Quote Quoting Irish (view post)
The movie touches on other decades, but the bulk of the action takes place from about 1955 (shortly before Kennedy's election) to 1975 (Hoffa's disappearance).

The occasional captions stuck to one mobster or another said a lot of these guys died in the late 70s or early 80s, and by then the movie's story is definitely over. The rest of it, with funeral scenes or Frank in the nursing home, plays more like an epilogue.

My point was more that the CGI prohibits the characters from aging in normal ways. There's a big difference from somebody at 40 and somebody at 60 and you don't really see that on screen.

I mean, shit, look at any long running TV show in recent memory. Those might last 10 years and the actors look noticeably different from the start of the run to the end of it.

But in "The Irishman," everybody's appearance is oddly static -- plastic heads stuck on old man bodies.
I can't outright disagree with anything here. As I said before, I will have to see how I feel on repeat viewings.
