Tagline: Time changes nothing.
Synopsis: A straightforward edit that does no more than cut up The Irishman at key places, transforming it into a 4-part miniseries.
Intention: There's no denying that The Irishman is a long film. While I'm of the opinion that watching it all in one sitting is the ideal viewing experience, it's easy to recognize that not everyone has the time, or attention span, to do that. Cutting The Irishman into a well-timed, four-part miniseries, however, allows for the film to be enjoyed in perhaps the second most optimal method. My edit, I Heard You Paint Houses, aims to do just that.
Changelog (spoilers):
Special Thanks: @Dunerfors on Twitter, who formalized the concept last year, and provided timestamps for an 'impromptu cut'.
Please PM me if you'd like a link. And, since The Irishman is only available on the 'boutique' Criterion, please attach any proof of purchase/ownership to ensure OTS rules are enforced.
