Mean Streets (10/10) Movie CLIP - Now's the Time (1973) HD

[@TheRampagingGallowglass75]

This scene's filming techniques were largely revolutionary for its era (early 70s)! Great Movie!

[@joeymangano3122]

So True.

[@maythefuhrerofunderstandin9624]

De Niro survived getting on the neck twice, this and Taxi Driver.

[@ThaqtRamone]

It isn’t revealed if he survived or died

[@louieandtommysdiscountedit3177]

True, but I think in Taxi Driver he just kinda got winged. It’s very possible that it’s a serious injury here.

[@Jared_Wignall]

@@louieandtommysdiscountedit3177Travis Bickle is at the end of Taxi Driver. At the end when he looks in the mirror and we see the city just like it was in the beginning during the opening credits, it’s essentially the cycle starting over or a ticking clock. Scorsese and Schrader have said that Travis will basically do what he did in the film again but the next time he won’t survive.

[@heavymetalheretic5386]

@@Jared_Wignall They don't say wether he will survive next time, the more dangerous implication is who his next target will be. He's a ticking time bomb and one way or another he will go off.

[@lh7325]

​@@louieandtommysdiscountedit3177Yeah, this looked like the round went straight in. He was done.

[@DodgerFan1988]

I like how the hitman (Scorsese) kissed his gun before shooting.

[@alancunningham6885]

Its actually Robert Carradine.

[@811chelseafc]

It’s actually Martin Scorsese.

[@TheConorsmithusa]

@@alancunningham6885 you're an idiot.

[@habadasheryjones]

@@alancunningham6885 The scene with the Carradine Brothers is earlier in the film. When the man shoots the dude in the bathroom. The assassin in the car was played by Scorsese.

[@masonf7332]

Does anyone know why he kissed his gun first? I assume it’s for good luck or some kind of personal ritual but idk for sure.

[@WeAretheWalrii]

I'm not sure why but the "now's the time" line makes me laugh.

[@richherrera1650]

Lol

[@mercoid]

Now’s the time. Yeah... that IS funny.

[@philipgonzalez7826]

Saw this movie yesterday and this scene had me in awh the way Taxi Driver did in its finale scene.

1:45 amazing how young martin looked back in 1972. He was 29 years old.

[@jim-se5xc]

Amazing how young we all looked at 29.

[@casioak1683]

Uh.. 29 years old is young though. Except if you groom a beard & moustache, you do look older than your actual age

[@seangagnonProvidenceR.I.]

This is a great flick . De Niro and Keitel two of the very best actors !

[@grimstarr187]

[@Beeftrout22]

This isn’t a phenomenal film but it is a really good one. Scorsese’s style is very interesting and I think it really shows in mean streets. For any die hard Scorsese fans this is a must see

[@richherrera1650]

Far better than Goodfellas.

[@cesarzpontu8886]

it is Far Better than Casino.

[@cesarzpontu8886]

Steppin' Out by Cream (album Live Cream Volume II)

[@basilmarasco1975]

Is that the live LP that has "Politician" on it?

[@stevenchido9223]

Dam he bleeding everywhere ,so realistic.

[@terranceaddison2545]

And Michael didn't give a damn if everyone else got hurt too. That included Charlie. Im assuming they're no longer friends after this

[@mercoid]

Terrance Addison any aspiring wise guy should know that hanging out with and protecting Johnny Boy after the things he did would also make him, if not a target, certainly a candidate for collateral damage.

[@tommycipriani2254]

It's business.

[@closertotheheart]

And he apparently didn't consider that maybe there'd be repercussions from Giovanni for shooting at Charlie. But then again maybe Giovanni wouldn't do anything having warned Charlie already to stay away from Johnny and Teresa.

