Oh my god, this reaction was fantastic!!! The fact that you already know so much about everybody's work and who everyone is, and movie making and movie history, it's just delicious to see a reaction like this. At last!!!! I want to see you react to every great classic ever made! Going back over the last hundred and twenty years! Yeah, this is a rough diamond, totally indie feeling. Amazing De Niro played the young Vito Corleone in The Godfather Part 2 THE NEXT YEAR! I mean, you couldn't have a more different character/performance! Then Taxi Driver! And the same year as "Mean Streets" he also played a southern baseball player suffering from cancer in the tearjerker "Bang The Drum Slowly". Three completely different performances/characters. The producers made him put in the nude scene, something he avoided most of the rest of his career. That actress became a producer.....and produced "After Hours"! Which is his other "indie" feeling movie, fantastic, dark comedy, amazing cast. PS: Scorsese's NEXT movie, the feminist drama "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore" is also great, got Ellen Burstyn her first Oscar and costars....Harvey Keitel and an even younger Jodie Foster! :D That one gets overlooked now but it was definitely a major one for Scorsese. It showed he could deliver a completely different type of film, and a woman's story no less.

The chubby guy in the pool hall was supposed to play the taxi cab passenger with the cheating wife in "Taxi Driver." As it turned out he was hurt on another set and couldn't do the job so Scorsese stepped in (which is why you see him sitting on the stoop earlier as a background character since he didn't expect to be in the film later on and no one would recognize him back then anyway). By the way, that was the very young Scorsese signing off this film as the gunman. (Johnny Boy probably died from the neck wound. Charlie paid for his sins by being shot. He seemed to accept his penance.)

Sometimes you have to make believe, that the story you are being told by a film, ends at last night. It’s now lunchtime the next day, and you’re buddy is telling you this wild story that ends with something insane, like a shooting. This happened last night, and you’re currently listening to your friend tell the tale, over a nice lunch. What happens next? We don’t know yet, and maybe, nothing. Nobody rats, the shooter goes to Miami for a month, the people shot at, go there separate ways, maybe the crazy guy who owed all the money, goes out to California, and becomes a stunt man. We may never know. It’s just an intimate slice of life, that we were privileged enough to hear about, so we are now able to, shake our collective heads, and realize, it’s a really good thing, not to go through life, like some kinda Mook... You seem to love the early Scorsese films, and I gotta say, you have great taste. I grew up with these beauties. I was watching them as early as grade 7, (1977 - 78), and they are intertwined in my memory with the films of other great directors, namely, Fellini, Cronenberg, and Woody Allen. I highly recommend films like, Fellini’s: I Vitelloni, Satyricon, Roma, Amarcord, 8 1/2, and, La Dolce Vita... Cronenberg’s: Shivers, Rabid, Scanners, The Brood, Videodrome, The Dead Zone, and, Dead Ringers... And Allen’s: Bananas, Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex But Were Afraid To Ask, Sleeper, Take The Money and Run, Love & Death, Play It Again Sam, Annie Hall, and, Manhattan. It’s nice to see someone else get as much enjoyment out of these early Scorsese films as I did as a kid, and I think those recommends above will be right up your 70s/80s film appreciation alley. You don’t have to react to them necessarily, just watch them at some point, and enjoy. Take a screen shot of the film recommends above, and save it for later, so you don’t miss out on these dusty old gems. Thanks for making videos eh. 🍷

I'm so glad I found this reaction. This movie often gets forgotten. I recently saw this movie on the big screen at an art school showing. Deniro's performance is absolutely mesmerizing. Coby, you're really good at reacting and analyzing. Thank you for this.

Nice reaction do a reaction on " Hard times " with Charles Bronson, James Coburn a movie during the cold depression street fighting very underrated movie And another good one is 1992 " Gladiator " another criminally underrated gem with James Marshall Brian Dennehy and Cuba Gooding jr Great soundtrack as well

I can't even believe my eyes: I just found your channel through The King Of Comedy, and I was just about to watch it........but before I did that, I wanted to see what other videos you've done. You're doing the classic Scorseses! So psyched!!!! So I'm going to start here....and I'm subscribing right now! Very excited! Are you going to do "After Hours"? That movie is HILARIOUS. But it doesn't have De Niro, I'm not sure if you're only doing the De Niros, which I understand. But don't miss "After Hours" on or off the channel, that's one of his best. And shortest!!!! Very short movie! Ok, see you on the other side!! I cannot BELIEVE I'm about to see a reaction to "Mean Streets"!

The drunk is David Carradine & the one who shot him is his brother, Robert Carradine.

Nice reaction - IMO this is the best Scorsese Scorsese movie - I don't see it as a gangster movie, but rather as a kind of autobiographical slice of life movie, a sociological mosaic of this community where Scorsese grew up - this is also the Scorsese who'd aspired to be a priest; the Keitel movies are closest to this, w a kind of Dostoevsky psycho-spirituality, reflected in a Van Gogh Expressionist cityscape - his Who's That Knocking is also like this - the most recent is Bringing Out the Dead, w Nicholas Cage Goodfellas packaged this template as a kind of musical celebration of cinema, but IMO Mean Streets is more a celebration of disjointed life itself, in all its mystery - as w Who's That Knocking, Keitel is Scorsese's muse and alter-ego - I think Keitel's Charlie is torn between wanting to be his uncle and wanting to be an unfettered spirit like Johnny Boy, and in his private moments he looks in the mirror and holds his finger over a flame - IMO this is the heart of Scorsese the artist And the movie's surprisingly non-judgemental about either path - DeNiro's Johnny Boy is an amoral force of nature, but in all his stupidity he's as vital and genuine as one of those odd characters one might bump into on a NYC street corner (and something about his defiant self-destructive spiral makes me think of Marmeladov from Crime and Punishment) - and at the same time, the uncle is shown as a hollow shell of a man, crushingly dull, w even a touch of stupidity in his narrow minded traditionalism - it's sort of hilarious how Charlie spends the whole movie basically cos-playing as his uncle (I think the "Be My Baby" lyrics that introduce Charlie reflect this side of him as an aspiring patriarch, well-meaning but condescending) - this is precisely what the young Michael Corleone was trying to escape - and Mean Streets is like Scorsese's response to Godfather

Johnny boys fate is left to your own interpretation. Also, fyi the character that shoots him is played by Scorsese.

I highly recommend watching The Irishman. In my opinion, Scorsese's best film ever, over Goodfellas, Raging Bull, maybe not Taxi Driver (but equal to). It works if you accept the special effects Scorsese employed to make DeNiro look younger. It is also incredibly long at about 3 1/2 hours long. However, the film is so well done, I wished it it was longer.

Wrong. Johnny is NOT his cousin. Johnny is Teresa's cousin, not Charlie's.

Mean streets is awesome. Probably my favorite Scorsese movie. The one who shot Johnny boy in the end was Martin Scorsese himself, not sure if you realized. You have a good sense for film and you’re beautiful
