Scorsese's latest masterpiece, has vehicles, meetings and salvation at its forefront and asks importance questions to all of us; how do we get past Saint Peter's gates?

The last scene of Frank sitting lonely in his chair as the camera looks in at him from the hallway is so sad. To me, that's oblivion. True loneliness at the end. I cant imagine a worse fate.

@John Sm but he wasn’t a good dad, he might’ve raised her and fed her and all of that but he showed her no love, and the man that did show her love as a girl her father had a hand in killing. And when he’s old and alone and all the loyalties he had are expired the friends he had are dead, all of the terrible hinges he did are for nothing, none of it matters. And now he has to live with his betrayal of a good friend and can’t even talk to his daughter. It’s a poignant ending

When I saw this in the theatre, there were several senior citizens there also. And during the second half of the movie, I could tell that it resonated with them. In the first half of the movie, it’s a toned down and more subtle goodfellas. Franks connections and opportunities presented to him take him essentially to the top. But, as with anything, all good things come to an end. What does frank have after everything he’s done? Nothing really, a watch, a ring, and a lifetime of regret. He spent his entire life getting to the “top” but it all falls away and at the end, when the priest leaves the nursing home, he’s left in a purgatory of sorts. He doesn’t have anything left to do except die.

Tbh, I found a couple things wrong with his theory. Namely his interpretation of Peggy as the "judge." She had no real insight on Jimmy Hoffa where every widely known source of information clearly depicts him as a man with blood on his hands as well. Why else would he initiate the conversation with Sheeran with a reference to painting houses. Peggy's perception was very skewed so to take her judgment as objective and credible is almost disingenuous.

I liked this film when I watched it because I'm a fan of the cast. The theme of time and how events lose relevance over time resonates with me. The final scene where the nurse didn't know Jimmy Hoffa shows that major events will fade from public memory. The mafia was in the public eye from the 70s-90s, but now it's overlooked and even parodied.

I liked how you described Frank's relationship with the Mob. And Russell in particular! The Mob/Russell really was his most treasured connection, not his family. Which is illustrated by how he cries when Russell gives him the ring. The way he speaks about Russell with such reverence. And how intimate their dinners are together. Frank was pretty much married to Russell/The Mob! Casting aside his family, losing any relationship with his daughter, and choosing to ignore his faith. Which is what makes Frank so odd! He claims his motives for killing, & bombing businesses. Is to provide for his family. Yet he proves through his actions that he really doesn't value his relationship with his family. Enjoyed your video essay on The Irishman!👍👍

Very good analysis. I love Scorsese, I was obsessed with Goodfellas and Casino when I was younger. I struggled with the Irishman, I think mainly due to my lack of understanding the environment of 1950's America and the concept of Teamster unions (as I am British), as well as the extensive runtime of the film, and the de-aging, which sadly I struggled to see past at times. However, your video has displayed characteristics and motifs in the film which I completely missed, and likely would never have noticed. I did pick up on the damaged relationship between, Frank and his Daughter immediately though. Thank you. Look forward to the next one.

As to the film i agree with a poster below in that the end of the film was fascinating given the advancing years of all involved in the film but particularly scorsese. Its like this whole long segment is the perfect antithesis of everything that comes before in the film...i paint houses but ultimately "leave the door open". Everything pales into insignificance in the face of "the end". This film will age well i feel...nothing has made me feel so strangely lonely like the end of this great film and the message is powerful indeed. Every one of the old gansters in prison is a murderous tyrant, but yet...we cannot help but empathise.

Catholic teachings teach that one must be fully repentant of the sins they have committed in order to be forgiven in confession. In the scene when he is asked if he feels any remorse and he looks like he doesn’t it is then that we can see that he cannot be forgiven since there is no remorse for the sinful acts he committed. Yes God mercy is always there, but one must change to accept that mercy. Jesus himself says that he will tell those people who did not the the fathers Will” depart from me for i do not know you.” We must remember that the way to salvation is narrow and the way to destruction is wide.

It's not too late for Frank but I can sense he's depressed and regretful about what he's done even though he can't fully admit it. He probably has subconcious existential dread that he's about to die and regrets killing Jimmy and losing his daughter subconsciously. He basically wasted his life without truly enjoying himself which he could have done with Jimmy and Peggy. But at least he's seen the light and he is finally trying, like you said... too bad he's old but he might do better in the next life.

In the BEGINNING of the review THE MOVIE says "You're late." Then the intro of "In the still of the night" plays. In the END of the video at around 32:20 MATTHEW says that it's too late for Frank. Then the intro of "In the still of the night" plays again. If I'm not mistaken, that's called a ring composition. If this is not a coincidence (And I don't think it is, especially considering the title of this video) , my hat's off to you sir for that level of attention to detail in the making of your reviews which in turn make them little pieces of art themselves!

My videos are indeed art :) Glad you like it! I just use a simple Thesis statement in the beginning tied to a song or some kind of art piece and end the essay with the thesis statement again

I must be the only person who liked The Irishman. I think it’s one of them films that will be admired more with time. Goodfellas was like that.

19:59 interesting point there. According to Jimmy Hoffa's former pilot, Neil Hansen, Jimmy didn't drink any alcohol, and only drank Schweppes bitter lemon.

Your voice really reminds me of an actor that I can't place and it's driving me nuts. But great analysis, subbed.

I thought I was crazy about details in the movies, analyzing every scene, every word, every little thing, but the bell that rings at the exact same time than the punch in the face of the grocer 🙌🏽 well you punched me in the face on that one!
