I just noticed that he never does "romance". Even when he's married in Godfather 2, there's none of it. Fine actor, but he was surrounded by a lot of fine roles in the 70s, and I don't think he's choosing wisely, since I haven't heard his name mentioned with any movie in many years.
People who think anyone (almost always a woman) marrying someone with more money than they have is a "golddigger." That makes you of an "ilk." You have no clue about their personal relationship, so you should just STFU!
Some people will always carry on an argument/discussion on the losing side purely out of loyalty that it was their assigned "side" at the start of the discussion , no matter how ludicrous and untenable that side gets.
Like they are in "debate club" at school (if such things really exist).
My mom is one of these :)
I'm also wondering if this mental mechanism is why Trumpers will never stop their undying support.
There is very little love in their romance. He wanted a sexy showgirl type arm piece and she wanted material wealth.
They should have never met!
DeNiro didn't look at all like Jimmy Burke, the real life Goodfellas character he played.
He's just so great in the Taxi Driver/Maniac roles that I sort of look past it. He was terrific in The Killers Of The Flower Moon, very conniving and cruel, but he didn't look like the real guy who orchestrated a lot of those murders.
I wasn't buying it. I didn't feel they had any chemistry. She had more chemistry with James Woods, coming and knowing the same world. She had all the money, whatever she wanted, but she wanted that guy, not De Niro, and even the trust seems to contrived (the bank account in both names).
That certainly was an interesting dynamic to the story.
Woods was such a great star, I really loved him in True Believer, Cop, The Onion Field, Videodrome...the guy was a great star, he always shined!
I think his politics got him shut out of Hollywood, that's a real goddam shame. I really respected his work but within the bullshit Hollywood crowd you have to follow the cult...You know, the cult that tells everyone to 'save the planet' while they fly personal jets to their four mansions and tell us our personal guns are a big problem while they stroll around with armed bodyguards.
Woods was on a similar level with John Milieus and Sam Peckinpah but slightly less crazy.
WTH, is everyone in pictures a bowing wimp now?
What happened to MEN in Hollywood?
Robert and Meryl sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby in a baby carriage. "Falling in Love" movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sF8Qxy8NBIY
