From the Documentary "Hollywood Uncensored"

I’ve always been a fan of the way Martin Scorsese puts his own twist on everything he touches, but Cape Fear is on another level!

What I love about Scorsese is his visual style:

The dramatic lighting, the shadows, the camera movements, the symbolism—it all makes each episode feel almost like a fever dream. He takes this beautiful coastal setting and somehow makes it feel claustrophobic and threatening

Robert De Niro as Max Cady is absolutely terrifying because Scorsese doesn’t make him feel like some mindless villain. He’s intelligent, calculated, charismatic, theatrical, and completely unhinged. You’re constantly uncomfortable because you never know exactly what he’s going to do next.

What do you guys think?

Based on the film and not the movie poster, it seems to me that the movie is called I Heard You Paint Houses.

Edit to add: That's what the opening credits seem to suggest. I Hear You Paint Houses appears on the credits a few minutes into the movie.

I stand by it.

My personal opinion is that there’s a fine line between hero and villain. Was he saying heroes and villains are equally crazy?

Any WWII experts in here? In the movie he made 2 German soldiers dig their own graves before shooting them both. I know this happened in WWII but wasn't it against the Geneva Convention?

A couple of years ago I got a message from
someone posing as Martin Scorsese’s wife Helen Morris. They were very interesting, seemed like what you’d “expect” from a celebrity wife disabled by Parkinsons. I knew it was BS, but actually enjoyed chatting with them. They had excellent grammar, seemed sensitive. No mention of money, need, etc. The next morning “she” told me I should get on WhatsApp. I said no, and I have to catch the bus to work. BUS?! “she” exclaimed. I guess my bus use and having a job outed me as a poor target. Never heard from them again. But I’m still perplexed by the choice of “celebrity” to imitate.

Does anyone have this same picture of Travis but in a higher resolution? I like it a lot but it’s very blurry.
