NY Film Festival: Scorsese praises Netflix for backing 'costly experiment' of TheIrishman

finally made its debut at the New York Film Festival.

During the press conference, Scorsese credited Netflix for finally putting up the money they needed to make the film, which others, including Paramount, were unwilling to do. The film, which spans decades, uses de-aging visual effects and makeup to make De Niro's Sheeran and Pacino's Jimmy Hoffa, among others, appear at different ages. The digital VFX was handled by ILM, though specifics of the techniques hadn't been revealed, and had prompted a great deal of curiosity before the film was unveiled and the youthful magic remained unseen.

"It may be true," he admitted, but added, "I didn't want to muddy up the emotion and power of what he's going through and what Bufalino had to deal with and Jimmy's sense of 'I'm above the law.'""[Frank's] not a psychotic. He finds himself in a moral conflict because he's basically a good man yet he has to go through with it. How does he live with it," he said.

N.Y. teacher who had students write 'funny' captions on photos of ex-slaves apologizesThe superintendent of Freeport Public Schools said the lesson 'is an insensitive trivialization of a deeply painful era for African Americans in this country, and it is unacceptable.' Not something you teach children to make fun of! That also teaches them that there was nothing wrong with what happened or it was not as bad as it seemed and neither of those two ideas are the ones we need to teach our young. lmao Why don't these damn black trouble makers get over it? No one living today had anything to do with some of their ancesters in slavery. It's over. Get on with your life. Go to school, get educated and get a job. You all get better treatment then the whites.
