first film I ever watched of his was  a pirate videotape of scarface in our chemistry lab when the staff were not on duty, yep he did glorify the gangster life.

I think Scarface's director was Brian De Palma, not Martin Scorsese.

Plus, I wouldn't exactly call Scarface glorifying that life myself, I mean it doesn't end well does it! Plus you basically see his decline, family relationships destroyed (with his mom and sister). What he does to his best mate in a fit of rage. 

Scorsese made up for any accusations of glorification with The Irishman (which was based on a book - I heard you paint houses.)

According to a lot of mobsters Frank Sheeran did not kill Jimmy Hoffa.

Wouldn't surprise me. This type are intrinsically deceptive and usually compulsive liars (which is how they usually survive in their world). If Frank was the type I think he was, he'd be pi55ing himself laughing over having made fools of everyone till the grave.

I watched 1917 that was good. Good story, makes you think how much them kids went through, in a war in a foreign country, watching your friends die. Compared to kids these today crying because they only get 3 likes on their Instagram post. If you enjoy that then Band Of Brothers is defo next. 

Prestige- one of my favs, with Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johanson, Micheal Caine David Bowie. Great movie about 2 magicians completing with each other and a great twist at the end.

Fight Club is great, good spiritual message in that, well I thought so about giving up material wealth and staying in Sangat- although their sangat was a fight club...

Last TV show i watched was Succession, which was fantastic. Great acting and well written.

If you like anime, Your Name is a decent movie. Deathnote is a great show as well.

Children of men,

That's a really gd  movie     some very powerful scenes. 

Something makes me think the condition of immigrant communities would be very similar to what's shown in the movie! If the world is hit by a major mother of all viruses! Or after a major war.
