Sergio Leone's great Once Upon a Time in America.Remember seeing it for the first time when it came out in 1984 IIRC in Montpellier.
 
IIRC De Niro didn't appear in Scorsee's The Last Tempations of Christ. :Winking:
Why was the last temptation of Christ 1988 banned?


Because of the film's departures from the gospel narratives—and especially a brief scene wherein Jesus and Mary Magdalene consummate their marriage—several Christian groups organized vocal protests and boycotts of the film prior to and upon its release.

Not for me!

Can't say I liked the film much myself either..Much prefered Dennis Potter's TV film Son of Man. (incidentaaly I used to see DP with a few of his mates on the terraces at Craven Cottage. Also used to know his very attractive wife when I worked in Harrow in social work).

Saw Call Jane earlier in SC's cine de auteur season.Exceellent performance by Sigourney Weaver as a 1968 abortonist.Obvious propaganda for Roe v Wade in the US but still a decent enough film.

Behave yourself, he was more woodern than a railway sleeper. My dad thought he was great, I couldn't stick him.
You're clearly talking about his auto accident in the mid -50'S when he couldn't move one side of his face -hence the Clash's The Right Profile".He made some great films.
