Reflecting On ‘The Irishman’ And The Banality Of Evil


HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA - OCTOBER 24: Robert De Niro attends the Premiere of Netflix's "The Irishman" ... [+] at TCL Chinese Theatre on October 24, 2019 in Hollywood, California. The protagonist of the film, Frank (Robert De Niro), struggles with a moral choice, whether or not to kill his close friend, Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino). If Frank were to refuse, than Russell would no longer view Frank as reliable, and in his profession, unreliable men tend to disappear. Russell orders assassinations not based on malice, or personal grudges, but through business calculations. That’s the banality of evil, and it’s a depressingly accurate depiction of the way the world operates.
