The Irishman is, arguably, the last great mob movie. Directed by Martin Scorsese (Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, Killers of the Flower Moon) and features a huge ensemble cast including Robert De Niro (Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, A Bronx Tale), Joe Pesci (Casino, Goodfellas, Home Alone), Harvey Keitel (Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, The Piano), Anna Paquin (X-Men, True Blood, The Piano), Stephen Graham (This Is England, Snatch, Boiling Point) and many more. It also stars Al Pacino in his first ever team-up with Scorsese. Something film fans have been waiting years for. Based on the memoir of Frank Sheeran, a mob enforcer who became friends with legendary teamster Jimmy Hoffa.Film Critic Brian Tallerico, managing editor of rogerebert.com, joins the podcast to discuss this crime film. Brian explains the history of Hoffa and how it fits into his life, what this film means when it comes to Scorsese's output and why Pacino's performance is quite understated in the film. Brian also asks an interesting question about role reversals. All About Al: The Pacino Podcast is written, produced and presented by Mark Searby. Hosted on Acast.

When Teamster leader Jimmy Hoffa headed to a "meeting" in July of 1975 with two leaders of the local underworld he had no idea the betrayal he probably encountered. While this is the 49th year of his disappearance the most likely scenario is that his best friend ended his life in some misguided decision of loyalty. Frank Sheeran's death bed confession in his biography "I Hear You Paint Houses," was startling and is the mostly likely scenario. The biography was the source material for Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman." Hear the story in this weeks episode.

For today's episode, we delve into the mournful crime masterpiece that is Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman.” Join critics Keith Phipps and Ben Friedman as we explore the genius of Scorsese's direction, Robert De Niro's chilling portrayal of Frank Sheeran, the soulfuss of Al Pacino as Jimmy Hoffa, and the return of Joe Pesci to the big screens, in this fascinating deconstruction of the crime genre. We'll discuss the film's themes, its impact on the crime genre, and its enduring legacy in cinema.
Happy 300th Flixwatcher! In this special birthday episode Sam Pay and Martin Zaltz Austwick from Song by Song join Flixwatcher to review Helen's choice The Irishman. The Irishman is a 2019 Martin Scorsese film, based on the non-fiction book I Heard You Paint Houses by Charles Brandt, it tells the story of Frank "The Irishman" Sheeran a truck driver who becomes a hitman for the mob. Robert De Niro stars as Frank Sheeran, Joe Pesci stars as Russell Bufalino, the crime boss of the Bufalino mafia and counsel to Jimmy Hoffa, played by Al Pacino. Ray Romano, Bobby Cannavale, Anna Paquin, Stephen Graham and Harvey Keitel also star in supporting roles. The Irishman is notable for its 209 minute runtime - three hours and 29 minutes of mob violence and International Brotherhood of Teamsters - labour unions in the US. Recommendability for The Irishman was mixed, despite general consensus that is it a very interesting film, the three hour plus runtime goes against it. Unsurprisingly the repeat viewing scores very quite low and overall The Irishman scores 3.36. Enjoyed Sam and Martin as hosts? Check out past episodes The Drunken Master and The Nice Guys.

