The Bad
Robert De Niro is too old to play Frankie Machine
Robert De Niro is NOT too old to be Frankie Machine. If anything, he is the right age. Frankie Machine is supposed to be an old guy. In the book, Frankie has a daughter who is in her twenties.
De Niro may technically be about 70, but he looks like he’s only in his early 60s.
