    Dialogues in this movie are just pure gold. It's one of the most re-watchable 2 and 1/2 hour movies ever made.
    Also, this was the film where Martin Scorsese finally won the Oscar for Best Director. He had been nominated, lost five times before and got it on his sixth nomination. His previous nominations were for "Raging Bull", "The Last Temptation of Christ", "Goodfellas", "Gangs of New York" and "The Aviator". He has been nominated three more times for "Hugo", "The Wolf of Wall Street", "The Irishman" and I am sure he will also be nominated for "Killers of the Flower Moon". All of them are great films.

    It's a pretty common practice for Feds to use high ranking crime bosses as informants. Lookup Whitey Bulger as an example. The bosses give up smaller fish (lesser criminals) and are given immunity to an extent for their crimes. The reasoning is that it's easier to maintain crime than to eliminate it which is next to impossible. And normally once a crime boss is removed it creates a power vaccum which is often pretty bloody. Everyone scrambling to be the new boss with lots of people killed in the process.

    Now you seriously HAVE to watch "Black Mass" with Johnny Depp!! Amazing movie, amazing cast and it might be my favourite role Depp has ever played. I think I might watch it right now actually. He plays a real life person and the former boss of the Irish mob in Boston. The infamous, James "Whitey" Bulger. Bulger is exactly who Jack Nicholson's characrer is based off of in The Departed.
    Whitey Bulger was #2 on the FBI's Most Wanted List ... to put that in perspective, the only person above him on the list, at that point in history, was a guy named, Osama Bin Laden!! Once Bin Laden was killed he was pushed up to #1 and it didn't really take very long to find him at that point. Whitey even said himself that he knew his days were numbered when all the resources they were using to find Bin Laden were freed up.
    This last fact doesn't spoil anything about the movie "Black Mass." It was made before this happened... but several years ago Whitey was beaten to death by another inmate in federal prison.

      Love both movies, despite Hollywood's obsession with poor attempts at "Boston accents." I recommend The Departed for its script, acting chops, and wide range of emotions (tension, shock, confusion, light humor). As Ash said it's ~2.5 hours, but you're hooked.
      I recommend Black Mass for a more "gritty and real" portrayal of the city, its surrounding areas, and real characters. Though a cinema layperson, I think it's a prime example where I see and appreciate the full production (+ a good dose of bias as a staunch New Englander).
      This includes cinematography and set location leaning into the "drab" working-class suburb feel neither cheesy nor stereotypical; hair/makeup capturing Bulger's look; Depp's ability to convey a sense of both "neighborhood boy" and "pure evil" in demeanor, mannerisms, and tone; lighting that enhances all of those points (notably Bulger's blue eyes, but also seemingly pools of black in any given scene). It also stays true to its roots as a story about Whitey Bulger and the Winter Hill Gang. While there is some context in his relationship with John Connolly, it does not delve too deep, and brother Billy Bulger is more of a character in passing despite having a story of his own. I got carried away typing, sorry for piggybacking on your comment.

    Great reaction like always, this film is a remake of a Hong Kong film called Infernal Affairs (2002) and some fun facts about this movie Scorsese was the only person who warner Bros wanted to direct the film, and he agreed to do it pretty quickly. Warner Bros had bought the rights to Hong Kong thriller Infernal Affairs (2002) and always had Scorsese in mind to direct a remake. When Scorsese read the script he loved it as it reminded him of classic Hollywood genre pictures by people like Robert Aldrich, Sam Fuller, and Don Siegel. Specifically, Scorsese said it reminded him of White Heat - a 1949 film noir directed by Raoul Walsh and starring James Cagney. Production of the film was so long and arduous that even Martin Scorsese was left ill and exhausted from making the film. Scorsese later said, “I call The Departed ‘Moral Ground Zero’. All the characters are killed at the end, and there was no place to go after that. Scorsese had been nominated for 7 Oscars previously, and lost every time. The Departed, though, was the movie where Scorsese finally won. The Departed won Best Picture (the first remake of a foreign film to do so) and Scorsese won Best Director. When Scorsese won the Oscar, it was presented to him by three of his old movie brat pals in Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Francis Ford Coppola. The lead role of Billy Costigan is played by Leonardo DiCaprio, in one of his most acclaimed roles. When the studio bought the rights to Infernal Affairs, however, they had another famous actor in mind for the role. The studio originally planned for Costigan to be played by Tom Cruise. And the main female character in the movie is Madolyn, who has relationships with both Sullivan and Costigan. She’s played by Vera Farmiga but Scorsese originally had a shortlist of 4 big stars to play Madolyn: Kate Winslet, Emily Blunt, Hilary Swank and Jennifer Aniston. One of the most popular and acclaimed moments in The Departed is when Costello is talking to Costigan about the rat, and questions if it could be Costigan himself. Costello pulls out a gun and points it in Costigan’s face. That wasn’t in the script - Nicholson improvised it, and DiCaprio wasn’t expecting it. Then Costello burns a drawing in front of him with a lighter - this was also not scripted. Nicholson also improvised the, “I got this rat. This gnawing, teething f***ing rat,” line. Keep up the amazing work.

