Casino: After the Filming (2005)
*** (out of 4)
The fourth and final featurette on the CASINO special edition has Martin Scorsese, writer Nicholas Pileggi, editor Thelma Schoonmaker and producer Barbara De Fina talking about what happened once the filming was complete. This includes the editing of the picture, the music selection, the rough cut and the mixed reaction the film got. In all honesty, I don't remember the film getting many negative reviews. Some complained it was too much like GOODFELLAS but I remember the film having mostly positive reviews. For the most part this is a good way to close all the featurettes, although obviously had it ran longer it would have been better. Still, fans of the film will enjoy the interviews.
