Scorsese is like everyone’s grandfather here. It’s so charming

the best part of this roundtable is steven galloway not interrupting the panel

Every single one of them looks like their films

We need one roundtable with horror directors like Robert Eggers, Ari Aster, James Wan and Jordan Peele.

I don’t understand how Scorsese and De Niro couldn’t get financing for a film. But stuff like Cats gets greenlit

I want someone to look at me the way Todd Phillips looks at Scorsese the whole time

Lulu Wang really ended up surprising me in this interview. During the discussion about streaming platforms, she challenged the popular opinion and stood up for what she felt, and explained her perspective so calmly and rationally that even Scorsese saw where she came from. As the discussion went on, I could see her earn the admiration of Marty and the others. She has got a stan in me lol.

Marty loves Lulu. You can tell. He totally knows her passion and her struggle and her intensity. He has lived it for 50 years.

Tarantino is under the table

Scorsese is so engaged and energetic for a man who's almost 80

I wish Greta nothing but success. She’s respectful and in awe of the directors at her table. She contributed to the conversations and you could just see she is absorbing all she can. Go Greta!

The irony that Lulu's name is not in the title after hearing what she said about the industry. I really hope she can get to keep making movies, Farewell was a great movie that me and my mom really enjoyed, even though is 75% in chinese is so relatable to us even though we are Colombian. I love how she is so faithful to her ideas and is bringing really important points to this table!

I love how Martin Scorsese closely listening to Lulu.

Goddam, that Lulu Wang is the real deal: smart as hell, cares about artistic integrity, eloquent. I hope she gets to make more films her way.

Martin Scorsese is all like “sit down, children, let me tell you the story of the good ol’ days how important it is to have dedicated friends act in your movies if you’re being underfunded”

Scorsese is so into every single argument. You can tell he lives and breaths filmmaking.

"I understand English but I don't feel English" the quote of the decade i can't agree more

Scorsese is so involved in the conversation, it's endearing

This maybe the most humble directors roundtable ever.

When Scorsese, Pacino, DiNero, and Pesci can’t get financing for their film, our American society of culture and art is doomed. That is just unbelievable.

Look at these nerds geek out about something they love. The most honest roundtable filmed.

One hour and five minutes ago I was like: "That's a long video, I'll just see a bit of it."

Plot twist: Tarantino is filming the roundtable, fanboy-ing over all of em.

the looks of admiration and little smiles Martin Scorsese is giving Lulu is adorable love to see it

wish bong joon-ho could've been on that table

Noah Baumbach seems like a Wes Anderson character lmao

Each time Scorsese mentioned King of Comedy I was having panic attacks for Todd Phillips.

i love the chaotic energy from greta. i can relate. too many thoughts, just one mouth.

"Making a film is like having a conversation with the child we were" damn what a line

Is it me or did the interviewer improve ? He doesn't interrupt anymore.

I love how Noah indulges Greta by saying what would Meryl say? Even though no one else seems to be interested when she went on that tangent before, so cute!

when he said I understand English but I don't feel English... Wow

could you imagine making the hangover 1-3 then making joker which leads you to sit at the same table as martin scorsese

Scorsese has this youth like energy and passion to him when he's talking about making films, I hope he gets to make all the movies he ever wants to.

43:36 Marty looks between them and just knows they're great for each other

Could not agree with Greta more in regards to knowing cinema when you see it. There are some “cinema” experiences I’ll never forget: the first time I saw “Taxi Driver” and “Scarface”, the tragic beauty of “The Dear Hunter” and “Sophie’s Choice”, the caustic, brutal, heart wrenching “Apocalypse Now”, the paranoia inducing, hypnotic sway of beauty that is “Rosemary’s Baby”, the brilliant, intense cultural warning and insanity of “A Clockwork Orange”, the first time Uma got that needle to the heart in the film that changed cinema forever, that perfect film “Pulp Fiction”, the soul stirring, tear inducing “Braveheart”, a film that hits me hard every single time I see it, the first time I saw a Lynchian wholly original and existential work of art, which is the only way I can describe anything by David Lynch, and the first time my jaw dropped at “Alien”, which left me with a psychosomatic rumble in my stomach, and every single time since the first time that I watched anything Hitchcock. And the most recent cinema experience I’ve had, which was the entrancing, heartbreaking, edge of my seat simmer to a boil that is “Parasite”. These films have stayed with me, and will never leave me. They are art. They are cinema. They are important. If for nothing more than they allow us to dream, and for more or less two odd hours, we can lay our troubles down, and lose ourselves in that dream .

