THE DEPARTED Is My New Favorite Scorsese Film! 😱Added:
Hey everyone. So, after a month straight of X-Men [music] movies, which has been amazing. Don't get me wrong. I've absolutely loved my time in those. We're jumping into a one-off movie again. I'm so excited. And I put the fate of what we're watching today into Patreon's hands. And you guys picked The Departed.
I know absolutely nothing about this movie. I picked it because it is one of the higher more higher on my list ones that have been recommended a lot. That whole entire Patreon poll is actually full of movies that I would really like to get to this year. So, I think The Departed was actually more recently recommended after my first Scorsese film, Wolf of Wall Street, which was absolutely wild. Wildest movie I think I've ever seen. I'm seeing that the cast in this is absolutely stacked. We've got Leonardo DiCaprio. Very excited to see another one with him which I think it's funny that Scorsesei DiCaprio first Scorsesei film also my first Leonardo DiCaprio film. So this will be my second for both of them. Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen.
I saw that this one won an Oscar for best picture and also a best director award as well. So I'm very very ready.
Let's jump in. I don't want to be a product of my environment. I want my environment to be a product of me.

>> What an introduction.
The Knights of Columbus. Eh, I didn't read anything about this movie, so I don't know what I'm going into. Seems gang related.

I'm afraid we all have to get used to it. Got family connections down in Salty, right? Through your father. Why don't you tell us about your uncle Jackie?
>> He was a carpet layer for Jordan Marsh.
Uncle Jackie was a small time book. He attended by the vets in Somerville.
>> Oh, >> he got popped by the Castro in 95. We found his body out by the airport.
>> Oh, >> that's right. I remember his funeral.
>> Good. Close gasket.
>> That's right.
>> What's happening?
>> Tell anybody up at Deerfield. That is before you got kicked out for wheeling on a gym teacher with a folding chair.
Hey, I don't go medicine to demise like that.
I got a question. Stop by you.
>> What?
>> What you got? Staff Sergeant. No time.
You made Sergeant.
>> Siou. What a country.
>> Perfect.
>> Hey, I don't mind going it alone. You know, if you went alone every once in a while, you might get somewhere.
>> We're cops. All right. This isn't somewhere.

>> This unit is new and you are the newest members of it.
>> I think he's pretending to be a cop.
>> We've been selected for it on the basis of intelligence and aptitude. This is an elite unit. Our job is to smash or marginally disrupt organized crime in the city by enhanced cooperation with the FBI represented here today by agent Frank Lazio. And we will do it.
>> There's so many famous people in this movie.
>> That's Jackie Costigan. That's an old picture. Jackie met his demise.
Costello uses three key guys. That's Fitzy. Off the boat psycho. Lives in Brockton with his mother. She's straight out of going my way. Bella Hunt Muscle French number one. But of course, the rock star.
>> We've done a briefing book, so read up.
I want any and all ideas so I can pass them off as my own.

You were like different people. You a psychiatrist?

>> They're wrong about him though, right?
Are they?
>> Do you want to be a cop or do you want to appear to be a cop?

I'm the best friend you have on the face of this earth. And I'm going to help you understand something, you punk. You're no cop.
>> He's right. We deal in deception here.
What we do not deal with is selfdeception.
You could be anything else in the world, but you will not be a Massachusetts state trooper.

You're trying to prove something to the family.
>> When you say the family, who do you mean exactly? You always have to question everything, don't you?
You know, maybe it would have done you some good to have some questions from time to time. You know, am I an [ __ ] Is my wife a money grubbing?
Those are questions, right? Have I ever been good to my dying sister or am I just now pretending to be?
>> Wow.
>> Do you need some money for the funeral?
>> When my mother dies, we don't have any more connection.
>> So, he really is a cop. He really wants to be a cop.
>> There's a great view of State House, Beacon Hill. You can see it. I mean, you move in. You're upper class by about Tuesday.

tax-free.
>> What?
>> We can't conceal that we're a trainee.
You'll be convicted of a crime. We're thinking a guilty plea to assault and battery would make sense.
>> You do enough jail time to convince anyone this is no setup. You'd be on probation, see a court ordered shrink, the whole nine yards.

>> Every weekend, Sergeant.
>> Perfect. Oh, >> do it again for me.

>> Wow.
>> Somebody, as you may already know, stole 20 microprocessors from the mass processor company.
These are the kind of processes they put into computers that could put a cruise missile up the ass of a camel from a couple hundred miles away.

