‘The Wolf of Wall Street' breaks F-word record



The Golden Globe-nominated film used the curse word a reported 506 times during its 180-minute run.

"The Wolf of Wall Street" has broken quite the "f---ing " record.
The Golden Globes is still over a week away, however, Martin Scorsese's latest R-rated film starring Leonardo DiCaprio has been recognized for the most F-bombs ever used in a single non-documentary motion picture.
According to a Variety report, the word "f--k" is said 506 times in 180 minutes beating out Spike Lee's 1999 "Summer of Sam," in which the profane word was dropped 435 times.
Scorsese’s "Casino" had 422 F-words and "Goodfellas" had a tally of 300.
"Wolf" pushed the boundaries in more ways than one as the cursing goes hand-in hand with the promiscuity and drug-induced behavior used in the film to portray the culture of Wall Street seen from the eyes of DiCaprio's character, Jordan Belfort.

Its on in my country I've seen it last week, Im a huge Dicaprio fan, but still undecided if i love/hate the film, will give it a second go here i suppose, fuck isn't that annoying in this movie, highly recommended for those who wants to see full frontal nudity, sex and drugs for three hours

Apart from Ben Kingsley's psychotic and jarring use of the C word in Sexy Beast I don't really consider language shocking in movies any more. Some movies make great use of swear words - Bad Santa for instance - but some movies rely on it way too much. It can be tedious to watch when you know it's been used as a device to add 'gritty realism' but the actors just don't seem comfortable or believable.

I find that the themes or messages in some movies are often more shocking than the language. Zero dark thirty for instance. Or Srpski film.

Django. Mostly because usage of that word really only took off after the civil war

language doesnt bother me. its what they do on screen. for instance, in American History X when he stamps on the guys jaw, that was pretty horrible.

Really looking forward to seeing this, the book is a great read. The language won't be a problem.

Agree with the above, Ben Kingsly in Sexy Beast has a couple of amazing lines and also 44 Inch Chest has some fantastic swearing. The award goes to Nil By Mouth for me though, brutal use of language in a very brutal movie.

The Wolf of Wall Street is a great movie, one of the best in the oscar nominations in my opinion. it's 3 hours in length but you leave feeling happy unlike 12 years which leaves you depressed at mans inhumanity to man. Gravity is another great movie and it'll be a close run thing between it and the Wolf for best film oscar.
