Departed was a great film, reminded me of Kurosawa, and like it or not Leonardo is a good actor.
BTW, the HDTV broadcast is quite good, ABC usually screws these things up.
I'll watch Departed when it comes to one of the premium channels. I don't usually rent DVDs or go to the movies, and I'm watching the Oscars on HDTV too. I'm not used to watching live programming. I usually record everything and fast forward through the commercials.
