The N.Y. Post flamed this latest Scorsese movie. It's historically inacurate, most of the acting stinks, and doesn't even use much of the book's material. Pure Hollywood drivel; so says the N.Y.P. ! Read the book; I did ... long ago.

BTW, you have mail. :-)

Thanks for the mail...I just got it. I have had trouble logging on tonight....I loathe my cheap 1.2 gig AMD processor....it's shakey and prone to freeze up....and my cable company server seems to let a lot more flotsam up the pipe than my DSL does at work. I need my techie to come over and bail me out.

I sort of figured Scorsese would make this into a lefty class warfare thing....is that close?

I did hear Lewis was quite good in his role?

Wasn't the old 5 points area around the Bowery and the old old Police Station?....I should have read up and studied it more when I lived there.

Warm Regards.

THIS MOVIE SUCKS, REALLY SUCKS, and I loved Scorcese with Taxi Driver etc. However, I don't care if the libs screwed up the history or not, it just isn't worth a spit! This one has lots of colors and camera shots of gratuitous fighting, and we usually love gratuitous fighting, but this baby face boy, with a sorry Irish accent, and fighting?... nope.... it doesn't work...we 3 guys walked out after 45 minutes... save your money...came home and watched CONAIR... again!
