Oscar for Thelma!

Rating: 9/10 (7 October 2006)

You'll read enough praise in these boxes of Marty. He is superb and we all know it.
This film is also superb. It's one of the only examples I can think of, even though I am a DiCaprio fan, sometimes it is unavoidable to be conscious that we're watching a performance and not a character. His work in "The Departed" is an incredible exception.
I'm just here to say that the editing work by Thelma Schoonmaker once again raises the bar so high its stupid. the film is edited so frenetically yet so deftly and light it is amazing to watch.
9 out of 10
