TAXI DRIVER (1976)

Scorsese’s portrait of the classic lone wolf white male remains highly acclaimed, but I wonder if it hasn’t done more harm than good.

RAGING BULL (1980)

Scorsese’s “masterpiece” about a boxer whose life falls apart because of his toxic masculinity.

GOODFELLAS (1990)

Scorsese’s most cutting exploration of the gangster lifestyle. I like the movie. The lifestyle’s not for me.
