you dont cut out the twin towers because to the viewer it would be like no one knew they were ever there

Es como si nunca hubiesemos existido!

Not a big fan of the full movie.. but this ending Is something special

Very beautiful ending, honestly one of the best parts of the movie. "It's like nobody knows we were here".

Newyork ❤

Good and bad because it shows how society forgot all those that helped make society what it is today and all the sacrifices and fighting they did...

Reminds me of the ending Attck on Titan.

What I remember u2 dont come in until end credits start

Great cities are the lifeblood of the world, and New York is the Greatest one of all!

Hey 👋 I’ve just seen the twin towers in the background when it’s destroyed by 9,11 in the year 2001

It reminds me of the ending of attack on titan season 4

Legacy...

One of the best endings ever

Imagine this film with Colin Farrell instead of DiCaprio and that awful accent

There are so many stories about people in the past going back thousands of years, equally as epic, that could end in the same way

So much meaning in this ending! This story was a violent, epic drama of revenge and love and its just a withering story that was so insignificant to the creation of New York City.

...for the rest of time, no one will remember the twin towers were here.... Having said that, I must admit that Brooklyn bridge is a marvel of human engineering.

Crazy how even the graves are not there anymore. Makes you think, will graveyards filled with our descendants (and us) even be around in the future? Even the graveyards will be paved over (or dug up) and make way for something else. We aren't even a memory (graveyard) but it's like we never existed at all. Wow.

This part and Daniel Day Lewis's performance were the only parts that impressed me about this movie

So this movie was really really good, but it kind of rushed the third act. I feel like it could be made into a mini series instead.

We are but sojourners in this world...very few us of will be remembered for any length of time after we have gone. From Allah we come and to Him do we return.

Martin Scorsese was born in New York City, good for him to keep those Towers in.

Ending basically said “does it even matter”

When no one comes to your dog’s funeral:

That sequence is the best depiction I've ever seen in media about the sheer relentless wheel of history.

Though the City shall burn, like a phoenix it shall rise. Though the People shall be scattered, through Faith in Man shall they Unite. And Gods will be watching.

I still cry at this scene

that ending part reminds me of the Ending part of the "the attack of the titan" where Eren remain was buried

Something about how during the rapid transition to the present, the camera is slowly panning up, but the skyline grows to quickly for the camera to keep everything in view, yet the grave site is continuously front and center. Almost as if we can only see the portion of history that we’re alive for and fragments of those who came before, but we can never see nor conceive of what the future could look like, because it’s just out of our view

Superb. Only Marty

That's sad. When we pass like the end of time no one will know we were here.

Time waits for no man.

The Butcher is a class.

God bless the Twin Towers of New York United States. The horrendous loss that day. As the workers flung themselves to the ground in despairing shock, and unto their deaths we will always remember. How the Arabs set upon what was known as the free world.

The world trade center RIP 🙏🏻

This ending was stolen from the deletef ending of Last of Mohigans..

It’s hard to pick a fav Scorsese film however if I had to rank them then I would go with Gangs Of NY as my number 1!

One of the most beautiful endings of any movie. Period. 🥰

Great movie, remember taking the TV in the back yard with friends and watching this movie when it came out on VHS. It was great times. Get that TV in the backyard with friends and watch a great movie, you won't regret it later!

Hell of an ending with that time lapse 🔥

This hits me like the ending of Six Feet Under. Ugh. It's beautiful, but heart wrenching.

The end tune by U2 to an equally amazing movie ❤️🎶😍

That was a tremendous movie. The mixing of the sound at the end seemed a bit off, neverthelss, 20+ years later, an outstanding movie!

I wonder why liam Neeson is never mentioned in this films credits ? Great ending though we are all but dust !!

🐐🐐🐐

This ending will remain by far the most powerful and impactful ending I have ever seen out of every film I watched. Seeing those twin towers along with this immense power of music just hits every emotion

Every repeating four measures of the main musical melody symbolizes the birth & passing of eras & people, come and gone, again and again, past, present, and future. You could play this music to people in the year 3050, and they would still understand its time transcending poetic meaning.

You were here granny! Oct 9th 1864

Given this was released POST-9/11, it would have been fitting if they had a shot of the city in 2002 without the towers there since they clearly weren't there by the time this came out. If you're gonna depict a passage of time here to modern day, then you ought to be accurate about it.
