I've already watched The Irishman several times and will probably watch it several more times over the next few months. As has already been the case, it has generated an inventory of questions and speculations that I imagine will continue for years to come just as we ask questions and speculate about The Trilogy. So, I'll add one or two.

Why did Scorsese include the scenes of Frank disposing of his guns at the bridge and have Frank narrate about it? It would seem that once was enough if at all. In the same vein, why was there a scene with Frank deciding which gun(s) to use to murder Gallo and the scene of him disposing of them after the murder?
