"Kudos to these men for pushing on when they had already achieved wealth, fame and prestige. Yet the striving stiffs among us may feel De Niro provides a more relatable example. He's one of us now, a member of the happy-to-be-average club, with the body language of someone whose thoughts are perpetually on that next golf round or Game Of Thrones binge-watch. It's a reminder that life isn't always about overcoming impossible odds, pushing ourselves to the limits, looking for new Everests to conquer. We can toot along in the slow lane – humble but happy. That is an obvious lesson in many ways – but how strange that the star of Taxi Driver should be the one teaching it."

What we can learn from the decline of Robert De Niro - Telegraph

Di Nero may be worth $150 million. He doesn't need the money. I can understand needing the work. Doesn't he get offered any roles in good movies? I hope Meryl Streep stays choosey.