[@terranceaddison4599]

@@closertotheheart one thing for sure, nothing will be the same after this

[@cjackdead]

Theres a fan theory that the home movies that appear during the opening credits are actually events that occur after the shooting. Charlie and his girlfriend have a baby, Johnny Boy grows up and even cuts his hair, and its said that Charlies uncle orchestrates the whole thing as Michael is in those home movies too, i think hes even posing with Charlie and Johnny Boy. Just a theory.

[@Frijolero18]

God dammit Marty why'd have to shoot Robby?

[@RTF916]

This movie's a classic but I just can't get over that poor editing with the fire hydrant. I think it's safe to say that the previous 90 minutes redeems it. I still can't believe how many Goodfella and Casino fans haven't seen this. And it's hard to get people to watch this because it's just so old school. People don't know what they're missing.

[@andreberry6958]

RTF916 Keep in mind the budget though.

[@dixondiaz8448]

In New York City, fire hydrants don't gush water when they're knocked down. They are "dry" hydrants that require opening an underground valve with a wrench. Otherwise the water inside would freeze in the winter.

[@psychokitty444]

See, I always thought it was a deliberate choice. All that dense, screaming noise gone in an instant.

[@MichaelCorleone654]

It was a deliberate choice to cut the sound. Clearly inspired by the French New Wave.

[@Harry_S._Plinkett]

@@psychokitty444 the music isn’t the problem. The way everything goes silent would work really well in tandem with the car crashing and the water spurting... all in one shot. The problem was the very obvious hard cut between the car coming to a stop and the water spurt appearing seemingly out of thin air due to the cut.

[@jim5746]

Scorsese is a master at picking the right music for a scene.

I'm I the only one that laugh's at Michael making that U - turn ? 😭😭

[@taylorahern3755]

Fun fact, before he became a BIG NAME Director Scorsese moonlighted as a part time hitman for a 3rd rate loan shark, just to have some extra spending $$$ It's all revealed in this scene😎😜☺😉

[@chuckscott4661]

1:03 Who’s the jkoff now, Johnny? 😂

[@anazaeid]

Scorsese is power man.

[@zachrizzo6525]

Robert De Niro realistically doesn’t survive that

[@basilmarasco1975]

No, he doesn't. He was hit in the carotid (neck) artery and will quickly bleed out.

[@claymac7895]

Michael was 100% going to get whacked for this. Shooting up the bosses nephew? That's a big no no.

[@astrodogg21]

Holy shit, Scorsese!

[@TroyOi]

I've always thought that that "Now's the time" line is taken from Shakespeare, but I'm not sure which play. Anyone know? (Maybe I'm thinking of "Now is the winter of our discontent")

[@ricarleite]

Richard the Third? Now is the winter of our discontent made into glorious summer by this son of York

There are more subtle ways for a director to critique an actor’s performance.

[@benderbendingrofriguez3300]

why not using a machine gun?

[@shulk9514]

Mkin

[@mercoid]

These are small time operators. Not the least bit surprising they don’t have access to a machine gun. This is definitely a plausible way it might have been handled. Although I think even more plausible is that a few days later Johnny Boy would have been hit alone in an ally somewhere. After being confident and cocky for 48 hours or so...that he got away with disrespecting Michael..., then BLAM! right in the face. This would send a concise message to all.....that you (Michael) are not to be f’d with. The way it’s done here seems too rash and not worthy of admiration from the more legitimate gangsters in the neighborhood that you crave respect from.

[@mercoid]

The streets....... They are mean. Mean as in “average”...... Get it?

[@plasticweapon]

no.

[@ricarleite]

It's the movie he needed to direct in order to make every single mistake that got him to become Scorcese. It's not very good, there is no plot, but the acting is great.

[@glassjaw2007]

not very good? its my best in my opinion! such raw editing and punishing conflicts, its just timeless!

[@gastonmamy7107]

Its is considered in the group of scorsese greatest hits... No plot?...hello! Most of the films of scorsese havent...his films arent about plot...they are about characters : mean streets, taxi driver, raging bull, goodfellas, the aviator, hugo etc