Please add Lulu and Fernando’s names to the title. They deserve it.

Todd Philips looking at Martin Scorsese like he's a piece of steak.

scorsese's laugh is contagious lmao, love how he's almost 80 and still got that energy

i love so much the fact that Marty nods to every sentimental thing this contemporary filmmakers explain, about how they connect their childhood and inner kid to the films they make and stuff, he just gets it all. It doesn’t matter if they are making a film in the 70’s or in 2018, the love for films is the same and they all share that in the table. It’s just magnificent

Todd is basically fangirling professionally at Scorsese, I love that

Sometimes Martin Scorsese looks like a guy pretending to be Martin Scorsese

scorsese: i tried to [become a priest] but i was asked to leave greta: mE TOO! mood

At 44:50 Noah's talking about camera movements in Marriage Story and how it's about perspective, with Martin looking on, and then the camera does the focus change as it did in Marriage Story in the court scene, I loved it

The interaction between Lulu Wang and Martin Scorsese is priceless. The new promising talent and the seasoned master talking with so much respect for each other. I could watch this forever.

Greta Gerwig: *says she doesn't know then proceeds to give a perfect answer*

Fernando Meirelles and Scorcesse side by side, I felt honored just being able to watch this video, it was a trully an amazing experience, so proud of his work.

is it just me or at 54:35 you can hear todd whisper to greta "they just like to hear her talk...i'm getting annoyed with her..." and greta laugh and say "yeah"?

The moderator has made a real improvement in his interviewing ability, allowing more room for the conversation to breath & flow naturally. Good on 'em.

3:21 Martin Scorsese: Especially King of Comedy *Looks directly at Todd Philips*

Lulu and Marty were diving into something there at the end that needed it’s own video. Marty’s experience and wisdom really takes hold.

I love that Marty looks like a happy father in this entire video. He seems very proud of all these directors.

I'd pay for a roundtable just like this coming out every month.

I understand English but I don't feel English (that's gold right there for any international director).

At 19:29 when they all interrupted to admire Jonathan Price was pretty wholesome

Todd Phillips is so good at reading the room and breaking the ice and easing up awkward situations. just a great director

"The industry doesn't want my voice" - Lulu Wang that was so deep

Crazy Rich Asians pandered to the masses, while The Farewell is the real deal. Lulu Wang is a great director to watch out for.

That look on Greta's face when Noah's speaking like "that's my man"

Someone de-age Marty, he needs to keep on making movies.

Find someone who looks at you the way Todd Phillips looks at Scorsese

The great thing about gathering these incredible filmmakers around a table is that they say all the things they wouldn’t say in a one on one interview. They all have things in common, things they didn’t even know they had in common. Now they can bounce off each other and discuss the art of filmmaking rather than the business of filmmaking. They discuss philosophy rather than method. Great video!

And for those of you that don't know Fernando Meirelles,I urge you to watch his movie City of God,one of the greatest Brazilian movies of all time, fucking awesome movie

If tarantino was there, no one else would get a word in.

This interview made me a Lulu Wang fan. You can tell it did that for the other people at that table too.

the dynamic between martin and lulu warms my heart

you dont know how happy it makes me seeing female directors be as incredible and successful as great gerwig, a huge inspiration

I love that Marty, once he found out that Lulu likes the Theme Park film genre, clarified that he does not feel those films are lesser. What a sweetheart

"You and Greta are a couple" Noah: * surprised Pikachu face *

"If you got a gift, and you work, it's like a prayer. And when you go to work, it's praying." - When Scorsese said this, I teared up. Nothing I relate to more as a director. Also, as an Asian female director, it's so wonderful to see Lulu sitting at the same table with all the others.

its very ironic that in the video Lulu Wang talks about creating a brand so that people can find you and be known instead of a bigger budget for a movie and yet in this video title her name isnt there. i always wonder why these people do this? why dont they put the names of all 6 people in the title. i have see very long titles so i know they can fit all these names in there so why dont you do it?

