More quotes by Martin Scorsese
Young film makers should learn how to deal with the money and learn how to deal with the power structure. Because it is like a battle.
Martin Scorsese
There are two kinds of power you have to fight. The first is the money, and that's just our system. The other is the people close around you, knowing when to accept their criticism, knowing when to say no.
Martin Scorsese
Music and film are inseparable. They always have been and always will be.
Martin Scorsese
Movies touch our hearts, and awaken our vision, and change the way we see things. They take us to other places. They open doors and minds. Movies are the memories of our lifetime. We need to keep them alive.
Martin Scorsese
If it's a modern-day story dealing with certain ethnic groups, I think I could open up certain scenes for improvisation, while staying within the structure of the script.
Martin Scorsese
As a child I had terrible asthma.
Martin Scorsese
Your job is to get your audience to care about your obsessions.
Martin Scorsese
If we just sit and exist, and understand that, I think it will be helpful in a world that seems like a record that's going faster and faster, we're spinning off the edge of the universe.
Martin Scorsese
I happen to like vampires more than zombies.
Martin Scorsese
The creation of the island, or the impression of the island, as it changes in the mind of the character also came in to play... there was another very important collaborator, Rob Legato, on special visual effects. And then ultimately there's Thelma Schoonmaker, who keeps me focused during the editing of the picture.
Martin Scorsese
There was always a part of me that wanted to be an old-time director. But I couldn't do that. I'm not a pro.
Martin Scorsese
Oh, the foghorns... even the foghorns, they're all brass. It's something by Ingrid Marshal called Fog Tropes. It's not a sound effect. It's an actual piece of music. If you listen to what's going on after he has a flashback about his wife you'll hear... it sounds like the humpback whales in a way. But it's all music. And we use it again later, too.
Martin Scorsese
Film in the 20th century, it's the American art form, like jazz.
Martin Scorsese
I grew up in the Lower East Side, an Italian American - more Sicilian, actually.
Martin Scorsese
My working-class Italian-American parents didn't go to school, there were no books in the house.
Martin Scorsese
Being a father at a later age is different from when I had my other two daughters when I was in my 20s and 30s. If you're in your 60s and you're with the kid every day, you're dealing with the mind of a child, so it opens up that childishness in you again.
Martin Scorsese
Very often I've known people who wouldn't say a word to each other, but they'd go to see movies together and experience life that way.
Martin Scorsese
Any film, or to me any creative endeavour, no matter who you're working with, is, in many cases, a wonderful experience.
Martin Scorsese
I've seen many, many movies over the years, and there are only a few that suddenly inspire you so much that you want to continue to make films.
Martin Scorsese
Howard Hughes was this visionary who was obsessed with speed and flying like a god... I loved his idea of what filmmaking was.
Martin Scorsese
