Black Mass: Jimmy (Whitey) Bulgar (HBO Max)

[iamwhatiseem]

Better than I thought it was going to be. A lot of well known names in this movie for sure.
I put off watching it for some time, I couldn't get past the way they did Depp's eyes for the part.
That weird color... what else is it? After a minute or so I realized what it was. They oversized his iris.
Why? It make him look like a lizard.

Once you get past that screw up - it is a pretty good movie.
Worth watching.

He looks like the real Whitey Bolger. Good film. The guy was a monster.

Uh... no. Not the eyes.
There are not a lot of photos out there in color of him, and I have found none that are clear.
The man had bright blue eyes and apparently had Mydriasis, a condition of having enlarged pupils (not iris).
My daughter in law has that condition.
The movie enlarged his whole iris, which, like the photo above, makes him look like a lizard.
