Gangs of New York

Gangs of New York (2002) is a movie by Martin Scorsese that like Mean Streets, Goodfellas and Casino, is focused in the battle of the man in the search of power. However this movie looks very different from the others mentioned in terms of time, what also change others aspects like the mise-en-scene, music, acting and others. The perception of this movie is also different from the others mafia/ gangsters movies by Scorsese because it is developed in the story of a revenge. In this movie, there is not a main story of a group of gangster that rises in terms of success, became rich and famous and then fall up to get nothing. There is a story of a boy that lost his father and after a childhood full of suffering wants to avenge his father death. In this movie Martin Scorsese presents the main ideas presented in other movies, but with a different inspiration.