>> So, who did the two guys from Providence?
>> Jimmy Papis.
>> What happened to Jimmy Papis?
>> Jimmy had a heart attack in jail. Then he got himself knifed at Boston City Hospital. I believe it's been in the papers.

[laughter] He's >> trying to get his face swelling down.
>> I handpicked this group. You're my A team. Now I prime.
Personally, I don't trust half the [ __ ] troopers out there. Any bottom line, we think we might have a problem.
We think Costello's got a rat in the state police. [clears throat] >> That is a crazy saying coming from him.
>> This is for you. From now on, call to buy. Ask for Mikey. Just Mikey. You ask for Mikey because there is no Mikey.
>> Wait, we'll call you. You got that?

>> I got promoted. All right.
>> What? What does that Is that mean something?
>> Nope.
>> If your father were alive and saw you here sitting with me, let's say he'd have a word with me about this. In fact, he'd kill seven guys just to cut my throat. And he could do it. Wow. The >> uniform clipped him for a suspended license. However, as he's the subject of an open investigation, >> more than one. Yeah. He's one of Costello's crew.
>> Yeah. We're getting a warrant. We can't get an address off of him.
>> He paid his lawyer, but the lawyer hasn't called back yet.

Look at Dick. You don't got to trust me.
Just listen to what I'm saying to you.
>> He's trying to get him to warn them. Can they hear what's happening right now behind the glass?
Mom, I'm not going to make it home for supper.
>> Sorry. Yeah, I got held up.
>> Bye.
>> Everybody out. Move.
>> Yeah, that's exactly what that was.
>> Run the last number he called. That's his house. Now, whatever the address is, I'll swear to the judge I surveiled him there. And abra ever, we got a warrant.
>> Why did you use my phone?
>> Cuz you didn't go in there.
>> That's crazy.
So, they didn't hear anything you just said, obviously.
>> Sitting to talk about last night.
>> What happened?
>> You know, it's all right. Guys tend to make too big a deal out of it.
>> What it is? Pen not work.
>> It's actually quite common.
>> I got to go to work.
>> Let's keep it with you. Talk about how you feel.
>> How I feel?
>> Oh, what the heck?

>> How did you know he was a cop?
>> Bad haircut, no dress sense, and a slight air of scumbag entitlement.

>> Oh boy. You should get a better job, huh?
They all uh they all come in here and cry. Your cops?
>> Sometimes they do.
If they've had trouble at home, if they've had to use their weapons, >> use their weapons.
>> They signed up to use their weapons.
Most of them, >> but they watch enough TV so they know they have to weep after they use their weapons. There is no one more full of [ __ ] than a cop.
>> Wow, that's crazy. Oh, I see you. You have a record of assault?
>> Yeah, >> with a sprite. You think you can pop somebody and there's a special card to play? That guy, Jimmy Vags, whose jaw you broke, happens to work undercover for the Boston Police Department.
>> Oh my gosh.
>> It's been a year of this. I've had enough of this [ __ ] >> Calm down. All right. Most of the people in the world do it every day. What's the big deal?
>> He's losing it.

>> What do you do, honey? You send him off on the street to score smack. Is that what you do?
>> Well, he's a great actor. Oh my goodness.
What is that?
>> Two pills.
>> Oh, >> why don't you just give me a bottle of scotch and a handgun toing head off?
>> Uh, you know what? You can leave.
>> I just put myself through.
>> Dang.
>> And what if that was a legitimate threat? Think about it. [ __ ] hot shot.
>> That went horribly. He's so stressed. I don't know why I didn't even like think about it like that.
>> I mean, if you're in distress, I will help you.
>> What's this?
>> It's my card and a prescription for 20 lazip.
Is >> it enough to commit?
>> Maybe it is. Have I done my job up to your goddamn standards? Because according to my standards, you fit the model of drug-seeking behavior.
I'm transferring you to another counselor.
>> So, you want to get a cup of coffee?
>> Oh jeez. Now he's macking on his girl and apparently he's having peed problems.
>> Lots of cash is going to change hands inside a building that we have under AV surveillance close by. I know this offsite location is not the best, but we've had very little time to set up. Do >> you guys know?
>> So, who we're after? We've been after this [ __ ] sucker for a long time, and tonight we are going to get him.
>> Hi, Dad.

