MEAN STREETS (1973)

Featuring: Robert De Niro; Harvey Keitel; David Proval

Director: Martin Scorsese

In so far as Who's That Knocking At My Door placed Martin Scorsese on the map, Mean Streets is generally regarded as the film that established him as director of note. It was also the first of many movies that he and Robert De Niro did together. 

This movie is about...actually, why should I be the one to tell you what the movie is about if the accompanying trailer does it so well? So, for once, rather watch the trailer (see link below) in stead of reading your truly's version...

One must keep in mind that this was made during the early '70's. So if everything - and I mean everything - seems to be a bit old fashioned and outdated, that is the reason.

With this in mind also, I can rate it 2 out of 5 stars.
