Scorcese uses one shot of a shower head, but, of course, DiCaprio's character is a bit of a Norman Bates type with his own brand of identity confusion.

"of course..." ???

On subtext of the film is the father/son relationships running throughout--not quite the mother/son from Psycho but close enough.

I'd lean more toward "not quite" as opposed to "close enough" [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

BTW, I saw the movie with a date, my first one in say twenty years. (Is a thirty-five year old too young for me?)

No, but I do think you are too young for a thirty-five year old.

P.S. A student told me she also saw the film last weekend, and she pronounced it with a perfect Boston accent: "The Depaaated."

I thought that was a Cranston accent.

She also said the language was pretty bad, abd that there were a lot of old people in the audience, you know people in their fifties. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

My friend Greg and his wife just got Netflix. She really leans toward movies with absolutely no swearing, sex, or violence (that's why Greg goes to movies with me a lot). Greg asked me for some recommendations, and I thought of "Amelie". But there was that five second scene were Amelie tries to visualize all the couples in Paris who were having orgasms that moment. When I described the scene to Greg, he said he better pass on it. I gave up after that. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
