At the Palm Springs International Film Festival, the director of The Irishman praised Netflix for giving him the resources to make the emotional gangster epic, but then he said companies like that could be harming moviegoers by force-feeding them too much of what they’ve already seen. Oh, the irony in that... he is not self-conscious about The Irishman. Also he's right of course and it's exactly the reason why Netflix picked up The Irishman.
