I saw the term "potboiler" applied to The Departed by some review. I thought the term meant "suspense", but m-w.com defines it as: a usually inferior work (as of art or literature) produced chiefly for profit.
M-W need to amend their definition: Pot full of water. Add plenty of rough chopped potatoes. Lots of salt. Burner on full. Now watch it come to boil slowly but surely. Let boil over.
Damn it's been a while since I've head some satisfying stew!!
Thank you, Mr. Scorcese, grandmaster chef extraordinaire.
