So many people ask me, 'Do you like 'Departed?' I say, '50/50.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There are people who didn't like 'The Departed,' you know?
Ah, 'The Departed' is really good.
Now that I'm older, a real source of interest is the ages of the dead, the number; the day is off to an optimistic start when the departed are all older than I.
I haven't died in a movie in a while,'The Departed,' 'Body of Lies,' 'Revolutionary Road,' 'Shutter Island' and 'Inception.' I guess I did die in 'The Departed.'
'50/50' is a comedy. I shouldn't say it's a buddy comedy because it's not farcical, and it's based on a true story, but it's viewing that experience through a very truthful lens of humour.
Eighty-five per cent of the time, people want to talk about 'True Romance.' That's the film I've made that really seems to have stuck with people.
I love '50s music, all that stuff from the '50s.
I like '50s and '60s American art. I have 85 or 90 Warhols.
I love the '50s and grew up loving works from that time period and from those great playwrights.
If you have 50 years in the business, you can probably count on only five good movies.
