Im unable to because rent and bills have to come first and because im on wellfare i dont even have the spare $3 to go and hire it but i got a job interview so hopefully that will get me back on track.

Do you have a library card?

Oh my god!!!No shit!!Why didnt i think of that ages ago!!Dont they charge to hire films?

I agree, I enjoy it more and more everytime I watch it. And don't beat against the Irish. He should have made an Irish movie 20 years old, his Oscar would be dusty as sh*t now

This film could easily be placed near the top of my list, next to Casino and GoodFellas!

Have anyone heard about an interview on MTV with Mark Wahlberg where he said that they're making 2 parts! a sequel and a prequel to the departed?! any ideas?

Yes, our friend Don Pacino already started a topic about that in this thread.


THE DEPARTED SEQUEL & PREQUEL

I still say it's a bad idea....but I'd see it anyway .

Finally saw this and one question I got is, why did he say he could only trust her when Dignam was still around and he knew the truth. Why not just give him the tapes. Still a great movie though.

Costigan didn't know where to reach Dignam because Dignam went "underground" after he quit.

I dunno, he went to Queenlands house and he might have knew that he Dignam was gone for two weeks. It's no big deal, like I said, great movie.

My theory is that Dignam went underground, doing his own little ruthless investigation into who capped his boss, and later his co-worker in Costigan...until Vera Farmiga gets him Billy's tapes....then he goes out for bloody revenge.

Yeah?

I agree Ronnie. After watching some idiots debate on whether or not Dignam was on the take, and a mob mole in his own right (Not here, on IMDB) I read the script online, to see if it mentioned Dignam's POV. It does, it reads that Dignam avenged the death of a cop that he "didn't even like", because it was the right thing to do. He just couldn't let him get away with it.

Dignam a mob mole? Interesting.

Of course, if that was ever intended, my only problem would be this: If the mob has Dignam the mole, why need to send another in Damon into the same HQ?

Maybe Dignam though is a mob mole of another crime outfit outside of Nicholson's.

Anyway, I still think the guy was a cop who got pissed that his boss/mentor and partner were killed, and he got his revenge.
