Martin Scorcese may not have a lot of love in his heart for big comic book movies, but he sure does know how to create the equivalent when it comes to mafia movies. While some people were quick to dismiss the quality of The Irishman due to its release on Netflix, the new trailer looks like Scorcese may have put together some of the best performances in the careers of Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci.
Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci star in Martin Scorsese’s THE IRISHMAN, an epic saga of organized crime in post-war America told through the eyes of World War II veteran Frank Sheeran, a hustler and hitman who worked alongside some of the most notorious figures of the 20th century. Spanning decades, the film chronicles one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in American history, the disappearance of legendary union boss Jimmy Hoffa, and offers a monumental journey through the hidden corridors of organized crime: its inner workings, rivalries and connections to mainstream politics.
