  • The typical Martin Scorsese Movie:

    1. Somebody has to get killed or get there ass kicked.

    2. There's gotta be at least one scene in a bar.

    3. At least one Rolling Stones song has to be in the soundtrack

    4. An italian actor has to be the lead.

    5. And most importantly, someone has to say the word "fuck" or "shit" every 4 minutes.

  • John ford is a master, so is scorsese

  • casino is one of his best films

  • I love Duel in the Sun so much too! Fuck I want to hang out with Scorsese man!

  • I think Departed was an awesome movie but the worst of Scorsese

    Taxi Driver,Raging Bull,Gangs of Newyork .Goodfellas all of em was better than departed.They gave him the Oscar for departed like an honorary award I think

    The others deserved it much more...

  • @95superbad

    Yep

  • @95superbad Sorry, not at all. It was a great movie. Indeed not his best, but a great movie. He won oscars because the movie deserved it. Which ''others'' were better than The Departed?

  • @95superbad i think departed is much,much better then for example shutter island..departed is very entertaining film from beginning to the end.

  • If Martin Scorsese considers a movie as one of his favorites, it's automatically a great movie! =)))

  • An amazing director, a brilliant man.

  • I feel a kind shiver when a see any snece of The Searchers mainly the overture snece.

  • you know he's a real auteur because he admits to watching that Tales of Hoffman

  • The man is a deadbeat degenerate. Who cares about anything else?

  • Martin Scorcese has many favorite MILFs. (Movies Id like to Film)

  • @thevealchop68 GREAT comment. :D

  • Who knew cinemax would show something other than soft-core porn.

  • Man, I love to listen him talking.

  • @Cleon29Warrior Yea listening to him slow down and then suddenly speed up makes you wonder if he's been sniffing or smoking his cocaine.

  • 8mins 55second , my heart opens , sometime inside agreeds a rise to laughter, when martin scorcess, revels how c was a. all i can say is , how now brown cow.

  • His favoritte film is Terrence Malicks 1998 war film The Thin Red Line

  • @Snako85 That was his SECOND favourite film from the 90's, so no, I kind of doubt that.

  • @RonAlmeida

    Well said

  • Comment removed

  • his reaction to duel in teh sun reminds me of my reaction to Fantasia when I saw it in the theatres very young.

  • Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, The Aviator, The Departed & Shutter Island are my favorites, I have seen Casino & Goodfellas way too much as a kid, me and my dad watched those movies at night when my mom went to bed :) ... those are great films as well though.

  • @ledlunar Wow, i did the same thing with my old man,  i still do it, me and my old man, sit down and talk about mr scorsese, and all his films and watch goodfellas, and cape fear over and over again. My grandmother, actually grew up with Mr. Scorsese, infact me and my grandmother were talking about it the other day, she used to date Mr. Scorsese's Brother, for a short time tough, thank you marty for all the laughs and triumphs that me and my old man shared. God Bless

  • Marty Scorsese is arguably one of the greatest filmmakers in America today. But the thing about him is simple - he doesn't make films... he makes art!

  • hes coked up

  • Watch and learn as Scorsese discusses films that influenced him & growing up

  • Hmmn... Scorsese wanted to be a Priest.  So did Jack White. Interesting.

  • I can't lie, I saw Eat of Eden and On The Waterfront and I didn't like either of them. Great performances, but for me, bad movies. Citizen Kane, on the other hand, I immediately recognized what people saw in that film. I just got so annoyed with the other two movies I can't even tell you. Maybe if I had watched them earlier.

  • Hopefully he will make a movie about the ancient times before he retires, a very interesting subject not explored lately.

  • De Niro hasn't done a good movie in a while now. I actually thought "What Just Happened" was pretty decent though, aside from that though... the last great movies he made were 'Men of Honor' and 'The Score', both of which got mixed reviews but I think are classics.

  • I don't think that an Oscar means anything for Scorsese. I think that his films are for the most part all Classics even The Departed and Shutter Island. Martin Scorsese is the best of my generation. I will really miss him when he stops making films.

  • 1970s pacino and 1990s scorcese......that would be magic.

  • youtube has so many kickass videos. I can spend the rest of my life not managing to watch 25% of them.

  • idk why people complain about the dicaprio-scorsese duo becasue they want the deniro-scorsese pairing back. seriously both are literally the greatest director actor combos ever. the russel crowe and ridely cott match up and oh! the tim burton johnny depp match up will never compare to what scorsese had with deniro and has with dicaprio right now.