      @RandomNPC001 7 месяцев назад

      @@xsjado_anon I grew up in Boston and moved away in 2016 and I can tell you this is movie is loosely based in the life story of James Joseph "Whitey" Bulger Jr. ( September 3, 1929 - October 30, 2018) was an American organized crime boss who led the Winter Hill Gang in the Winter Hill neighborhood of Somerville, Massachusetts, a city directly northwest of Boston. On December 23, 1994, Bulger fled the Boston area and went into hiding after his former FBI handler, John Connolly, tipped him off about a pending RICO indictment against him. Bulger remained at large for sixteen years. After his 2011 arrest, federal prosecutors tried Bulger for nineteen murders based on grand jury testimony from Kevin Weeks and other former criminal associates.
      Although Bulger adamantly denied it, the FBI revealed that he had served as an informant for several years starting in 1975. Bulger provided information about the inner workings of the Patriarca crime family, his Italian-American Mafia rivals based in Boston and Providence, Rhode Island. In return, Connolly, as Bulger's FBI handler, ensured that the Winter Hill Gang were effectively ignored.[5][6][7] Beginning in 1997, press reports exposed various instances of criminal misconduct by federal, state, and local officials with ties to Bulger, causing embarrassment to several government agencies, especially to the FBI.
      After Bulger became a fugitive in 1994, he was added to the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list in 1999, and was considered the most wanted person on the list behind Osama bin Laden. He was apprehended along with his longtime girlfriend, Catherine Greig, outside an apartment complex in Santa Monica, California, on June 22, 2011. By then he was 81 years old. Bulger and Greig were then extradited to Boston and taken to court under heavy guard. In June 2012, Greig pleaded guilty to conspiracy to harbor a fugitive, identity fraud, and conspiracy to commit identity fraud, receiving a sentence of eight years in prison. Bulger declined to seek bail and remained in custody.
      Bulger's trial began in June 2013. He was tried on thirty-two counts of racketeering, money laundering, extortion and weapons charges, including complicity in nineteen murders.[16] On August 12, Bulger was found guilty on 31 counts, including both racketeering charges, and was found to have been involved in eleven murders.[17] On November 14, he was sentenced to two consecutive life sentences plus five years by U.S. District Court Judge Denise J. Casper. Bulger was incarcerated at the United States Penitentiary Coleman II in Sumterville, Florida.
      Bulger was transferred to several facilities in October 2018; first to the Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma and then to the United States Penitentiary, Hazelton, near Bruceton Mills, West Virginia. Bulger, who was in a wheelchair, was beaten to death by inmates on October 30, 2018, within hours of his arrival at Hazelton. In 2022, Fotios Geas, Paul DeCologero and Sean McKinnon were charged with conspiracy to commit first-degree murder in Bulger's death.

    While this story itself is entirely fictional, the premise of the head of an Irish crime family actually being a protected FBI informant himself is based on an actual person. If I remember correctly, his name was James "Whitey" Bulger and I believe Johnny Depp portrayed him, think the film was called Black Mass. Costello is based on him and this was such a hit that people got interested in the inspiration himself.

    • @PaulJTaylor
      @PaulJTaylor 7 месяцев назад +2

      Bostonian here. That is correct. This film weaves a couple of facts about "Whitey" Bulger into its fiction. The first is that Bulger's FBI handler routinely tipped him off to protect Bulger as an asset, so in a way he had a man inside the police. The other is that "Whitey" Bulger -- mob boss and serial killer -- had a brother, William "Billy" Bulger, who was actually president of the Massachusetts State Senate... so there's a theme of evil/good duality there (although Billy Bulger's administration was rife with corruption... a criminal enterprise of a different stripe).

    My friend Ash, Nicolson wasn't playing a character. Hanah was kinda spot on. Everyone is a rat. Police chiefs and big mafia bosses are a different side of the same coin. They do business together, they collaborate. The system is so corrupted that different police agencies who want a bigger piece of the pie don't even know who is an informant of who. And they antagonize each other. Ultimately, it doesn't even matter. While the lowly police officers and petty criminals are playing a game of cowboys and indians with each other, thinking they make a difference, or they're climbing ranks, their bosses are shaking hands backstage. The game is rigged from the beginning, and nobody wins because the actual point of the game is to carry on existing so that people at the top can retain their status quo. People watch this movie and they find it absurd. That's what's absurd to me. This movie is very close to real life.