Huh?
You don't pay much. You know, it's almost a [ __ ] feudal enterprise. The question is, who thinks that they can do what you do better than you?
The only one who could do what I do is me. A lot of people have to die for me to be me.
>> You want to be me?
>> I probably could be you. Yeah. Yeah, I know that much.
>> But I don't want to be you, Frank. I don't want to be you.

Oh jeez.
Can he trace it? Trace his phone. Is that a thing?
>> Yeah.
>> Call this number on a dead guy's phone.
Who are you?
>> So it is you.
Thank god you're all right. We were very worried.

>> We need you to come in. Can you come in?
>> Does he know it's a trap?
>> Yeah. FBI informant. That's right. He didn't know that, did he? Police have confirmed that the body of the man found dead in the Finway Marshes yesterday afternoon is that of Timothy Dela Hunt, an undercover policeman for the city of Boston.
>> He was undercover.
>> I still don't believe he was a cop. I don't believe it.

You saw Fitz.

We'll take this prick tonight. All right, let's go now.
>> Wow.
How much longer can he keep this up without somebody figuring it out?
>> All right, it's the warehouse he owns over on Sheffield. He's got to have a container or a truck or something there.
>> Wait, he's actually bringing them there.
>> Frank wants me to check the back. All right, you go ahead. I'm back.
>> Does he know? He knows something's about to go down.
>> Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
>> Oh my gosh. Shot him in his heart.
Oh my goodness. This is so messy.
This is terrible.
Oh my gosh. No. He's Jeez.
Oh my gosh.
Did he get shot?
He left. Is it because he found out that he was an FBI informant?
>> You're an FBI informant? Are you [ __ ] kidding me?
Of >> course. I talked to the FBI. They know who I am.
>> I never gave up anybody who wasn't going down anyway.
>> Oh, >> nobody knows nothing.
>> Frank, do they know about me?
>> I know about you, you know. I'd never give you up here like a >> like a son to you. Is that what this is about? All that murdering and no sons.

You know that guy?
>> Yeah, we were classmates in the academy together.
>> So he doesn't know him.
>> Colin Sullivan. We spoke on the phone.
>> Yeah.
>> Now, how long were you undercover?
>> Long time.
>> I can't even tell you the debt. I just want you to know I'll be recommending you for the Medal of Merit.
>> Oh, yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Oh.
>> Just want my identity back. All right.
That's all.
>> I understand you want to be a cop again.
>> No. No. Being a cop's not an identity. I want my identity back.
>> Hold on. You'll have to excuse my behavior. My only contact in the last 6 months has been a police shrink.
>> Oh no.
>> How's that working for you? Is it helpful?
>> What are you going to do about Costello's rat building?
I'm going to find him. I'm going to arrest him.
>> Good. And if there's anything you can do to help me, Frank ever mentioned a name, you know, anything, someone he was in contact with, anything you can give me.
>> I'm all done being a cop. All right.
>> Just want my money and I want to go home.
>> All right. That'd be the best thing I think for everybody.
I just I can't get into your file unless I have your password.

He knows it's the citizens folder.
He knows about it.
[music] What's he going to do?
Why did he go into the other room to do this?
What the heck? All right, everything checks out. So, let's get you paid.
Oh, no. He didn't put it back exactly how it was found.
Oh, no. He deleted his identity like forever.
>> I know. I'm not I'm not here for that.
Okay. I'm not. Is he going to warn her?
>> I've got to give you something.
Something I need you to keep from me.
>> Wait, what? What is it?

>> But >> look, I'm I'm sorry to even I'm sorry to even show up here like this. You know, there's just no one else I could give it to.

>> And they they say that this little speck is a peanut.
>> She's pregnant.
>> It's a boy.
>> Yeah. Well, one usually follows the other.
Still, uh, >> I thought he was having pain problems.
What if it's not his?
Oh, >> are those ladies?
>> Find this cheesy rat bastard in your department. You can assume it won't be me who pays for it.
>> Now, why would you have to remind me of that, >> Frank? You got to trust me. I can get the rent. You just got to let me do it my way, Frank. Just let me do it. Let me do what I do.