  • Cape Fear = most under rated masterpiece of all time!

  • peck looks like anthony quin

  • even his movies that he made as a kid look better than half of this heartless commercial shite that most of the studios are banging out these days.

  • Oddly enough, those storyboards he did as a kid are better drawn than his Taxi Driver storyboards.

  • wow. this is like something theyd show you in film school

  • Scorsese is God!

  • Marty going to a baned movie reminds me of something Denis Leary once said. When Leary was a kid his Catholic Church would pin a list of "sinful material" onto a church door every month. This included books, albums, and films. So what did he and his buds do? They would steal the list and listen and watch everything on it every month. I guess if you want success all you have to do is the exact opposite of what the Church tells you to do.

  • love to see scorsese do a movie wiv al pacino

  • Is this sped up? he talks really fast.

  • DUEL IN HTE SUN AND THE SEARCHERS ARE AMAZING MOUVIES!

  • .33 seconds of the BLEU DE CHANEL commercial or short film as they call it, Eyes wide shut reference ? Also noticed maybe bertolucci reference with the guy following the girl around taking pics. comments anyone ???

  • What am I missing with The Searchers? There's little to like and a lot to dislike,,,

  • Christ, ALL of those movies suck

  • @BillyBob1041 I know right? Where's Transformers 2!?

  • Comment removed

  • @BillyBob1041 I'll admit it's not as good as the first one, but what about Pearl Harbor? A classic!

  • @CoolerKing37 Pearl Harbor is not a classic, anything ben affleck related is not a fucking classic by any stretch of the imagination

  • @BARNEYRAPEDME69 You, my good sir, are obviously not familiar with classic 2003 film Gigli.

  • @CoolerKing37 Lol ya i am actually, He made a TERRIBLE mobster hahaha

  • @BARNEYRAPEDME69 Good Will Hunting. Classic.

  • @insertclevername14 Ya very true, That is actually one of my favorite movies, I classify that as a Matt Damon and Robin Williams film, even though Ben Affleck did Ok i guess

  • @BARNEYRAPEDME69 Nope it's a Matt Damon and Ben Affleck film seeing as the co-wrote it. Movies do go deeper than the acting ya know.

  • @gtron30 Noyou didnt understand me, I said I classified it as a matt damon and robin williams film because i liked there acting more. I know both of them wrote it

  • who cares what kind of genre of movie he makes. no matter what type it is, he always makes them so amazing with his style and technique. that to me is why he is a genius in filmmaking. he also lets the dialogue carry the scene more imo.

  • Goodfellas, Raging Bull <3

  • Favorite director of all time!!!

  • Say whatever you want about Scorsese the filmmaker, as a critic, he's a marvel.

  • I love this man.

  • he rocks.

  • I'm an independent film-maker too.

  • youtube rocks!

  • People should strive to be true to themselves, like him.

  • stay true to your own path and vision.

  • GODLIKE 

  • I'm apparently bizarre for liking more obscure, or genre oriented work, from Scorsese. Mainly I like the films he did with Paul Schrader as a screen writer, as well as The Aviator for it's classic Hollywood scope and scale, and Shutter Island. Guess I'm not a fan of gangster film. Don't hate me.

  • I like Scorsese but de niro always plays the same characters and his roles are predictable IMO

  • @marceloyanez111pt2 Not really. There are huge differences between Travis Bickle and Jake LaMotta or Rupert Pupkin and Max Cady. Although I will say that in the last decade DeNiro has really been phoning it in with some very mediocre flicks.

  • Watch this video. You won't regret it: /watch?v=oiV_IuQtKc8

  • If he can get DiCaprio out of his system, he might make a great movie again.

  • i disagree actually dicaprio and scorsese work well togetter

  • @UnpunishedMovie absolutely...

  • no one seems to have the answer, want to convert HD from my t1i canon camera into a dvd

  • The Age of Innocence is perhaps his most underrated and quite close to his best.

  • De Niro, what an actor.