I like how Lulu Wang and Scorsese seem to be kindred spirits... they both started out making small, personal movies about family and their culture.

i love how scorsese calls the movie a 'picture'

I loved Scorsese's view on finding your passion: "You cant try to make vocation or calling because you want to be like somebody- you have to find your own". That really is gonna stick with me.

Clearly directors roundtables are more interesting than actors roundtables..

Lulu Wang really stood out to me in this roundtable.... Quiet, receptive, absorbs what other people say and comes up with intelligent points.... An ideal roundtable participant.... Also, The Farewell was brilliant....

Marty keeps looking at Lulu like he's seeing a bit of him in her

I love Marty's "they've always been like that" at 9:50

I just finished watching Lulu Wang’s “The Farewell” and was so moved by the end I’m so happy she got this opportunity it was well earned!

Fernando Meirelles seems like such a sweet guy

Love Lulu interjecting saying she rejected the bigger offer because she didn’t want to get lost in the shuffle was a really interesting perspective that didn’t occur to me. Smart choice lulu! ETA: I laughed so hard when they talked about filming in other countries and just making an innocent comment and suddenly it happened. Speaks to the bureaucracy of the US and the red tape and rules. We need to chill out.

They’re all so receptive, polite & selflessly generous with one another. Wonderful.

Lulu Wang has a distinct intelligence and voice about her. She'll have a great future.

34:45 Lulu's answer towards the conflict generated by the director's toughness honestly blew my mind. The solution she proposed goes beyond the authority's power and tackles the problem to the core by saying "let me explain to you why this is important to me" rather than "I'm the director, do as I told you." She is incredibly smart.

A few things: - Absolutely fantastic conversation. Maybe my favorite roundtable so far. - You can tell everyone there is a huuuge Scorsese fan. It's almost like they're trying to contain their excitement about doing an interview with him. - Finding out Barry Jenkins is Lulu Wang's partner was a great surprise. Can we get a Noah-Greta-Lulu-Barry roundtable? - The different backgrounds of these directors makes this conversation incredibly interesting. Fernando being a foreign director, Scorsese an icon, Lulu an incredible newcomer and so on, their perspectives are wonderful to listen to. So much talent around that table. Excited for whatever they do next.

It’s crazy… I’m currently sitting in the production office working as a PA on Martin’s new film. I’ve never wanted anything other than to be a film director. Hearing him and all of them speak is so amazing. I was born to be a director and all of what they say makes so much sense to me and I clearly understand every facet of what they say. They all feel so far away and I want to be just like them. It’s my purpose/dream to be sitting at that round table one day… inspiring others.

Damn, Stephen Galloway has really become a great host. Letting everyone talk and just encouraging them along is so much better than the host he once was. Kudos sir.

Todd Phillips has big "notice me senpai" energy

36:45 Martin Scorcese casually explaining his cinematic genius. "That's how I imagine it"

3:31 I love that Fernando's name pop-up matches his hand movement xD

You can tell Noah is a writer's writer with all his quick wits.

My favorite part of the conversation was how everyone got really excited when they were talking about the editing process. It's really wholesome to see how invested they are in their work.

I love the fact that we, Brazilians, are everywhere and that we're actually owning it, not just being there by coincidence.

This could go on for hours and I would never get bored. It's refreshing how they genuinely listen to what each have to say and I just feel like they are somewhat learning from one another.

I have always been sooo fascinated by how Greta tries to explain her thoughts, it’s like her brain is just thinking fast and about so many things that she can’t keep up, or idk how to explain it. But I love it.

20:11 "To what extent is art autobiographical? Noah." Noah: nervous laughter Cut to Greta Gerwig: smile disappears, slightly shakes head no

Scorcese is one of the few people in the world that could make me shut my mouth for 30 minutes just to hear him talk about movies.

This video blew my mind. At a certain momment I discover that Fernando Meirelles was the director of Two Popes. I'm brazilian and didn't know that, even watching the movie. At many things brazilians underestimate its capabilities. It's such a proud to see something like that.

You can tell that Todd Phillips is completely enthralled by Martin Scorsese after all Joker is such a love letter to Taxi Driver and King of Comedy.

Did anyone notice the look that Gerwig gave to Baumbach when he was asked about his movies being autobiographical? It was hilarious.
