Shout out to the living legend of editing: Thelma Schoonmaker. She is one the best (if not the best) editor in Hollywood. Scorsese is the luckiest director, she’s been the editor of all his films since Raging Bull. Respect to the Queen.
Gary Leask ☝️👏☝️
I wouldn't say Scorsese is lucky to have her, because she herself admitted she learnt almost everything about editing from Scorsese. They gel with each other, and are comfy collaborating together. Then again, she does the actual work and is one of the humblest people I've ever seen.
your worst nightmare movies are made in the editing room. A great editor can do anything
Basically Scorsese abused her a took all of the credit. You think we'd even know his name if it wasn't for patriarchy?
@@LLlap you're kidding right? Please be kidding
It's a Scorsese film if there's De Niro, or DiCaprio.
Lol exactly what I was thinking
Clorox Bleach several about 5 to 7
6*
Can't really say because by that, every film they are in is a Scorsese film
Killers of the flower Moon is a Scorsese film because it has deniro and decaprio
You know it’s a Martin Scorsese movie if
It’s already one of the best films ever in the first half hour.
Indeed, every Scorsese production is impressive from the opening minutes alone!🙌😊
AMEN
You know it's a scorsese film if its rewatch value is infinite. I cant tell you how many times I've watched goodfellas, casino, raging bull, the depAhTed, wolf of wallstreettaxi driver, mean streets, all amazing.
@@Hardcore_Drug_Abuse95 true dat lol those never get old
@@Hardcore_Drug_Abuse95 accurate af 😂
You know it’s a Scorsese movie if it has Robert DeNiro saying “whats the matter with you?”
You know its a Scorsese movie when Joe Pesci says something anti-semitic.
Taha Kamran anti Semitic how? I mean what’s anti Semitic about it
What did he say in the Irishman?
@@mohamedashian604 "ya know just how ya call out those Jews"
@@mohamedashian604watch casino and come back lol
It’s not a Michael Bay film without CGI, explosions, a scantily clothed female, and more explosions.
and patriotism military fetishism along with some heavy orange blue filters
And strong use of high contrast lighting, saturated colour, ultra-fast editing, ultra fast camera moves, low camera angles, expressionistic sound, luxury consumer products, clumsy and incompetent ethnic and female stereotypes, women as objects rather than people, fetishisation of the military but distrust of government, everyone angry all the time, characters commenting on exactly what’s being depicted, helicopters at sunset, mixed camera media, and long long runtimes.
Also cars. Lots of roaring cars
How can yall miss unnecessary sun flares???
A sweaty dude and a black guy as comic relief
now i'm just overwhelmed with the number of films i haven't seen yet and the amount of stuff i don't know
It never ends jodie
Still better than nothing
Then you realize, amazing animes exist
@@canti7951 You can be overwhelmed by the amount of good anime alone lmao
Every Scorcese movie is an art. It takes a little time to understand but when you understand it , it feels like you found treasure.
I love films like that too. Even though films like Marvel are more beloved because it's for a more broader audience, I prefer films more complexities like deeper story and subtext.
I've lost interest in blockbusters.
That’s how I felt about the Irishman. After first viewing I’m like this is a good movie I like it but after second viewing I was like omg this is one of the greatest movies of all time
All movies are art.
@Nic Rock In it's way, yes.
While I was watching the Irishman, I was sooo bored. But after waking up the next morning, all I could think about were the subtleties of the filming!
Scorsese, De Niro, Pacino, Pesci and Schoonmaker are all walks into a bar
and then the Scottish guy says "I'll have a beer"
And then someone dies......brutally
And then they kick Michael Bay out
And a Masterpiece is born
And then somebody gets way too offended by someone calling them a "jerk-off."
I just realized Scorsese is playing the creep that stares at Betsy
me too!
why creep??
@@maramiranello well assumuming that he is the same character in both scenes, then he's clearly a creeper
My theory is that Betsy is his wife.
This video was awesome but his cameo in Taxi Driver wasn't his initial decision. The actor that was supposed to play the deranged passenger didn't show up the day they filmed this so Scorsese decided he was going to play the role.
Martin Scorcese is basically Steven Spielberg's darker twin brother when it comes to storytelling and filmmaking
New York Italian Catholic vs Southern California suburban Jewish. As a Northern California suburban-raised Jewish guy I recognize Spielberg's perspective as basically my mom's. I find Scorcese more interesting maybe because it's so different from what I recognize, or maybe because what I recognize is just inherently more boring.
What a silly thing to say.
They're not even in the same league.
