A new Martin Scorsese’s movie The Irishman developed controversies; to some, it is a new Martin Scorsese’s masterpiece, and to some, it is just too long and too familiar.
Scorsese finally put in one movie three most famous Italian descent known for their mafia movies; Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci.
Making
Making of The Irishman was long and it had stocked in development hell.
As soon as the book about a late mob hitman Frank Sheeran came out (I Heard You Paint Houses: Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran and Closing the Case on Jimmy Hoffa by Charles Brand) Scorsese wanted to make a movie out of it. Why not, it has all things Sorsesse like in his movies; the Italian mafia in the USA. I Heard You Paint Houses is a code for I Heard You kill people; thing Jimy Hofa asked Frank Sheeran in their first conversation.
The Irishman few times broke the budget; from first 100 million dollars to final 159 million. Most of the money went for visual effects needed to make De Niro, Pacino, and Pesci appear younger at various points throughout the film.
History
But as we do not know who killed Jimmy Hoffa, we can only assume that testifies from Sheeran are true.
Soon there will be a historical review of The Irishman and you will find out is the movie real historical deal or another drama with to much liberties in storytelling.
