Brief Synopsis:
The Massachusetts State Police has assigned undercover cop Billy Costigan to infiltrate the mob syndicate run by gangland chief Frank Costello. While Billy gains Costello’s confidence, Staff Sargaent Colin Sullivan has to find a mole that Costello has placed in the police department.

Intention:
After L.A. Confidential and Payback I had to find a third neo-noir movie to edit. I decided to make a FanMix of The Departed, an alternate version that moves the reveal of Costello’s mole from the first scene to the middle of the movie.

Cuts and Additions:

Simple Cut List:

-Deleted all the set-up of Costello’s mole at the beginning.
-Cut all scenes of the mole contacting Costello until mid-way.
-The mole is revealed in the movie theater halfway through.
-Several trims here and there.
-Deleted the Madolyn is pregnant subplot. There’s no way that stick figure is into her second trimester at the end of the movie. And I never really liked it anyway.

Detailed Cut List:

-Added fanedit.org logo at start
-Deleted Costello scenes from the beginning.
-Cut scene of Costello and the mole meeting after graduation.
-Cut shot of Sullivan sipping coffee right after opening title.
-Cut scenes of Sullivan calling his father.
-Cut out Sullivan telling his team about the possibility of a mole. Now we first learn of a mole through Queenan and Dignam’s scene under the bridge.
-Cut Costello and the priests.
-During the attempted bust on Costello at the warehouse I cut a lot of short shots.
-Cut “No tickey, no laundry”
-Cut the scene of Costigan calling Dignam after the failed bust.
-Cut the scene of Costigan and Madolyn at the cafe. (It’s a good scene, but doing this makes her affair with Costigan more of a heat of the moment thing.)
-Cut Sullivan’s phone call from his boss with the cancer throat.
-Small trim to the Costigan and Madolyn sexual tension in the kitchen scene.
-Cut Costigan asking Queenan “Are you sure you weren’t followed?”
-Cut Madolyn being pregnant. “They say that right there is the penis” means she’s in her second trimester. Look at her, there’s barely any meat, let alone a baby.
-Cut out that fucking rat in the finale. Fuck that rat.
-New end credit music.