Ironically, Steven Spielberg was supposed to direct Cape Fear and Scorsese was supposed to direct Schindler's List but both switched movies because Scorsese felt only a Jewish filmmaker can make Schindler's List and that ended up being Spielberg with Scorsese go on to make Cape Fear
nah, I would consider Schindlers list and Saving private Ryan to be more mature than anything Scorcese has popped out
You know it's a Martin Scorsese movie when half the tough guys are kinda old and look like New Jersey port authority officials.
Hey girls! Since Anna Karina has passed away, can you do a video on how the French New Wave changed the course of cinema forever? I know that there are countless videos explaining it but I always wanted to see your take on it.
It's not a Scorsese film without Joe Pesci, Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio or Harvey Keitel in the cast!😉🔫🔪
None of them is in Age of Innocence
None of them are in The Age of Innocence, Bringing Out The Dead, Silence, Kundun, Boxcar Bertha, After Hours & The Color of Money.
@@notmytruthTHEtruth the fact that you had to dig that deep into his filmography to contest this obvious fact is a statement all in itself. His cast selection is completely redundant, and not a single movie you listed is EVER mentioned among his better movies.
@ that's 7 movies without 4 different actors in a 25 film legacy. Relax. All the movies I listed are dope too except for Boxcar Bertha tho.
Actually that's not true. I've seen Silence and The Color of Money counted among his best, and I've seen Bringing Out the Dead consistently named for individual parts of the filmmaking.
Silence is actually in my top two Scorcese films, which are both obviously in my all-time favorites
When you hear gimme shelter you know it's a Martin Scorsese movie
@non so che nome mettere non so che nome mettere it's almost in every movie lol
Or Any Stones Tune!!!
Certain blues standards show up in some of them to. Goodfellas, casino, wolf of wallstreet, even the Irishman.
69th like
After the Irishman Scorsese is the greatest director of all time by far the most consistent director ever 5 decades of brilliance
The Raging Casino Wolf Taxi Driver Goodfellas Man. Now that’d be a film.
The similarities in the title sequences of Casino and Vertigo are also because they were designed by the same man: Saul Bass
You know it's Scorsese when you enjoy the movie so much!
Pride - Silence
Wrath - Taxi Driver
Envy - King of Comedy
Sloth - Raging Bull
Lust - After Hours,
Vanity - Cape Fear,
Greed - the Wolf of Wall Street
Wait isn't wrath more of raging bull?
Greed- also Casino.
Corruption - The Irishman
switch taxi driver and raging bull
I love this series! Could you please do a "You know it Alfred Hitchcock if" video? 🖤 I would love to see your take since you talked about Alfred Hitchcock's blondes in past videos.
Yes, that would be fantastic, as well as covering his cameo appearances in his own works, and his underlying themes!😃
Oh yeah! That's an excellent point!
good suits
One of my favourite videos to date. This really taps into Scorsese’s philosophy as a cinematic presence. This will definitely influence my film course, thank you @TheTake
Scorsese did make a film about a woman. It was a very long time ago but it exists. It is called: "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974)". Also why is he not allowed to make male-centric films? It also needs to be explored.
Don't forget Boxcar Bertha.
@@Senate300 I avoided that because it is considered really @#$%!
I don't know about Scorsese personally, but I personally never write from the perspective of a woman because I'm a guy. I don't feel like I could do it right. That could be a reason why he's almost never done it?
But it doesn't matter because no one else comes close to the way he portrays and explores masculinity in all of its aspects
Martin Scorsese is the master of cinema now that Kubrick is dead and I think Kubrick wouldn't want anyone else to take his title
Kubrick would be proud of Scorsese for sure
@@Thespeedrap yes he would Especially knowing how much he loves and cares for filmmaking and his love for and the preserving of the films of the past
Kyle Shiflet something you don’t see anymore. It’s all about special effects now
@@drewlbers exactly it's all about explosions and cgi
Kyle Shiflet Kubrick is a legend but imo even if he was still alive Scorsese would still b a bit better
1:58 note Scorsese leaning against the wall in the background
14:00 when joe pesci makes that face and gesture I swear he reminds me of Jonah Hill in Wolf of Wallstreet. Maybe Jonah used him a bit for inspiration.
wow this is immensely informative. i am delightedly surprised and glad to have more movie recommendations from this
Excellent work on a world class director. The analysis on this channel are the best in-depth on UA-cam.👍🏻
Most of Scorsese’s films are best viewed as a PSA for teenagers about the dark lessons of LIFE and paths you could go down if you’re not careful. Older people watching his movies for the first time will give a dose of existential crisis or paranoia at best lol!
This video was absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing ❤️🥰
You forgot to mention his characters tend to be figures exiled from paradise which is why they tend to take a path of self destruction. I'd love to see your Take on The Irishman rich historical background. Thanx, girls, great as always.
Another wonderful video, I really enjoy them!
