The Lobby: Martin Scorsese's The Irishman (Patreon)

The Irishman will not be Martin Scorsese's last film, but it feels in so many ways like a final statement that it's all but impossible not to process it as a culmination of the director's career — so much, in fact, that Keith and Scott had to take a couple of days to compose themselves before discussing the film for this bonus episode. With the film currently enjoying a modest theatrical run before its Netflix debut on November 27, they got together to discuss what makes The Irishman a "major" Scorsese film, as well as the story's fluid relationship with the truth, its purposeful marginalization of women, and whether the much-discussed de-aging effects are successful in the context of the actor Robert De Niro has become.
