Material development

Rating: 9/10 (13 February 2014)

In this movie by and large designers, operators, editors, writers and, even, actors are absenced; there is only burning Scorsese's genius, escaping out with three hours of unrestrained abomination, sometimes hilarious, sometimes disgusting.
His hatred to capitalism is as obvious, as in classical Nabokov's "Lolita", and quite material as well. It falls with a great power on the tape to expose all wicked characters, definitively dying under classical «Hey, Mrs. Robinson» and, even in their last minutes at large, screaming something about annual salary; and show, how Patrick Denham, discreetly grinning, is leaving picture on the saving train of honesty, or happiness, if you want.
And who will dare after that to say, that Scorsese did for the cinematography less, than Nabokov for literature?
9,5 from 10
