Scorsese does that, and he's done it again. He needs a better editor who could shorten the runtime without losing the flow. Irishman was no Goodfellas but it was a decent story.

I think hypoxia is a shitty death regardless - whether drowning or just breathing N2 without O2. CO2 causes gasping, I'd have thought CO might be OK since it's quick but maybe it's politically unpopular because it evokes dad in the driveway with the engine running and a hose duct-taped into the cabin.
