There's one thing that really jarred me. It's the scene where the five families meet. They cut to a shot of this one guy for approximately 22 frames, and it completely took me out of the scene. I thought for a second there was an error, like my player skipped. Anyone else notice this? If it was a style that was carried throughout, it would make more sense to me, but here it just feels like a mistake. I’m going to have to go back and watch this part. I obviously remember the scene but I don’t remember taking note of those cuts. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I’m not even into guys, but Cary Grant’s suit is the coolest thing ever worn by a male of the human species; give it to me in 4K! In my mind, Cary Grant is the original James Bond in North by Northwest. That motherf**ker was smooth. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

For a time I wished Scorsese had employed a different cast for Casino, because it just felt odd seeing DeNiro and Pesci on screen together outside of GoodFellas. I no longer feel that way, and love Casino for what it is. Don Rickles is perfectly cast. Stellar 4K disc too, I agree! I also felt similar when I watched Casino. I guess I’ll have to give it another shot. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

There are so many things to love about this movie, but the reality is, I wish I were Cary Grant in NbNW, he’s magnetic. And Eva Saint Marie is, well, stunning in every way. but . . . Can’t talk about NbNW without talking about the kid covering his ears. I can’t not see it. Curious if they removed it for the new 4k restoration. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I know it’s a glaring continuity error but as a relic of film history it has real significance. oh yeah and Cary Grant here was THE MAN. And that suit. Jeeezus. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

It’s funny you say that about Cary Grant. I saw this movie for the first time when I was 10, and I wanted to grow up to be this guy. Suave and quick witted. Probably also had something to do with Eva Marie Saint and, um, tunnels. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