On this episode of CHRIS AKIN PRESENTS..., Chris sits down with mafia author and documentarian Scott Deitche. Deitche checked in to talk about his new book HITMEN: THE MAFIA, DRUGS AND THE EAST HARLEM PURPLE GANG as well as his tours that he conducts known as Tampa Mafia Tours and more.
“Associate – An associate is not a member of the Mafia, but works for a crime family nonetheless. Associates can include a wide range of people who work for the family. An associate can have a wide range of duties, from virtually carrying out the same duties as a soldier to being a simple errand boy. This is where prospective mobsters ("connected guys") start out to prove their worth. Once a crime family is accepting new members, the best associates of Italian descent are evaluated and picked to become soldiers. An associate can also be a criminal who serves as a go-between in criminal transactions or sometimes deals in drugs to keep police attention off the actual members, or they can simply be people the family does business with (restaurant owners, etc.) In other cases, an associate might be a corrupt labor union delegate or businessman.[66] Non-Italians will never go any further than this, although many non-Italian associates of the Mafia, such as Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegel, Murray Humphreys, Mickey Cohen, Frank Rosenthal, Gus Alex, Bumpy Johnson, Frank Sheeran, Jimmy Hoffa, Jake Guzik, Gerard Ouimette, and James Burke, wielded extreme power within their respective crime families and carried the respect of actual Mafia members. Soldier (Soldato in Italian) – A soldato or “soldier” is an inducted (or “made”) member of the Mafia in general and an inducted member of a particular Mafia crime family, and traditionally they can only be of full Italian background (although today many families require men to be of only half Italian descent, on their father's side). Once a member is made he is untouchable, meaning permission from a soldier's boss must be given before he is murdered. When the books are open, meaning that a family is accepting new members, a made man may recommend an up-and-coming associate to be a new soldier. Soldiers are the main workers of the family, usually committing crimes like assault, murder, extortion, intimidation, etc. In return, they are given profitable rackets to run by their superiors and have full access to their family's connections and power. Consigliere – The consigliere is an advisor to the family and sometimes seen as the boss's "right-hand man". He is used as a mediator of disputes and often acts as a representative or aide for the family in meetings with other families, rival criminal organizations, and important business associates. In practice, the consigliere is normally the third-ranking member of the administration of a family and was traditionally a senior member carrying the utmost respect of the family and deeply familiar with the inner-workings of the organization. A boss will often appoint a trusted close friend or personal advisor as his official consigliere. Caporegime (or capo) – A caporegime (also captain or skipper) is in charge of a crew, a group of soldiers who report directly to him. Each crew usually contains 10–20 soldiers and many more associates. A capo is appointed by the boss and reports to him or the underboss. A captain gives a percentage of his (and his underlings') earnings to the boss and is also responsible for any tasks assigned, including murder. In labor racketeering, it is usually a capo who controls the infiltration of union locals. If a capo becomes powerful enough, he can sometimes wield more power than some of his superiors. In cases like Anthony Corallo they might even bypass the normal Mafia structure and lead the family when the boss dies.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support

In 1975, the notoriously corrupt union leader Jimmy Hoffa vanished without a trace. Due to his various dirty dealings, the FBI assumed it was a mob hit but could never find evidence to back it up. For decades it seemed the question "Who got Hoffa?" would never be answered — until 1999, when Hoffa's old right-hand man, Frank Sheeran, begins confessing on his deathbed...

This week we discuss two critically acclaimed mafia films from one of cinema's greats, Martin Scorsese. The first is The Irishman (2019), starring Robert De Niro, as mob hitman Frank Sheeran, and Al Pacino, as teamster president Jimmy Hoffa. The film, the budget of which allegedly spiralled to around the $250 million mark, was eventually acquired by Netflix and earned 10 Oscar nominations. The second is Casino (1995), starring Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci as Vegas mob men. This film, which was based on the real-life exploits of Lefty Rosenthal and Tony Spilotro, was somewhat overshadowed by another Scorsese mafia film released only a few years earlier, Goodfellas.