Glad to see this excellent review. I thought the Irishman was disappointing. But you've reminded me how much amazing work he's done.
In film school, we learned about directors like Scorsese. The term to correctly describe them is called auteur. It’s an artist that can easily be identified by their art. As far as directors go, Tarantino and Wes Anderson are great examples of this. My personal favorite auteur is Mel Brooks. But if you like movies, I suggest looking up other auteurs because they’re always fascinating to discover their signature.
Or just say "Author", god i hate english.
I believe Scorsese's film Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore stars Ellen Burstyn as a single mother came out after Mean Streets, I wonder if Meryl Streep is aware that that movie exists lol
Streep is just salty that she never got a call from the master Scorsese lol
Well researched. Very insightful .
This is one of the Best analysis video I have ever Seen
Plz make more such videos about filmmakers.
Excellet video essay. You forgot to also include that Scorsese movies usually have characters whose pride/ego becomes their downfall. Here are a few examples.
1. Henry Hill thought that he would always have everything under control and Paulie would never find out about his drug deals.
2. Nicky Santoro is too much of a cowboy and started acting reckless. He even sleeps with Ace's wife
3. Bill the butcher underestimated Amsterdam too much
4. Frank Costello thought the state police would never catch up to him and like Nicky started acting reckless
5. Jake Lamotta had too much Machismo and could not contain his rage outside the ring
6. Travis Bickle had a messiah Complex
7. Father Rodriguez likened himself to Jesus Christ and allowed other people to die and suffer for his faith
8. Jordan Belfort had insatiable greed for money and drugs
9. Jimmy Hoffa refused to compromise with the mob, and would not even apologize to Tony Pro for something very petty.
Speaking of cameos, Scorsese is also visible in that scene in Taxi Driver where Cybil enters in slow motion. He's a guy sitting on a stoop in the background looking to the side.
Do “you know it’s a Michael Haneke film if...”
Very interesting! Well done!
I love Scorcese, he was the background to my formative years, the jump from High-School to Young Adult. His rat-pack gangster films are classics but if I had to pick four for me it would be Gangs of New York, Silence, Hugo and New York New York. Silence, so often overlooked is a masterclass in filmmaking and shot composition, depicting inner turmoil, writing, everything. I love it.
Streep: 'I would like to see Scorsese interested in a Female Character? Alice Hyatt. May Archer and The Countess Olenska aren't interesting?
Also Francine From New York, New York. I loved her too..
LMAO Meryl Streep wants to be in Scorsese movie so bad
Can you do “you know it’s a Hitchcock film if”
Truth in 24 frames youll know in the title😂😂
Please continue this director series.
I love how Leonardo Di Caprio became Scorsese's fave actor with time.
And yet, Leo wasn't in The Irishman.
@Mad Media It's true lol
Leo is great but he ain’t no Bobby deniro who is clearly Scorsese’s favorite actor ever
I heard Socorsese is going to do a Film With Robert Diniro and Leonadro DiCaprio called Killers of the flower moon / based on the book by David Grann
ToxxSick Lemons I think Scorsese already got the green light for the film. Now we just have to wait
That shade at Joker
Great analysis. But didn't he do *three* period films (Gangs of New York, Age of Innocence and Silence)?
This is superb. Michael Powell had the most inteteresting take on Scorses's cameo in Taxi Driver. He posited that he was,,in fact, The Devil.
GOD this channel is good. Thank you guys!
Fantastic video! Best filmmaker of all time for me, up there with the likes of Hitchcock & Kubrick when you consider he's still make films like The Irishman decades after Taxi Driver.
Please do a "You Know It's a James Mangold Film IF..." video essay. He's my favourite director of all-time.
@Mad Media First of all, the way you wrote that came off quite rude and snobby. Secondly, like you said, it's an opinion. I look at Mangold's filmmaking skills in a different light to you. If you really want to know my top 10, it goes as follows:
1. James Mangold
2. Denis Villeneuve
3. Christopher Nolan
4. Alfonso Cuarón
5. Alejandro González Iñárritu
6. Steve McQueen
7. Francis Ford Coppola
8. John Krasinski
9. George Stevens
10. Stanley Kubrick
@@IwanAWESOMEstuff I think I like you. A lot of names on your list is also on mine. They're directors with diverse body of work and which I want to emulate one day!
@@AmirAizudin Thank you. I find all their works have affected me either emotionally or on my outlook towards filmmaking.
@Mad Media It's the fact that came off condescending, not pompous. Theirs having a disagreement and then their is being totally rude. I'm fine with you disagreeing with me, but you came off rude due to said disagreement. It's not about having a thicker skin, it's about being calm, collected and not rude.
If you think about it most of his films are about the 7 deadly sins... Wrath...greed...pride
The big 3 to be exact.
