Martin Scorsese on Mean Streets, Raging Bull and The Irishman and More | Film Lecture 

Silence

Goodfellas.

Goodfellas

King of Comedy or Raging Bull. Masterpieces

After Hours

It's like two caterpillars mating.

more cinema in those eyebrows than all of the marvel movies combined

For real.

Lmao right?

Why don`t they give us the full thing? It annoys me so much. Especially the one with Fincher.

its agonizing lol

This sounds like the unedited lecture: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BV7h0DJ9yfo.html

echo this completely

Came here to say the exact same thing. Scorsese is the absolute master for me.

the editor was likely forced to cut it down to 40 minutes max, so he really had no choice but have jaring cuts in there

Oh yes. Every single movie I watch shows me how important editing is. I didn’t actually realize it up to some time ago, but it is really a tremendous tool, that when used correctly, can literally do anything.

When was this recorded?

Uncut?

what a time to be alive

I think he knows how highly thought of he is. But your right he is very humble

What about Bringing out the Dead?

Hey, you know what? That’s a film that keeps calling out to me. Going to watch that again real soon.

@@JoseChavez-rf4ul Oh I cannot wait to watch it.

@Vincent H. Exactly it is just his Gangster stuff. Which I would write is not his best (not to write they are bad or anything they are nigh perfect)!

GoodFellas was a blessing and a curse for Scorsese. A blessing because it was not only an ingenious work of art, but - more than any previous Scorsese film - it was VERY popular. So popular in fact that it was really only after GoodFellas that Scorsese was considered a “gangster film” director. Before it, his body of work was generalized as New York set films starring De Niro. Sure, Mean Streets concerned the mafia, but it’s not really *about* the mob the way GoodFellas is. Raging Bull has the mafia in the periphery, and Taxi Driver, King of Comedy, and Color of Money (to take a non-De Niro example) have nothing to do with the mob at all. GoodFellas has been a curse on the other hand because since it was released audiences have seemingly awaited its sequel, which explains why it seems so many Casino fans were disappointed by Irishman. It also explains why the films you mentioned are so underrated. After Hours especially has more to do with Scorsese’s aesthetic than Casino.

After Stanley Kubrick and Andrei Tarkovsky

Don't you have a notebook & pen?

Chris Serpicø there are masters who take the medium to another level and then there are the ones who tell stories

Fincher Braandhan Which one is Scorsese?

@@marshallzane7735 Fellini is master. Scorsese is very influenced by him. I love Scorsese though. U cannot not get influenced by Fellini... Even Salman Rushdie was influenced by him. I would call Tarkovsky, Bresson, Fellini, Bergman, Passolini,Kurosawa, Ozu as masters. Then the ones who were influenced by them. And there is nothing wrong in getting influenced. Nothing is created from Vaccum...

Fincher Braandhan I think that’s fair. I kind of think of Scorsese as The Rolling Stones of film. The Stones didn’t really invent their sound; they just did it better than anyone else. They made simple but great music. That’s how I think of Scorsese. His work isn’t supposed to be super philosophical or political - he just wants to make great cinema. But, like The Stones - his work is actually really diverse and often extremely intelligent. I think of filmmakers like Kubrick or Bergman or Fellini as The Beatles of film. They found a way to make art that was innovative, challenging, and philosophical-while still being brilliant, aesthetically. And although I’m a Beatles guy - I still recognize the greatness of The Stones.

@@CipherSerpico well said

Joachim Trier and Cristi Puiu

i reckon scott derrickson (director of doctor strange) would do ok. he’s nowhere near as passionate or as knowledgeable about the medium as scorsese (few are) but he’s no slouch either.

sam raimi and the director of logan are pretty good but russo brothers are mediocre with A budgets

very true - james mangold (who did logan and the wolverine) is a wonderful filmmaker in his own right, and sam raimi’s nothing short of a legend at this point.

@@bentic3745 True. Sam's Spiderman trilogy is like the Dark Knight trilogy of DC, and Mangold's Logan is probably my favourite of all Marvel's films. Although Logan is part of the franchise, it stands as it's own.

God, I hate being short. People always laugh at you for no reason

@@Jonmad17 ok shorty lol
