Is it me, or does Mean Streets have no plot. Don't get me wrong, I love the film. I actually bought it for just a few shilling on video. The basic plot outline is Jonny Boy's lack of money and his payments he can't pay. But the way the script is written, it seems like more of a secondary plot as we follow Harvey Kietels character more than Jonny boy (De Niro).

Theres not many films that are plotless and good, but two others that come to mind are Scarface and Glengarry Glen Ross.

I also ask a question. Has the DVD copy been remastered because the video version is quite poor but sort of fits the mood right?
