RAW!

Rating: 9/10 (23 December 2001)

Scorsese proved that 'Mean Streets' wasn't a fluke, and that film making could be Raw, Exhilarating and Gritty, while at the same time appealing to the masses.
Casting Jodi Foster (A Disney child film star previous to this movie.), as the Teen Hooker, was work of pure genius. Besides the fact that Jodi knew how to really act, and that she did a great job in this part, it provided the movie with an attention grabbing gimmick.
The amount of people drawn in and enlightened by Scorsese's art film, increased substantially.
A must see movie, the acting performances are gripping and legendary. "Are you talking to me?"
This film is talking to you.
