And he even has more amazing films like cape fear, casino, etc. What an absolute treasure, a master storyteller filmmaker.

This goodfella took all his heart, a great deal of his culture and kept expressing tributes because of his love for Cinema by bringing characters immortal on-screen and commanding thespians under his articulate direction. He is a perfect student of art, a great listener, fine observer amongst the greats and at the same time, crafting historical cinematic moments by simply letting his frame and actors be. He just doesn't know how great he is, simply a kid who love what he does even at 80!

He's quite literally the master. I measure every director to him, and every movie to his. It's actually unreal that a human person just like you or me could make movies at his level. Not everything was 10/10, but the ones that were, really were.

Icon, genius and legend, just pure inspiration for making art in any way. I also love the fact Martin Scorsese loves and supports polish cinema, especially 50-80s polish movies. The Legend.

So glad ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ is included. I’m counting down the days to Oct. 20 when it’s released! Scorsese deserves a part 2. I’d like to hear about ‘The Aviator’ and ‘Casino.’

De Niro, Scorsese's frequent collaborator, was the actor that Dicaprio's dad told him when they watched him at the cinema "See that guy up on the screen? Now that is a great actor". Soon after, De Niro gave Dicaprio his big break in This Boy's Life, recommended him to Scorsese and got him cast in Gangs Of New York, then Dicaprio became Scorsese's new frequent collaborator and will star alongside De Niro in Scorsese's Killers Of The Flower Moon. The irony in those events!
