Wow. I almost wish I hadn't seen the original, but Scorsese added some extra depth and character plot to the story. The cast did a great job and everyone should be rewarded come oscar time. See this right away.

A movie that is truely timeless. I can't believe this was shot in the early 30's. This was my first taste of Hawks and now I see why he's one of the most influencial directors. Some of the best cinematography ever captured. DePalma's remake borrows heavily from this classic.
