I just watched it last night to prepare for the upcoming episode. I had never seen it before. When looking up some information on it, there were quite a few articles calling it Scorsese's secret greatest film or saying that it's especially relevant today.
I thought it was a fine movie, but nothing really grabbed me or stood out, except for Jerry Lewis' stone-faced hate when he sees Pupkin on TV. At least that's what I saw. Maybe I'm also supposed to see a begrudging admiration? I don't know, but it was great.
I like the movie but don't love it. Hopefully the next episode's discussion can help me appreciate it more. I want to love it like so many other people do.
