Guys Night Out

Martin Scorsese's The Departed had its premiere last night in New York City.

Steven Zeitchik in today's Variety reports on the event:

My guess is that the parties involved just wanted to make the official premiere of the movie all the more "event-worthy". I don't think they were hiding it from anyone...Or are worried that the film isn't any good.