  • 0:45 - 0:52 -- so right. That's the key to being a good director. Viewers should be able to lose themselves in a movie and really BE in the movie

  • 1.goodfellas

    2.casino

    3.taxi driver

  • my regret is that he didn't do a movie with pacino in the seventies or early eighties ... that would have been great for sure

  • a true film master

  • Taxi Driver , Mean streets. <3333

  • One of my regrets concerning Marty Scorcese is that he hasn't made a film with Jack Nicholson earlier in their careers, it's weird to say some like that, I know MS was more NY and Jack was more LA for sure and now we've got "the departed" so why am I complaining? but I would've loved to have an early 80's movie with Jack, in a Joe Pesci type of role why not with de niro, and directed by scorcese... that would've been HUGE..

  • @AgentJK7 well atleast when he finally made a movie with Jack, he didn't waste him. he knows how to use his actors.

    if De Niro was able to squeeze out of his schedule an extended cameo in the Departed(Martin Sheens role), the scene where they confronts each other, they woudn't even need Walhberg for that scene.

    a scene like that will rival the Pacino/De Niro scene in Heat

  • @AgentJK7 yeah a seperate movie perhaps. but ll the movies he made were perfectly cast. joe pesci IS tommy de vito and joey la motta

  • @AgentJK7 I always wished that Scorcese had Directed The Two Jakes with Nicholson and DeNiro as the other Jake. That would have been awesome.

  • @CTM1978 epic idea

  • @PennyLane298, Scorcese Directing in 85 instead of doing After Hours, Nicholson, DeNiro, Jodie Foster as Kitty and Orson Wells instead of Richard Farnsworth.

  • @AgentJK7 Yeah, it'd have to have been a CIA movie back then. Of course, back then they might have gotten asked about another Nicholson director, Roman Polanski. That kind of combo would have been *horrifying* to Reganomics. If Chinatown was bad, what would Scorsese have gotten people to consider? The Departed. Haha!

  • @AgentJK7 Yea thats a good thought. i wonder why scorcese didnt ever think of jack in his earlier days... could be jack didnt have any italian in him that made a tight knit between scorcese, deniro and pesci...

  • @AgentJK7 couldn't agree more

  • @AgentJK7 dont fuck with the mans art

  • @AgentJK7

    Oh, for sure, I have those kind of fantasies all the time. Why did we have to wait for Heat to see Pacino and De Niro on the same stage? It's depressing, sure, but life goes on.  Shit, the man's given us "Taxi Driver," on top of countless other great pictures. Nicholson or not he's a legend, but I wholeheartedly agree.

  • 1. Taxi Driver

    2. Raging Bull

    3. Goodfellas

  • @TRIcrew dude what about, Casino, and Goodfellas, two of the movies you mentioned were best picture nominees, one of them won. He is brilliant, raging bull, goodfellas, casino, taxi driver, gangs of new york, aviator. Best movies.

  • @TRIcrew What you say makes sense... But goodfellas and Casino are also famous for carrying a 2-3 hour story, with absolutely no plot what so ever. And you are right about DeNiros characters, but pachino is NOT over rated. Just not recognized.

  • ok. peace.

  • Well considering that Goodfellas was based on an actual true life thing then yeah. Joe Pesci was fucking great and if you don't think Deniro is amazing in Raging Bull then your definition of what acting is should be redefined.

    Jimmy Stewart himself said that he always felt he was playing himself. Are you going to say Jimmy Stewart was never an actor?

  • I think Jimmy Stewart was great.

  • wow, that play-rape love scene is the first thing that ever turned me on. I clearly remember it; I was about 11. This is the first time I've seen the scene since!

  • Probably Raging Bull is my all time favorite Scorsese film followed by Mean Streets, Goodfellas,

    The Last Waltz, Gangs Of New York,

    I really haven't seen a 'bad' Scorsese film IMHO,

    even some offbeat ones like

    Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore offer far more than you can get from the mainstream Hollywood machine most of the time.

  • Definitely the best living director and will go down in the debate for the greatest of all time.

  • Even if the film has fkaws I can always find something in a Scorsese film that will have me saying what a genius he is. I think Taxi Driver is his most complete film. Kundun for some reason isn't as well liked but I really enjoyed it. Gangs of New York is brilliant with a few let downs in the dialogue between Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio, Day-Lewis rules the film. The Aviator has a few let down moments but is really good overall. The Departed is gold, though the pacing is a little off.

  • I hate people who comment nonsense. For everything has its time and place. If you deign to post a comment that is on the master Scorsese. Let the bullshit somewhere else, or another director who deserves it. Scorsese deserves only praise and our respect.

  • Scorsese is a very intelligent and sexy man!

  • The girl was a huge whore and he didn't know her age at the time.

