I thought gangs of new york would have been better if LDC and DDL's roles were swapped. DDL can convey emotion more sincerely which makes an audience empathize more readily while most folks have an easy time hating LDC.Gangs isn't going to be looked upon as one of Scorsese's finer films. He also needs to stop working with LDC. I'm going in to Avaitor with luke warm expectations.
Follow Ups:
Huh? Day-Lewis nailed the part. Swapping roles? Idiotic. Leo was fine in Gangs playing the part of a feral youth. The film's problems had more to do with story arc and pacing.
