How much of it is acting when a crazy person depicts a crazy person?
He’s still angry over the discovery of his father’s homosexuality......
Precisely
My old girlfriend taught his first set of kids in Manhattan in the 80s
She was shocked to observe what a dullard he was
Little Red Schoolhouse
With Dylan
I know more on Mr DeNiro
How he and Harvey Keitel forced a black whore on Penny Marshall’s nine year old grandchild in the Hollywood Hills years ago
He’s a scumbag
Needs to be beat down but good
The sort of environs both he and I grew up in you didn’t write checks with your big mouth your ass couldn’t cash
Respectfully, Raging Bull was a great movie, but I personally don’t think it was that difficult to play a pissed off fighter when in reality, you are a perpetually pissed off person who envisions yourself as a tough guy. Never saw Taxi Driver, so can’t comment. Obviously, my retrospective analysis of his acting is very much biased by how irritating he is publicly now. He has, however, done a fair amount of schlock movies as well - including the ‘Meet the Fockers’ series of movies.
I finally watched Taxi Driver a few months ago.
I honestly have no idea what all of the hubbub was about.
To me it was a at best mediocre movie and kind of boring and contrived.
The great DeNiro....yea, whatever.
I’m reading his 3 1/2 hour Irishman movie coming up on Netflix is getting great reviews.
I’m wondering if i should watch it or not..
F deniro..
For those who don’t remember, Taxi Driver, whatever you think of it, was the movie that inspired John Hinckley to emulate De Niro’s character in order to “impress” Jodie Foster, to shoot Ronald Reagan.
De Niro’s character had a shootout and killed the pimps who controlled Foster’s teenage prostitute character in order to rescue her from that life.

Taking crazy to a whole new level.
I’m sure CNN has a dump button.
Someone should ask CNN why the net chose not to use it.