Oh my god. He's He shot him in the Like this is just >> I'm speechless. Like I don't know.
>> I immediately checked the vitals on both troopers Brown [music] and Costan and discovered that they had expired.
I just want to go on record. I'm recommending William Costigan for the Medal of Merit.
I'm I'm stunned.
So stunned.
>> May his soul and the soul of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.
>> What the heck?
Oh, the the envelope. The envelope that he gave her. What's in it?
Gosh, it was so abrupt. I felt like I was just Is he putting it together that they were together?
I feel like that's what that look was.
That was insane. Just blam blam. Blam.
You get a head shot. You get a head shot.
>> What about the baby?
>> Oh, I forgot about the baby. It's really not even his. So, I think you're good.
Oh, >> okay.
Was he working with Costello the whole time? What the heck?
I feel like he had to have been a rat.
Either that or he just lost it and had to get revenge for what happened to Queenan and also his informant. I mean, he had to have cared for him at least a bit. And I know he definitely cared for Queen. I don't know. I have to Google it. Like, I need to while I'm here with you guys. I just I need to get on Reddit or something.
Okay. So, no. Staff Sergeant Dingum Dingdom is not a rat in the departed.
He's a loyal, foul-mouthed, and aggressive police officer. He acts as a handler for Billy. Yeah. Kills the actual mole Sullivan to avenge his colleagues. So, the latter of what I said, it was an avenge death. That makes me feel a little bit better cuz I thought that maybe he could have been a mole and then the whole time, the whole time he was just working right alongside of him. And maybe that's why he never arrested [music] Frank. It's just one thing after another. We're building a case. But that is actually true to what these investigators do. It's always with the higherup guys that are building a case to put them away for life. What a good movie. Scorsesei knows how to show a conversation and it feels so organic and I'm sure that it's because of the amazing incredible actors that are in the movies that I've seen him do so far like Wolf of Wall Street and now he was the director of this one and the conversations feel like I'm literally another chair in the room and I picked up on that a lot in Wolf of Wall Street and even though it was very drugs and X and, you know, all of that. It was very intense. Um, I saw some stuff that I've never known about my whole life with that movie. I really liked it and I enjoyed it so much because of the conversations. They were so offthe-wall and insane and just out there that I couldn't help but appreciate it and like it. And I definitely got that same feeling in this movie. But I I have to say between the two, if I'm like, you know, which Scorsesei film is my favorite so far, it is 100% this one. I loved this movie.
Who's the informant and who's the rat and the very intense psychological heaviness that comes with being a rat. I've never really I guess I've never really thought that deep into it before until Bill put it like I'm in a room with a mass murderer and my heart is pounding but my hands never shake and I just like I loved that line. It was so deep and really made me think about informants and how intense their job must be. But wow, incredible incredible movie. My my mind just it was blown just like everyone else's mind was blown in this.
Not at all how I expected it to go down in the [music] end. I did not see Frank just kind of like dying to Sullivan's hand. That was insane. But he was so triggered that you're an FBI informant the whole time. He's like, "Yeah, of course." Like I'm I'm covered. I'm set.
And it kind of put into perspective [music] what the crime life is. he's protected by the FBI. And [music] it it's kind of funny thinking back to them first shipping the case and talking about it like we're going after Frank.
He's like, we don't care about the FBI.
Like they're a bunch of mushrooms or whatever. However he put it, it was much more intense than that. But [laughter] yeah, that was it's kind of crazy now looking back because Frank's been an informant with the FBI all along. He's been in bed with them. He's been covered, protected by them. So, this case that they've been building and trying to turn into something, it's going to yeah, go to court eventually and then the FBI is going to have their hands all up in it and it's just going to be insane. He didn't even have that choice. He didn't even have that chance, I should say, to get arrested because of everything that went down. And then I started to feel kind of bad for Sullivan in the end because he thought he was being played and then he tried so hard to lie and cover up his tracks to keep things even keel and he's just been so conditioned by Frank since he was so young that you could see it in his eyes.
He just didn't understand the way of thinking that Costigan had a true cop had. He just he couldn't get into that mentality. He truly thought that he was doing no wrong. And yeah, in the end there, I did start to feel bad for him.
I did start to feel sad that he has been conditioned his whole life by [music] Frank and this is the life that he was given because Frank wanted to play father. Absolutely loved this film.
Thank you guys so much for voting on it.
I definitely want to watch the rest of the movies on that poll. So, they will be coming sometime this year as I can get to them. I really love Scorsesi's style a lot. So, I'm definitely gonna have to watch more from him for sure in the future because I've loved both of these movies so much from him so far.
Thank you guys for hanging out with me.
I will see you all in the next one. Bye.
