If you loved We Are Marshall, 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
Theysit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to We Are Marshall, 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.
