The presence of the Andretta brothers in this story suggests how heavy the union activities are going to be covered by the film I guess. I haven't read the book or the script or anything but that angle is really what differentiates this from other mob films potentially - it's that mix and its outreach that's a unique slant.
Basically this would be like the Lufthansa heist in Goodfellas given a detailed explanation or something like that. You have first generation mob guys (the real life Pesci, Keitel roles), guys who are I guess are outside the mob but peripheral to it (DeNiro, he's not a "made" guy I'm assuming), guys in theory operating outside of it, but of course not really (Pacino's Hoffa, Ray Romano).......it's potentially a real interesting look at that intersection of people and events and history.
That's what actually makes the film stand out on paper anyway.........

Viced They filmed in Paterson for a day. Mainly exteriors, 2nd unit stuff. They've actually been shooting 2nd unit for weeks now. But technically started shooting (Day 1 of 90) on Monday. The road trip detail is interesting....... the '09 draft of the script has a road trip framing device with older Sheeran and Bufalino (De Niro & Pesci). So it seems they're sticking with that? But then that Sotorrio lady has some of the names wrong - she means Pesci instead of Pacino. I kinda wish Scorsese himself would play Charles Brandt, and then we could get the story from a bedridden Sheeran, which is how it happened in real life. They've swapped and morphed that scenario into a road trip thing...

Just curious about how much interaction Hoffa (Pacino) has with Sheeran (DeNiro) - obviously from the roles Graham and Romano have it certainly sounds like those guys would deal/associate with Hoffa more than any of the gangster types - Keitel, Cannavale, Pesci, DeNiro would? Anyway, lots of stuff online today, set pics, Pesci, too lazy to post 'em but they're out there

I feel like I should be way more excited about this than I am 😞... Maybe it's the Netflix thing.

Your Oscar Wish for Irishman? Hope it will be ready 2019 Oscar! Best Picture Best Directing* Best Actor 2x (Deniro and Pacino) Supporting (Joe Pesci) Editing* Screenplay Cinematography Production Design It's being released by Netflix. There's a strong chance, it might not get nominated for anything, even though it probably deserves a best pic nom.

Holy fucking shit! I have been praying for her to get another good role after giving one of the best performances of all time in Margaret. Makes sense too given that Scorsese worked on that movie.

Let's hope Marty hires the same people who did the special effects for Blade Runner 2049.
