I really do enjoy Temptation but I have to admit that Keitel's accent takes me out of it often. I don't know it that's just me or a common complaint but there it is.
Age of Innocence for me, but I'm a big King of Comedy fan as well.

So American Hustle. Is fine. Funny at least. And everyone is super committed to it which elevates.
Don't put metal in the science oven.

It would be a superb choice for best cinematography.
The Hunt is a great movie. Very claustrophobic and dark in tone. I've seen movies like it multiple times, but Mikkelsen's performance and the overall tense atmosphere puts it over the top. No truly weak acting from anyone in the supporting cast and I thought the actress playing Klara was particularly great.
In the light of The Wolf of Wall Street, which was very entertaining and arguably Scorsese's funniest film, I've meant to check out the rest of Scorsese's filmography that I haven't seen yet. I started out with Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, which is basically the only Scorsese film that is completely told from a female perspective. It was refreshing to see Scorsese turning a script that could have easily been a corny melodrama into a grittier and more realistic effort, with an always reliable Ellen Burstyn turning in a memorable performance.
So, the ones that follow for me now are the much maligned New York, New York and Kundun. The interesting thing about Scorsese is that even his failures always have a fascinating component to them, so he's one of those directors whose filmography should be experienced in full. Any opinions about these two?
