From the underage sex slave Iris in Taxi Driver to the mid to late 20s Jake LaMotta sniffing after the 15 year old Vikki in Raging Bull to the murderous, sadistic child rapist Max Cady in Cape Fear to Ginger McKenna, the prostitute wife of mobster Sam "Ace" Rothstein who had been pimped out since the age of 14 in Casino, there is an extremely disturbing, recurring theme of paedophilia in Scorsese's collaborations with DeChomo.