Love him. The greatest director in my eyes!
I’ve been saying his name all wrong all this time but now that I look at it it makes sense
Age of Innocence is my favorite movie of his.
One of his best, back when he had the confidence to step away from the gangster movies and focus on "emotional" violence. I thought it signaled that he'd grown beyond the mob stuff but alas, I was wrong...
In the clip where Travis sees his blonde goddess for the first time in slow motion...is that Scorsese sitting up against the wall?
Yeah.
Yes
King of Comedy is a fantastic movie and one of De Niro's best roles. He's more frightening in that movie than in Cape Fear.
"As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a Goodfeather."
I am so glad to have found this channel. A female perspective on cinema. you have a fresh perspective . And the comment sections are so wholesome in your videos.
Please can you do Walter Hill?
I thought Wolf of Wall Street was a psa about Quaaludes.
The guy staring at Cybil Shepherd at 1:50 is Martin Scorsese
this was great! Please do this on Christopher Nolan too.
Btw, you guys make a lot video about "friends" but how about that 70s show
I would have loved to seen Leonardo DiCaprio in Goodfellas as Henry Hill. I believe Martin Scorsese would have definitely cast him if he was a little older. He was only 16 unfortunately when the movie Goodfellas had came out and Ray was 36
"Not what they say they're about," can apply to just about any movie with dramatic depth. I mean, I love Scorsese, but that's pretty much just a description of the idea of themes.
Please do one for Richard Linklater
Please make one for Edgar Wright
Please do “You know it’s a Akira Kurosawa film if”
This video made me realize 2 things:
1. Scorsese is a genius more than I ever thought (and I thought he was one of the most intelligent American directors out there)
2. Todd Philips combined ALL these things in Joker without copying but making these things his.
(I’m Italian, sorry my English)
There's a Martin Scorsese ad on Masterclass
I love your work💋💋💋💋💋 Thank you
SOO GOOD
Ive always wondered this, i might be an idiot. i know he appears in the cab later on in the film. But, when Betsy is first seen during the film, is that Scorsese sitting by the wall, with the beard and black shirt?
Yeah, that's him.
He really has hits for days
5:34 in slow motion You can see a young scorssese covering his face
What about Nancy Meyers?
Yeah I'd choose these films over marvel any day. not that I don't like a rewatch of good old winter soldier, it's just that every thing else isn't as good and at times not even very good at all.
@@Mr.Coffee576 I'd say Iron Man 1, Winter Soldier and Infinity War are the only you can rewatch more then once. All the rest are okay - just boring.
Tbh it just depends on the person, I can rewatch MCU movies without it boring me & don't feel the need to rewatch Scorsese films
@@qtasma I respect your respect and opinion.
@@Ghost7065 I personally can rewatch Mcu and Scorsese movies. Both are great in their own ways.
Joker You can’t really compare the two
You Know When..? A Light Bulb Flashes!!!
Please do Sergio Leone next
Have you ever thought of making a video about David Fincher?
You know it's a Von Trier film IF...
The best to ever do it.
Thanks for being a helpful resource for a young 20 something trying to teach himself film. 😃
Please, please, please just watch the movies yourself and try to not let these people spoil them for you.
We want to Perch on Scorsese's Head, - West Side Pigeons, Steven Spielberg's Animaniacs.
Do this about sergio leone
At 1:58 young Martin can be seen eyeing the blonde
Taxi fucked me up. I got affraid that some day I might become that guy. It woke me up at a young age.
Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore is definitely a woman’s picture.
Great film of his that hardly gets mentioned/praised
Defintely one his more underrated movies but he stated that his real feminist film was Taxi Driver I would like to know what do yojvthknk of that statement
I’m not sure where the feminism comes in in Taxi Driver. There are only two women and one is a teen prostitute and the other a cipher about whom we learn very little. Interestingly re Alice, he admitted to Ellen Burstin that he didn’t know how to make a woman’ a film and she said “I’ll show you”.
Right?! That film is not even mentioned in this video, other than a second for a music score. Too bad, thats my favorite film he made and with a strong female lead... Thank you Ellen Burstyn
@@vanessaheine8093 Taxi Driver is a critique of toxic masculinity. Therefore, it is a feminist film.
Can u do "You Know it's Amy Sherman-Palladino If..."
It’s not a Neil Breen film without younger hot women for wives, computers, evil corporate bad guys, government hacking, super intelligent capabilities, cheap low budget production, lengthy voice overs and exposing more corporate crimes.
Score-say-see
"Alice doesn't live here anymore" Mrs. Streep
Behind every great director is a Thelma Shoonmaker.
1:58 that's gotta be Scorcese wearing a jean and a black shirt ryt
Woody Allen has such a distint Style that deserves a you it's him/her episode
