Taxi Driver
Goodfellows
Raging Bull
Shutter Island

I rewatched Taxi Driver a couple months ago and while it obviously showed its age, I still found it riveting. Good choice, Lenny.

Raging Bull is a top-10, maybe even top-5 movie all-time for me. Scorsese and DeNiro both at their peak.

DeNiro in Deer Hunter is a masterpiece.

DeNiro in Deer Hunter is a masterpiece.

So are Christopher Walken, John Cazale, Meryl Streep, etc. but We’re talking Scorsese and he didn’t do Deer Hunter.

Tangentially related to "Goodfellas" (or Goodfellows) ...

A notorious Bonanno crime family capo once linked to the infamous Lufthansa heist at JFK airport depicted in the movie “Goodfellas,” has died three years after he was released from prison for health reasons.
Vincent Asaro, 86, was part of a cadre of mobsters charged with making off with nearly $6 million in the 1978 airport robbery. He beat the rap in 2015 — only to get jailed on an unrelated road rage arson conviction.

I finally saw it, after reading the book.  Monumentally disappointed.  The book was excellent too.
