Glad that you enjoyed it. If you really think about it, almost all of the child actors had a striking resemblance to the actors that played the older characters.
Definitely one of my favorite movies. One that absolutely requires at least a second viewing.
Warning, Spoiler:
So tell me, do you think that the Senator (Max) killed himself?
Warning, Spoiler:
Yes I do. Noodles going to visit him is a final goodbye. I belive MAx takes Noodles girlfreind only to harm him, not because he loves her. After MAx tells him that he took his girl, he has nothing to live for although he has a lot of money. I also belive that Max thinks that his son is actually Noodles son so he has no life anymore but to harm Noodles, and seeing as Max and Noodles were great friends, commiting suicide in front of Noodles would ulitmatley harm him.
