I expected Martin Scorsese to keep the burn scar on the face of the actor for more then 2 min of the movie. I was suposed to be a compelling moment in building the character. Maybe DiCaprio's contract said he couldn't look ugly for more then 2 min? It had a great amount of comedy. When the fire departments showed up and it turned into a fight I had to laugh. Then they struck the poor SOB whose house was next to the one on fire. This film is probably one of Scorsese's weakest, but that is my opinion. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer CIMSgts 901.246-0159 cell _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
