2006: Smelling Rats in THE DEPARTED
Manage episode 327252435 series 2865408
Is "The Departed" Martin Scorsese's best movie?
It's the only one of his films that has won Best Picture at the Oscars, and the only one for which he's won for Best Directing. So it's gotta be his best! ... Right?
In this episode, Mike and Brian put on bad Bostonian accents to talk identity, machismo, pulpy genre, love triangles, self-seriousness as humor, corruption, organized religion, over-the-top performances and rats ... oh, so many rats. Then they decide if "The Departed" really does belong in the top five of 2006, or if the Academy (gasp!) got it wrong.
