One of the MOST captivating cop dramas I've EVER seen! It's got to be my all-time FAVORITE!

Yes, we may LOVE LOVE LOVE The Departed, but we sure HATE HATE HATE what happens to our favorite character!!!

If you've NOT yet seen this amazing cop crime drama, RUN to your local Blockbuster and rent it!  Or, better yet -- buy it so that you can watch it over and over to catch those scenes that bear repeating.  Did you know, The Departed won 4 Oscars along with another 49 wins and 49 nominations?  It's going to take one heck of a movie to beat this one out for a fantastic array of characters and plot as my all-time pick for best cop-crime-drama!

Billy Costigan: [to Frank Costello] You accuse me once, I put up with it. You accuse me twice... I quit. You pressure me to fear for my life and I will put a f***ing bullet in your head as if you were anybody else. Okay?

Dignam: Exactly. You're nobody. You signed the papers, remember? Now we're the only two people on the face of this earth that even know you're a cop. How about we just erase your file, huh?

The scoop on The Departed 

The Departed is a American crime drama film remake of the 2002 Hong Kong film Infernal Affairs. The Departed was directed by Martin Scorsese, written by William Monahan and stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Martin Sheen, Alec Baldwin, Ray Winstone, Vera Farmiga and Mark Wahlberg. The film won four Academy Awards at the 79th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and a Best Director win for Scorsese.

This film takes place in Boston, Massachusetts, where notorious Irish Mob boss Francis "Frank" Costello (Nicholson) plants Colin Sullivan (Damon) as an informant within the Massachusetts State Police. Simultaneously, the police assign undercover cop Billy Costigan, Jr. (DiCaprio) to infiltrate Costello's crew. When both sides of the law realize the situation, each man attempts to discover the other's true identity before being found out.

Are you a FAN like me? What did you love about this movie? Hate?

My actual favorite character, believe it or not, was the Ray Winstone
character! "The Departed" was a straight ahead, gritty crime action
flick much like "LA Confidential" (in my mind at least).
