Tidbit: 'The Irishman' (2019; R)
Thelma Schoonmaker's editing is leisurely paced and timely, and enables you to savour stellar performances from Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, Al Pacino, and others, without interruption. I didn't grasp the minutiae of union politics, which seems to be at the heart of the conflict in this film, but the elegantly simple camera work and editing, and solid acting, kept me attentive nonetheless. De Niro's performance is memorable.

I write about movies to capture moments and experiences, the same way we take photos and home video, to capture moments. I write about movies to celebrate the motion picture art form.
