Mean Streets is an absolute must, IMO. You could probably write a thesis on that movie alone.
Brilliant film. Definitely one of my favorite Scorcese flicks.
Signor V.
Yup! Right now, I'm looking at Knockin, Mean Streets, and Taxi Driver (w/ the later 2 looking at salvation through suffering, and the first more on the guilt) I wanted to limit myself to 70s films (though Knockin is technically 69, its close enough) thus avoiding Temptation, which I already did a 15 pager on last summer for a religion class. It actually sprung out of a much larger project, Catholic Themes in the American New Wave, which is a MUCH larger topic then I have time for right now
Capo, where are you going for your masters?
If winners never lose, well, then a loser sure can sing the blues.
