Fine but flawed...

Rating: 7/10 (18 March 2020)

A fine, assured film in so many ways but with, for me, two significant flaws... DiCaprio and it should have been in black and white.
DiCaprio doesn't have the lankiness and his voice is too high pitched. Physically, he looks better in the role with the moustache in the latter half of the film.
Visually, the black and white would have elevated the picture to another stratosphere and perhaps hidden some of DiCaprio's shortcomings.
Anyway... the rest of the picture is mostly first class. Scorsese's direction, the production, etc.
I'm an avid fan of both the film and Charles Higham's book and have my own copy.