PENDENTE: Rubrica su Cinema, letteratura, fumetto ed esperienze culturali
Sesta puntata di una rubrica dedicata a film o serie TV amate e venerati/e da tutti ma che, personalmente, non mi hanno mai detto alcunché. Titolo di questo appuntamento è "The Irishman", gangster movie diretto da Martin Scorsese e basato sul saggio di Charles Brandt sulla figura di Frank Sheeran e del suoi coinvolgimento nella "scomparsa" di Jimmy Hoffa.
Vänskap är ett begrepp som har sysselsatt tänkare i åtminstone 2400 år. Mikael Timm ansluter sig till grubblarna och tar hjälp av Martin Scorsese. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Ordet vän behöver ingen förklaring, men det behöver ordet vänskap. Grunden för systematiskt tänkande om begreppet ger Aristoteles som definierar tre olika sorter: sådan vänskap man har nytta av, sådan man har nöje av och så en tredje sorts perfekt vänskap när vännerna delar allt utan egennyttiga intressen. De flesta skulle kanske invända att de tre kan flyta ihop, men låt oss ta det i Aristoteles ordning. Sociologen Pierre Bourdieu slog igenom drygt 2000 år efter Aristoteles med sina studier av vänskap som baseras på utbyte av tjänster, alltså Aristoteles första art av vänskap. Verkligen inget nytt men det som väckte uppmärksamhet var att Bourdieu hävdade att systemet också gällde inom det kulturella fältet. Vänskap, som vi uppfattar som något mycket individuellt, skulle alltså följa samma mönster överallt. Att det är bra med vänner som kan hjälpa en är självklart men Aristoteles framhåller att det inte gäller att ha för många vänner för vem hinner med att utföra alla dessa gentjänster? Man bör alltså skaffa sig just så många vänner som man har behov av. Denna första sorts vänskap kräver beräkningar. Den andra sortens vänskap, den som man har nöje av, låter trevligare. Men Aristoteles ser förstås problem. Dels är det svårt att dela känslor och tid med en massa människor, dels bör ju ens vänner också vara vänner sinsemellan. Kan bli krångligt om man också tar hänsyn till den första sortens vänskap med tjänster och gentjänster. Och är det inte något skumt med den som har en massa vänner? Har hen en enda sann vän, är inte vännerna egentligen beundrare, snyltare eller bara festande affärsbekanta? Skummisarna i Martin Scorseses film The Irishman funderar inte på detta. Sheeran, (spelad av Robert de Niro) en lite grovhuggen chaufför som är torped och hans mentor Russell Buffalino (spelad av Joe Pesci) mördar sig igenom decennierna och blir allt bättre vänner. Deras vänskap är visserligen från början nyttoinriktad, alltså kategori ett hos Aristoteles. Men den övergår till nästa nivå de har roligt tillsammans i pauserna mellan morden. Och mot slutet är de verkligen vänner utan utbyte av tjänster. De befinner sig i den oegennyttiga och framtidslösa - vänskapens sista stadium som för dem också är livets sista stadium. "The Irishmans" storhet är inte intrigen, skildringen av brottlighetens koppling till politiken utan vänskapen som just därför att den omges av grymhet är gripande och öm. Ja, Aristoteles tredje kategori av vänskap ligger inte så långt från kärleken. Så vad skiljer dem åt: Det har sagts att berättelser om kärlek visar hur man kan knyta an till en specifik individ, medan berättelser om vänskap visar hur man kan knyta an till livet självt. Jag vet inte om vi får de vänner vi förtjänar eller får vi kanske de vänner vi inte förtjänar. HmmEller så får vi inga alls. Enligt en undersökning 2014 är en och en halv miljon svenskar socialt ensamma, vilket innebär att de inte har någon vän som de kan lita på för att få hjälp och uppmuntran. Brist på vänskap kan sålunda ses som ett samhälleligt problem. När Jacques Derrida på 80-talet gav en serie föreläsningar om vänskap var det helt i tidens anda. Han var den store dekonstruktören som öppnade välbekanta begrepp som man öppnar konservburkar och tömde ut innehållet på laboratoriebänken. Föreläsningarna blev en bok som Derrida inleder med Aristoteles ord Åh vänner, ingen vän. Eller talspråkligt: Oh, mina vänner, det finns ingen vän Vad menar Aristoteles finns det ingen verklig vänskap? Eller fanns det inga vänner bland lyssnarna? Derrida utgick från en felöversättning. Aristoteles menade nog helt enkelt att den som har många vänner inte har någon. Men felöversättningen var en bra utgångspunkt för Derrida som var ute efter något annat än att förstå vänskapens psykologi. Han såg vänskap som ett politiskt fenomen och försökte via vänskapen förstå individens plats i kollektivet. Men Derrida var ofta lika mystisk som klarläggande. Texten glimrar vackrast när han belyser hemligheternas betydelse för vänskap något som varje barn som varit medlem i ett hemligt sällskap känner till och som protagonisterna i The Irishman erfar. De som delar en hemlighet delar sina själar. Derrida påpekar att man ser sig själv i sin vän. Möjligen är det förutsättningen för både hemligheter och vänskap. Men finns där redan från början en önskan om att överleva den andre? Ser vi vännens död i samma ögonblick vi delar något med vännen? Liksom ett barn kan föreställa sig hur de orättvisa föräldrarna gråter vid barnets grav föreställer sig Derrida vännernas mumlande vid graven. Men det räcker inte att sörja den döde vännen. Derrida menar att man måste kunna se framtiden i vänskapen, alltså en framtid utan vännen. Hans bok är skriven i klyftan låt mig säga avgrunden mellan samhälle och individ. Då blir den självklara frågan: Kan vänskap vara en modell för hur politiken bör fungera? I så fall bör vi betänka att Aristoteles menade att för att vänskap ska existera måste vännerna vara jämställda. Vänskap mellan människor med alltför olika tillgångar fungerar inte. Den italienske sociologen Francesco Alberoni publicerade i början av 80-talet en bok om Vänskap. Man skulle kunna tro att han som sociolog skulle närma sig ämnet realpolitiskt men begreppet vänskap låter sig inte trivialiseras. Det är med vänskap som med renhet: det behövs bara en liten dos förorening för att en substans inte längre ska vara ren menar Alberoni som också säger att det inte går att rädda en förlorad vänskap. När tilltron är förlorad är den förlorad för alltid. Han menar i likhet med Aristoteles att vanskap bygger pa jamlikhet. Men Alberoni går längre än Aristoteles och beskriver vänskapen som en ideal form av kärlek eftersom parterna är jämställda vilket de inte är i en kärleksrelation. Undrar just om de italiensktalande gangstrarna i The Irishman hörde talas om Alberoni. Förmodligen inte, de läste nog mest om mord i tidningen. Men de kunde ha instämt i den italienske sociologens synpunkt. Vännerna är viktigare än makarna i filmen. När deras familjer är borta når deras vänskap perfekt balans. När Frank och Russell är gamla, utslagna och maktlösa behöver de inte balansera känslor mot nytta. En som skulle förstått svårigheterna i denna balansakt är Cicero, antikens bäste talare. Cicero såg vänskap inte som psykologi, inte som utbyte av tjänster utan som en form av godhet, nästan en ideologi: goda senatorer skulle tillsammans sträva efter goda mål. Dygden skulle sprida sig och man skulle kunna lita på varandra. Vänskap var alltså för Cicero ett idealtillstånd. Och sann vänskap skulle utmärkas av uppriktighet Ja, vi kan se var svårigheterna börjar. Inte långt efter att Cicero hade avslutat boken om vänskap blir han mördad. De blir också de flesta i The Irishmans cirkel av vänner. Filmen slutar och börjar på ett ålderdomshem där torpeden minns sitt liv. I Montaignes berömda essä om vänskapen till Etienne de la Boétie minns essäisten sin vän i ett förklarat ljus. Det gör inte Frank Sheeran. Han minns det förflutna med obarmhärtig klarhet. Ingen försoning är möjlig, det goda fanns bara i gemenskapen med Russel Buffalino trots att det var denne som gjorde Frank Sheeran till mördare. Jimmy Hoffa, deras gemensamma vän, en officiell makthavare, var i grunden solospelare och måste därför mördas av vännerna. Som Cicero. De två maktpelarna förstod inte den grundläggande regeln: Utan vänskap inget liv. Mikael Timm, kulturjournalist och författare

