PB, you're right about that movie's younger viewers. Remember that episodes of Two and a Half Men when Charlie is watching Jaws with Jake? Jake says that we're 40 minutes into the film and haven't even seen the shark yet. I can imagine him watching The Irishman and wondering where that opening song came from.

In any case, a great movie that completes that Trilogy: Goodfellas, Casino, and now The Irishman.

By the way, I thought the background theme of Peggy's estrangement from her father (and her avoidance of Bufalino) was so unique in a film such as this. Her sixth sense told her that they were not all they appeared to be.
