The Big Shave- Martin Scorsese 1967
· The film commences with jazzy type orchestral music and shots of a shiny clinical bathroom.
· We see a man shaving and there is alot of close-ups, it eventually becomes sinister and dark and unexpected to see the man purposely cutting himself all over his face.
· Very representative of other Scorsese films he as directed such as The Departed, Raging Bull, Good Fellas etc.
· Could be considered as an allegory towards to Vietnam War and how war is silly and the general stupidity of it.
