Gangs Of New York Movie Description:
Amsterdam Vallon (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a young Irish immigrant released from prison. He returns to the Five Points seeking revenge against his father's killer, William Cutting (Daniel Day-Lewis), a powerful anti-immigrant gang leader. He knows that revenge can only be attained by infiltrating Cutting's inner circle. Amsterdam's journey becomes a fight for personal survival and to find a place for the Irish people in 1860's New York.
Gangs of New York is a 2002 American epic historical drama film directed by Martin Scorsese and written by Jay Cocks, Steven Zaillian, and Kenneth Lonergan, based on Herbert Asbury's 1927 book The Gangs of New York.[3] The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Daniel Day-Lewis, and Cameron Diaz, with Jim Broadbent, John C. Reilly, Henry Thomas, and Brendan Gleeson in supporting roles.
In 1863, a long-running Catholic-Protestant feud erupts into violence, just as an Irish immigrant group is protesting the low wages caused by an influx of freed slaves as well as the threat of conscription. Scorsese spent 20 years developing the project until Harvey Weinstein and his production company Miramax Films acquired it in 1999.
Made in Cinecittà, Rome and Long Island City, New York City, Gangs of New York was completed by 2001, but its release was delayed due to the September 11 attacks. The film was theatrically released in the United States on December 20, 2002 and grossed over $193 million worldwide. It was met with critical acclaim and received ten nominations at the 75th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director for Scorsese, and Best Actor for Day-Lewis.

My father told me we was all born of blood and tribulation, and so then too was our great city. But for those of us what lived and died in them furious days, it was like everything we knew was mightily swept away. And no matter what they did to build this city up again... for the rest of time... it would be like no one ever knew we was even here.”

"Just get a horse and go straight there." There was a reason a lot of people preferred to take a boat around South America. The middle of North America was wild, uncharted, had few resources, and was full of Native Americans who weren't happy about the ongoing invasion. If you drive 8 hours a day, that's a week long trip by car. Back then it would have been a couple months. And you had to time the crossing right so that you didn't end up crossing the Rocky Mountains in the winter.

Also, as this takes place in 1862/1863, about half of America is the Confederate States and there is war raging everywhere. By that point, the Confederacy was reaching as north as Virginia which is right along the Pennsylvania border. And after you crosses the Mississippi, if you could, you'd be basically on your own once you were past Kansas until you reached California. And as the person above me said, you had to time it right so that you didn't cross the Rockies in winter. It may seem counterintuitive at first,but that boat was probably a little more safe to get to San Francisco.

Regarding the anticlimactic ending: I felt the same as you the first time I saw it ... but it actually makes sense and it's consistent with the theme of the movie. At the beginning of the movie, the gangs are in charge and they settled their own disputes ... but as the city began to "moderenize", the gangs started to lose their power. And in the end, they weren't even allow to settle their own disputes.
@kristopherheenk2710

It also shows just which gangs actually have the most power -- the government army laying waste to everyone without discretion or remorse, and the politicians standing tall in the end over the graves of the fallen people, ready to carry on and do what they always do like nothing happened.

@nathancollins1715 2 года назад
@@kristopherheenk2710 Pretty much this. Not to get overly political in the RU-vid comment section, but more people need to realize that all governments on Earth were born out of what were essentially gangs. That's the root of all power structures, is just whatever hegemony gets big and bad enough to take out the rest by force and plant themselves in the land. Gangs of New York is about the "old way", tribes of like minded individuals taking what's theirs to take with no particular tribe having any kind of objective legitimacy over the rest, being supplanted by the "new way", which is what happens when a gang becomes a government, and now all of a sudden there are rules in place to keep them at the top.