For some of the real story, and for a great American tale in itself, you want to go to Jack Goldsmith’s book, In Hoffa’s Shadow.” —Peggy Noonan, The Wall Street Journal"In Hoffa’s Shadow is compulsively readable, deeply affecting, and truly groundbreaking in its re-examination of the Hoffa case . . . a monumental achievement." —James Rosen, The Wall Street JournalAs a young man, Jack Goldsmith revered his stepfather, longtime Jimmy Hoffa associate Chuckie O’Brien. But as he grew older and pursued a career in law and government, he came to doubt and distance himself from the man long suspected by the FBI of perpetrating Hoffa’s disappearance on behalf of the mob. It was only years later, when Goldsmith was serving as assistant attorney general in the George W. Bush administration and questioning its misuse of surveillance and other powers, that he began to reconsider his stepfather, and to understand Hoffa’s true legacy.In Hoffa’s Shadow tells the moving story of how Goldsmith reunited with the stepfather he’d disowned and then set out to unravel one of the twentieth century’s most persistent mysteries and Chuckie’s role in it. Along the way, Goldsmith explores Hoffa’s rise and fall and why the golden age of blue-collar America came to an end, while also casting new light on the century-old surveillance state, the architects of Hoffa’s disappearance, and the heartrending complexities of love and loyalty.

