The wolf.

Martin Scorsese’s last film, called: The Wolf of  Wallstreet, it’s like  the old Martin Scorsese. When I mean: ‘the old Scorsese’ I mean, the director of greatful movies, like: Taxi driver, Ranging Bull and Goodfellas.
The article in fact, is a review of this film. It’s very interesting, because the author Xan Brooks not only speaks about the storyline, instead he talk about the changes and similarities in this film with the rest of filmography. Therefore, if you want understand, you should to see, the latest movies of this director.  An example of that, it’s when he said: “it is, put simply, a pantomime GoodFellas, played largely for laughs, with DiCaprio in the Ray Liotta role and Jonah Hill installed as a cuddlier version of Joe Pesci”. 

There are so many references about the rise and resounding falls, in the cinematography of Scorsese. But in this case, it’s not about the mafia; instead it’s about the financial heart of America: Wallstreet. Leonardo DiCaprio is the protagonist, he talk to the camera and we can see his transformation from a common employed who try to win money to a demented financial speculator, addict to the money, drugs and sex and everything was illegal. The film holds in the performance of DiCaprio. He’s a machine addict to adrenalin even when his world felt apart.