@HmStH111 2 года назад
Yeah, it's a pretty hard bait and switch. The movie builds up a lot of expectation towards Bill and Amsterdam fighting but then that gets swept away as the actual problems of the city erupt in a full scale war. The first time you see it feels wrong because traditional narrative demands that everything should be about the characters resolving their conflict no matter how petty it was. Second time - and this a movie that gets better with rewatchings - you can see the parallel build up, the racial and class tensions rising, etc and it fits. Also, while not based in actual characters (I think) the gangs existed and had those names and the thing the riots and the army laying waste everyone is actual history.

The reason that their fight was anticlimactic was to underscore that their fight was exceptionally small and inconsequential compared to what was going on around them. Bills death was a testament to his era ending. They targeted black folk because they were viewed as the reason for the Civil War, and thus the reason people were getting drafted. It was a unique, and overlooked time in our history.

They also had an entirely different economic model; utilizing the steady-stream of Irish immigrants as a disposable workforce. In the South, a slave was to be housed, fed, and cared for medically - while the North didn't much care one whit what happened to one Irish immigrant or another - as there were always more coming off the boat every week.

Great reaction to one of my favorite movies for sentimental reasons. As it came out shortly after 9/11 and I’m a survivor of that horrible day, every time I see the Twin Towers with the graves in their shadow, I cry as I remember new victims created in the shadow of ones already at rest. I think the reason you might have found the final battle of the gangs anticlimactic was because it was overtaken by real history. The Civil War /Draft riots shown were a real event. A shameful event in NY’s history. They were worse than what was shown in the film. They were only broken up by Union soldiers called to NY from the battlefield at Gettysburg. Great job on this reaction. Please watch more DDL films and add The Last of the Mohicans to your bucket list. You won’t regret it!

Daniel Day-Lewis' whole monologue about getting to power and how he keeps power shows his Shakespearian chops. The dialogue and his very subtle performance shows a man tired from age and trying to keep himself on top. It even alludes to if the effort is even worth it since there hasn't been any honor in it since his last honorable foe, the immigrant mirror image of him. The way he talks about him is like someone losing a dear friend or a brother. This performance put me on notice about him and its my favorite of his roles...Daniel Plainview from There will be Blood on the other hand is a once in a generation performance.

Daniel Day Lewis' greatest Oscar winning performance is EASILY for the movie My Left Foot. The movie was robbed of the best picture award that year too. It's based on the life of an Irish writer and painter and Day Lewis puts in a truly inspiring performance. I promise, the movie will not disappoint and will give you a proper insight to REAL Irish mentality and our ability to make light of even the worst situations

There isn't much to like about Bill The Butcher. He grooms young, unfortunate, Irish kids to do his dirty work. Fake honor. If he truly respected Priest Valon he would have gave a softer stance on the immigrants and slaves and respected what he fought for. He's a total sociopath. Which is why I love the character. Lol

This is the length Daniel Day Lewis took to stay in character while filming Gangs: he came down with Pneumonia, but refused to wear a warmer coat or seek medical attention because he was sticking with he time period of the film. He was eventually persuaded to go to the hospital. He also kept up with the New York accent of his character even outside of filming.

The scene with the fire departments fighting each other. Happened in damned near every city in the US. Because at the time firefighting could be a for profit venture. Insurance companies paid out a reward to the fire company that put out the fire for their customers. So these for profit operations would rush to a fire, if the competition also shows up they do everything they can to prevent the competition from putting out the fire and collecting the reward money. A number of times the companies were so busy fighting each other that not only was the first house burned to the ground so we're the neighboring houses. The companies were also notorious for looting any of the buildings that they "save". This continued for years until fire departments were deemed necessary for the public good and local governments took them over.

You said it best: "This movie was....ok". 4:34 : "I don't know about the music..." Yeah, I know what you mean. Love Daniel Day in this movie, but Scorsese's best stuff is before this movie. Real excited to hear you're doing "There Will Be Blood". Wait until you see Daniel Day Lewis in THAT movie, holy smokes! That, and "Boogie Nights" (with John C. Reilly, Mark Wahlberg, Don Cheadle) are the two best Paul Thomas Anderson movies. The De Niro/Scorsese movies, those are the ones that are most legendary and classic, virtually all of them are masterpieces. "Raging Bull" Is the best boxing movie ever. "Cape Fear" is intense 90s suspense thriller. "The King Of Comedy" is crazy hilarious and, along with "Taxi Driver", is what "Joker" is paying tribute to. "Casino" is an amazing mob movie, "Goodfellas" in Vegas basically.

