stephen-lt1tp comparable just because both are mafia movies? well then I guess that means Star Wars and Saving Private Ryan are comparable because both have guns and war? Plus Mean Streets isn't even about the mafia lmao, the film is about an Italian kid tortured with guilt in the streets of Little Italy while Goodfellas is a proper mob film with the literal opposite main character. Completely different story, characters, scale and intentions. Goodfellas is just as smart if not smarter, just because its entertaining or comedic doesn't mean its dumb and I'm sure its #48 placement in the Sight and Sound directors poll would agree.
@@villain7140 did you not read anything I put before all you took was both are both mafia? Please reread my comment. I gave many comparable points. Means streets is totally about the mafia yeah I’m sure that went right over your head. Charlie’s uncle? And the pressure he feels because of that and his relationship with Johnny his volatile cousin. My point is most people do not get meanstreets and you are one of them. It’s for a certain audience. While the others go more for a polished watered down version which is goodfellas
@UCJkhasbfrLERUFv14KAag0Q you missed all my points. You’re hung up on only the word mafia. They’re comparable because they’re both Scorsese films, about New York City, both have De Niro, same time frame, both based on true events, both about the mafia… all went over your head, to make a Star Wars/saving Private Ryan reference is ludicrous. The same way I’m not comparing it to casino because that’s in Las Vegas. Or raging Bull because that’s about Jake LaMotta. It’s fine you like good fellas better most people do that’s my point. They don’t get mean streets and they would give it bad reviews for that reason. Most people without any real life experience on the streets just don’t get it or they don’t get the New York innuendos, or Italian slang. I’m sure that all went right over your head. Goodfellas is way more Hollywood main stream so that’s just what you’re into. But I’m saying there is a good core people that appreciate mean streets and I’m saying it’s a shame that most people just don’t do their homework on old New York, mafia, or Italian culture/slang to get good films.
The greatest film maker of his generation. Maybe the greatest of all time. He changed everything. How many slo-mo shots of guys walking have u seen.? He invented so many things that have become common in everybodys films. Yet he had to go to Netflix to finance The Irishman because no studio would. Yet these studios have all kinds of money to finance comic book/CGI movies. It's sad. The era of great directors telling great stories is over. He would never get Taxi Driver or Raging Bull made today.
Universal flushed $100 million on Cats & it was a massive flop. They will never see a dime from that, but they dismissed Scorsese's The Irishman for its costs.
@@filmbuff2777 Who in their right mind would think of a Scorsese movie as a flop? Sure, it was expensive, but Scorsese is a huge draw for so many crowds, especially a film like The Irishman. Not only did it generate lots of Oscar buzz, but it’s also very much that classic Scorsese we all know and love. I bet (and hope) Universal heavily regretted the decision they made when looking at the profits generated by Netflix. It’s very sad.
Phil Spector is so full of himself. you are a producer, Phil, and a great one. he can't be happy unless he's in the act somehow. a narcissist of great renown..but he reminds me of the scene in which Tony Soprano's producer friend claims to have written a couple hit songs. TS says in retort "you mean some black kid wrote it, and you gave yourself a co-write". Spector is a liar if he claims not to have known WB's used one of 'his ' songs that he 'co-wrote' w/ 2 other people. I don't believe he wrote a note of it. but there are many songs used in Scorsese films that I can't hear w/ out thinking of one of his films. particularly 'be my baby' ,but also 'rags to riches'.BTW, to be fair, Spector is in 'EASY RIDER', and what little acting he did for Dennis Hopper was good.
It's such a fantastic film. Looking forward to The Irishman. Marty is basically the country's film professor. We should all listen more (no, not just about Marvel): so much to learn. He's the best we've had since Kubrick died, in my view.
"Who's That Knocking at My Door?" is underrated. It's no "Mean Streets," but it's very clearly a dry run for a lot of aspects of the later film, and it's got one of the Scorsese's most sophisticated portrayals of relationships between men and women, and of toxic male sexuality.
Interesting at the end when he's talking about his then 11-year-old daughter. As a father myself I find their public relationship (on Instagram) very poignant.
I understand why Scorsese didn't use an all black cast: though, as an African American, a black mean streets sounds pretty bad ass, it probably wouldn't work
there is a guy shooting junk in MEAN STREETS ,and Tony throws out the guy ,as well as threatens the guy believed to be "passing that shit in my place".
Abel Ferrara was clearly inspired by mean streets while making bad lieutenant. An absolute practice in the style of Marty, but turned up a couple degrees in the obscurity and creativity - almost too much. It’s an absolutely disgusting and shocking film, but a masterpiece. Possibly Keitels best performance. But be warned, this is not a movie to watch with you girlfriend wife or parents .
Mean Streets remain THE FILM DRAFT of a whole fascinating career towards CASINO with disturbing, confused (Johnny Boy, Rupert Pupkin) or spiritually tortured characters (Charlie or Sam Rothstein).. Such an old work is at my own personal serious opinion much more significant and revealing than the conceited grotesque Wolf of Wall only made to thrive on big money
Roger Corman only said that to MS because ,1 he didn't care about what turned out to be yes, his best film, and 2, that blaxploitation was, 'in' at the time .I don't mean across 110th street .(I say that because I like it, and because I don't put it in that 'Superfly'genre).
Well it is NOT one of his best efforts but you could see the potential from 50 years ago. I just re-watched it recently and frankly it's very slow moving. The cinematography is terrible. Everything is dark and you can't see anything and there's a lot of slow moving stuff in the movie That said even at this early date, it looks like classic Scorsese as he does these mob dramas so well. /230805
You do realise what you said makes no sense? And you also can't see what began this argument - a pitiful one at that. You're just coming across like a mong. I implore you not to comment back to save you making a fool of yourself although you already have. Love always, Your Superior
Firstly, calling you an otter in hardly and insult. Calling you clueless in merely an observation. I'm not sure wether you're American or English or however, but to say some places in England have the same grit as 70's New York in blatantly incorrect. And to say that there's "always crazy shit happening" in Iran is nothing but a purely idiotic stereotype. I don't even mean to insult you, all I'm doing is correcting your incorrectness.
aw i didnt mean to be down on you in any way. I was actually being cheerful and.. to each his own. And YES Raging Bull is awesome. Its unique in many ways. Happy new year and peace.
Mean Streets was a long long long time ago. Mr. Scorsese has been firing blanks for decades now. I respect his film knowledge but for the love of god can we move on?
Blanks? Taxi Driver Raging Bull King of Comedy The Age Of Innocence, Goodfellas Casino The Aviator Silence, The Departed Kundun Hugo, Shutter Island-blanks? You are a special kind of stupid.
Why would anyone want to waste 49 minutes with one of the worst directors of all time? But if I were forced to, my first question would be: could the music used in the soundtrack of 'Mean Streets' have been any louder, or more overbearing?
Mean Streets- One of the best movies ever. Martin just showed the life of his frends in Little Italy. Such a strong and funny movie in my opinion.
