No one has a career-path.. a career-trajectory like Harvey Keitel... from playing teh responsible older brother in Scorcese's "Mean Streets"... to playing a real firecracker of .. of.. - who the hell was he.. in Scorcese's "Taxi Driver".... to playing a compassionate detective who's done TERRIBLE things in "Bad Lieutenant".. and finally .. to playing Judas.. to playing a Judas who wept when Willem Defoe's Christ told him that God had assigned him the role of turning Jesus over to teh Roman police... saying.. Willem Defoe's Christ telling Harvey Keitel's Judas.. ".. you're the strong one of the two of us.. that's why he gave you the harder job...".. why a Harvey Keitel who inexplicably may have been allotted the role of butcher or some kind of serial-killer role.. as my father would put it.. that .. Harvey Keitel now needs to play the Soviet Union reputed.. Stalin's butcher.. "Lavrenthi Beria"... much like Daniel Day Lewis also played a butcher.. was he.. a real butcher.. in "Gangs of New York"... ?... Daniel Day Lewis he played a man named.. "Bill".. in Scorcese's "Gangs of New York".. sorry Uma.. real sorry...
