In Reply to: L'atalante... one of my favorites! posted by Victor Khomenko on November 12, 2002 at 17:03:57:
I was typing at work and completely forgot Ivan the Terrible, but I've only seen it twice, and not for a long time. I feel worse about leaving out Andrei Rublev, although I think I've only seen it twice.I think Goodfellas is one of Scorse's best, for reasons I don't have time to go into here. While I love The Grifters, it's probably just a great little thriller, not a "masterpiece", but it makes a nice companion piece to Goodfellas - two different takes on the American Dream and American greed.
Oops...I just realized I misspelled "L'Atalante" - darn bifocals.
