neutral · AI labelView post →Watched MEAN STREETS (1973) for the umpteenth time and couldn’t help marvelling at how much it stylistically shaped the next few decades of film and TV, acknowledged or not. And it’s a reminder of just how central Scorsese should be in any modern history of the medium 🤷♂️… #filmsky
positive · AI labelView post →watched Saturday Night Fever for the first time last night. Wasn't expecting it to be a nice companion film to Mean Streets and actually wasn't expecting the tone to be so bleak. But I think that's what makes the dancing work so well. Like John (Tony) Travolta really isn't a great guy

Scorsese having a continuing cultural legacy after he's gone feels like a moderately safe bet by now.

neutral · AI labelView post →When you watch Mean Streets for example - you're just watching New York. It's really great as a piece of history not just as a movie. That's why I like Mr Robot so much because it was actually filmed all over New York so in 20 years time it's going to also work on the level of showing history
neutral · AI labelView post →Rewatched Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) & still dig it. Hits different when yer older. Still shocking the violence that the women face. Kinda wild this was Scorsese's movie between Mean Streets & Taxi Driver. Wonder if the 3hr cut had more Burstyn in that piano bar, really loved that part.

Down These Mean Streets (1966) creaks loudly and is sometimes unintentionally funny. It's very much put together with spit and sellotape but has flashes of visual flare and a strong atmosphere.

neutral · AI labelView post →but he has a few redeeming qualities and dancing is his best. I think this era of NYC film is really good at highlighting the poverty and the aimlessness for the youth. That's why i compare it to Mean Streets. I'd even say it kinda reminds me of American Graffiti (George Lucas film) but like