  • why dont you just fucking boycott this video. 6 thumbs down means SHUT THE FUCK UP

  • hello

  • My Voyage to Italy, Martin Scorsese, wonderful history and study.

  • 1)mean streets 2)goodfellas 3)taxi driver 4)raging bull 5)casino 6)the king of comedy 7)the departed 8)cape fear 9)casino 10)gangs of new york 11)the aviator i havent seen anything else of his works btw all this movies i listed above are fucking awsome .
  • dude i think that in some instances scorsese is severely overrated, like for instance cape fear, casino (which is an attempt at replicating the success and format of goodfellas), the aviator (leo di caprio sucked, always sucks, regardless of the director involved), and gangs of new york are bad and overrated movies, with blatant cliches strewn all about. however, all the other ones on the list are, quite naturally, epic.

  • you should also see age of innocence, its one of the best of his work

  • What you seem to forget is how much of an effect a director has on an actor's performance.

    It's not just chance that actors give some of their best performances in his movies.

    For example Nicolas Cage. He was amazing in Bringing out the Dead. But overall... he's really not that great of an actor.. personally I think he's really bad... but still in Bringing out the Dead he was great.

  • want to lick my nutsack?

  • I think Cage is a actually a very skilled actor who's just as comfortable with the mainstream as he is with left field productions.

  • I think he is a skilled actor. But I find that people over praise his skills.

    He has been in some really good movies and performed well, but I think he's been in an equal amount of horrible movies.

    While others... say Daniel Day Lewis... are just amazing actors and perform their hearts out every time.

  • Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans is proof positive of your left field theory.

  • ya im a big fan to but i havent seen half of those. is cape fear and aviator good?

  • i might be biased here cuz Scorsese is my favorite director, but The Aviator is a great film. I don't know about Cape Fear since I havent seen it yet.

  • Go see Cape Fear for sure. I'd say it's one of his most underrated films. Amazing work. Its' what got me started on him and De Niro.

  • Already did haha....just as i thought, it was great. some of the best acting i've seen de niro do

  • Yes! Agreed, I actually think that's his best role. It's one of his more underrated roles, but I think he put so much into it. The voice, the mannerisms, the physicality, the intense studying and research into serial murderers and rapists and the Bible, etc. Mr. De Niro really created a truly living, breathing character here the same way Anthony Hopkins did with Hannibal Lector (De Niro was up against Hopkins the same) or Day Lewis did in There Will Be Blood or Heath Ledger did with the Joker.

  • If we were in a Scorsese flick right now, I'd excuse your vulgar language and name-calling. But since we're not on Scrosese's mean streets and are rather engaging in a civilized discussion online, I'd prefer you use more etiquette please. Okay? If that's cool with you, then I'd love to have an actual discussion and debate on this. If not, then that's okay too. Just let me know please.

  • @UnicornHead

    Hahahahahaha

  • @LuthorRequiem

    that's a shame that you started with cape fear kid.

  • No, not really a shame at all. Actually it was the perfect Scorsese film for me to start with because it combined so many things I love: psychological thriller, spiritual/moral ambiguity, character drama, outright horror, amazing acting, a terrifying yet nuanced villain, a score directly remade from the original, beautiful matte paintings, crazy set pieces, and all with a philosophical side that heightened it above the genre standard. To me it was the best way to start with my favorite director

  • @LuthorRequiem Huh?! The Original "Cape Fear" absolutely blows the remake away. Nobody does it better than Mitchum.

  • @UnpunishedMovie Oh, don't get me wrong: I love, love, love the original! I rewatch it frequently & think Mitchum is amazing & so is Peck. There's just something about Scorsese's version though that I keep coming back to more. De Niro's Max Cady is even more fascinating to me than Mitchum's (even though I loved Mitchum's & he was creepy as hell & fantastic); Juliette Lewis as Danielle is so realistic; also, the style of it & the complex themes. But like I said, loved the original too!

  • ....You're joking are you?

  • You better be joking.

  • Why all the thumbs down, this is clearly sarcasim. lol *up

  • He doesnt really use special effects much does he? I LOVE that about his work

  • All i can say is man I love Martin Scorsese. His films are so influential, and I don't think we will give him the credit he deserves until he dies. In my opinion, Scorsese is in the category of Hitchcock, Kubrick, Capra. He has changed the way I see life. He has made me think. He has inspired me. I am in love with his films, and he will be my favorite director. Scorsese you are my hero.
