The King of Comedy 1982
"Mr Pumpkin?"
Can never quite settle on whether I really rate this as Scorsese's best, but it's certainly De Niro's: his nervous energy is magnetic, every last lunge forth bursting with manic threat and yet a kind of warmth too. Bernhard is every bit his equal; a joy to see this with a crowd variously hysterical and horrified at her candlelit antics.