Martin Scorsese dissed Marvel films last year. Dissed them hard. Luckily for him, as much as I am a ride-or-die MCU fan, I’m also professional AF, so I was able to put my personal feelings to one side when discussing his new pile of bullshit, The Irishman. • Telling the story of a professional hitman, the film covers decades in the life of Frank Sheeran, utilizing top notch de-aging technology to allow Robert De Niro to play him at all ages. The technology is also used in a lot of Marvel films, and used a lot better IMO, but that’s neither here nor there. • It’s been nominated for 10 Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay. But is it any good? • To help me decide, I enlisted the help of a woman who is allergic to films over two and a half hours, Tiffany B, to chat about Hulk Hogan, riding feminist horses so long you get saddle sore, and challenging Robert de Niro to a fist fight. • There's a spoiler-free section, followed by a spoiler-filled, so if you've seen the film or not, there's something for you to listen to! • Cheers!
Armed with a newfound sense of vigour and purpose, we storm into 2020 with the first Required Reading for over a year. Let’s not dwell on the reasons for our absence and instead celebrate the fact that one our greatest living directors has reunited with some our greatest living actors to add tremendous weight to the argument for streaming services being a legitimate platform for fantastic films. The Irishman, ironically, marks the start of a new era for RR with what’s very much an end-of-an-era epic. Based on the non-fiction work I Heard You Paint Houses, it follows the life of mob hitman Frank Sheeran, widely thought to be the man responsible for Jimmy Hoffa’s demise (although you can’t prove nuthin’, ya hear me?). Did the latest, possibly final Scorsese/De Niro pairing earn the highest RR accolade, the incredibly prestigious McCartney? Only one way to find out. Also: Dan’s first ever quiz and more VoD recommendations than is really necessary.
Many of you have probably found three hours and 29 minutes to watch the Netflix movie 'The Irishman' based off of the hit man Frank Sheeran's testimony of what happened to the famed Jimmy Hoffa. This movie is considered one of the best movies of 2019 and many believe that it will change cinema. This week we take a look at why that is. Join us as we give the fastest synopsis of the plot you will ever hear and discuss spiritual temptations that the mafia exudes but can also be found in our own lives including; justifying our sins, isolation, and invincible pride. #WelcomeToTheAdventure Media References: Exodus 90 (Spiritual Fasting Program for Men) The Irishman (Netflix Movie) Marriage Story (Netflix Movie) Catching Foxes (Podcast) Art of Manliness (Podcast) Catholic Stuff You Should Know (Podcast) Jimmy Akin's Mysterious World (Podcast) Greetings Adventurers (Podcast) Catholic Answers Live (Podcast) The Witcher (Netflix Series, Books, Video Games) Adult Content The Lord of the Rings (Books, Movies, Future Amazon Series) "I Heard You Paint Houses" by Charles Brandt (Book) UMD Newman Catholic Campus Ministry by Fr.

We spoke with Manuel Roig-Franzia, features reporter for the Washington Post https://www.washingtonpost.com/people/manuel-roig-franzia/
It's 2020 Folks. The Future Is Now! So what better way to start the new year than take a look back a few decades at a time where the Mafia was more relevant and in power than any other time. The Irishman and Uncut Gems take a look at two different men who found their selves and what we would see as a less than desirable circumstances. In the Irishman we follow Frank Sheeran, played by De Niro, a truck driver who found him self quickly mixed up with mobster Russell Bufalino, played by Joe Pesci, who came out of retirement mind you to only do this film. all leading up to the disappearance of teamster leader and mob affiliate Jimmy Hoffa played by the, "WHO AH" man himself, the great Al Pacino. Uncut Gems on the other hand takes place in current day and follows Howard Ratner played by Adam Sandler. Now you may be thinking wait the guy who does the funny voices and did ridiculous comedies by in the the 90's and earily 2000's? Yes, one in the same. Only this is perhaps the best thing Sandler has ever done. Howard Ratner is a Jewelry dealer In the diamond district of New York City and a gambling problem that what would put even Charles Barkley to shame. Howard buys this rare gem online one day. only to ignite a chain of one horrible choice after another. If you haven't seen this one yet we would strongly encourage it. Now we come to Underwater. We admit its such a weird combo of movies to put together. Underwater is worth talking about but we just couldn't see us giving it a full episode all its own. That being said. Underwater is worth seeing for sure! Kristen Stewart did a phenomenal job as well did the rest of the cast. if your a fan of the Abyss and Sphere then this is right up your ally. To end the episode we talk politics and the risk of WW3 while joking a lot of the time, this might be the longest ever segment on politics we've ever had on the show.

"It was a bad hit." In Martin Scorsese's The Irishman, Frank Sheeran tells us that Sally Buggs was killed by the mob for speaking to the FBI without informing the mafia, only to find he did in fact tell someone that he was having a meeting with the feds but that person forgot to pass the message on. But is this really true? Could it be that Buggs was indeed talking to the feds, and was it in fact because of him that the likes of Russell Bufalino, Frank Sheeran and Anthony Provenzano were all sent to prison?

Earlier this week, the Fox News Rundown covered the Catholic Church's sexual abuse crisis and how new state laws could force the institution to payout billions of dollars to victims. We spoke to Jonathan Morris, who is a theologian and a former Catholic Priest, about the future of the Church and how it has responded to thousands of allegations of abuse. If you heard Monday's segment, the Fox News contributor offered both an honest and compassionate perspective on this complex topic. What you did not hear was the other part of the conversation. It turns out Jonathan Morris has a role in one of the year's most discussed and critically acclaimed films, “The Irishman”.
