If you loved The Aviator, try Gangs of New York
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Martin Scorsese, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Aviator, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Gangs of New York is
Five Points, 1860s winter, a bowie knife. Amsterdam Vallon infiltrates William Cutting's gang, seeking revenge in a city of Irish slums and anti-immigrant violence. Scorsese revisits his mean streets roots.