I really need to rewatch this movie. It's been quite a while. But I remember that ending shot of how the graves disappear and the city grows in the background. 100 and some years of change in 5 seconds. That was striking. I realized the same thing will happen to us. Me, you, everyone who is alive now. In just 75 years or so, no one will be alive that knew you after your death. Do we, alive in this time, know (or care) what people went through 100 years ago? How they lived, struggled, and survived. It's insane to even think about, but this movie brought all that realization out, and more, in 5 seconds. One of the best endings to any movie.
@goldenager59
@goldenager59 2 года назад
This is the reason why being a historian is a noble undertaking. One dedicates oneself to seeking out surviving sources that can put voice back in a mouth that has been silenced with the dust of the centuries. Did you ever read through any of the Biblical genealogies? Most people consider them a dreadful bore, but I find them enthralling. All that we know of so many people mentioned in the Bible is a name. Nothing is known about what they looked or sounded like, what their families were like, what their favorite foods or colors or times of year were, what they knew or imagined about their world, the crises that afflicted or ended their lives. Only their names, and not a thing else. (And such alien names! How many men of our acquaintance are named Uz, or Lud, or Hul, or Obal, or Joktan?) And yet, at that, these people, though each one is a near-total blank to us, are supremely lucky. How many billions of humans lack even a name for posterity to savor and ponder over? Yet there they are, ciphers maybe, but ciphers with names, registered in the most widespread book on Earth. The ancient Egyptians were right - a name is a man's immortality, more even than his deeds. To know a name is to acknowledge among the shadows a single identity. To speak that name is to bring that person, however tenuously, back into the world of the living. 📜 👄

@goldenager59
@goldenager59 2 года назад
@@Grnademaster A learned man was once asked how a man may best act to make his name immortal. He replied, "Kill the man who has accomplished the greatest deeds. Then, whenever the great one is mentioned, you too will be remembered." History is full of the sick, the deprived, the misinformed and misused, who are so desperate for recognition that they would commit some act that, however fouled their name will thereby be, assures they will not simply pass into Oblivion, unmarked and unregarded. Just as it is easier to destroy than to create, eternal infamy is easier to obtain than eternal renown. Many men in American history chose this path by seeking the lives of our great men; four succeeded in taking down the men in the highest office of the land. Now our nation lies under the terror of the next nonentity who, with machine gun in hand, shall go out in a blaze of ignominy and take who knows how many inoffensive fellow-citizens with him. Such a man may suddenly acquire a fierce belief in God and assign himself agency in His designs, for he knows that immortality awaits him whether he lives or dies in his attempt. He only fools himself, for it is a wretched - and, ultimately, short-lived - sort of immortality. The genealogies in the Bible list name after name of people we know nothing else about, not even if one of them committed a murder in his lifetime. Those who truly trust in God and work to please Him - in the ways of love - need no recognition from their fellows, good or bad. Societies, cultures, civilizations are as mortal as the people that animate them. Languages fall out of use, writing becomes illegible. Existence is brief, time is relative. God alone endures - or, for the agnostic, truth. A human working kindly in its little sphere who has a healthy regard for those around him need never concern himself with immortality, for God knows all, remembers all, and rewards justly. A person who acknowledges the existence of the Divine, appreciates Its power, and trusts It completely will be well prepared to live a life that will be worthy of remembrance, by men as well as the Deity. And, history is thankfully as replete with such quiet heroes as it is with the well-publicized ones who fell prey to bleak cynicism and frustration. And so, do seek to please God more than to please your fellow mortals, since - for all we know - no human is ever nameless to the Almighty. 💖 😇
