Any film, or to me any creative endeavour, no matter who you're working with, is, in many cases, a wonderful experience.

I think what happened there was just the budget would be too big to build these sets because nothing really exists here in New York of that period you have to build it all.

I'm in a different chapter of my life. As time goes by and I grow older, I find that I need to just be quiet and think. There have been periods when I've locked myself away for days, but now it's different - I'm married and we have a daughter who is in my office the whole time.

Music and film are inseparable. They always have been and always will be.

The storyboard for me is the way to visualise the entire movie in advance.

As you grow older, you change.
Martin Scorsese
Image
I think all the great studio filmmakers are dead or no longer working. I don't put myself, my friends, and other contemporary filmmakers in their category. I just see us doing some work.
Martin Scorsese

Sometimes when you're heavy into the shooting or editing of a picture, you get to the point where you don't know if you could ever do it again.

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.

I wouldn't presume to be God's point of view.
Martin Scorsese
Image
Our world is so glutted with useless information, images, useless images, sounds, all this sort of thing. It's a cacophony, it's like a madness I think that's been happening in the past twenty-five years. And I think anything that can help a person sit in a room alone and not worry about it is good.

Film in the 20th century, it's the American art form, like jazz.
Martin Scorsese
Image
Rock & roll seemed to just come to us, on the radio and in the record stores. It became our music. . . But then we uncovered another, deeper level, the history behind rock and R&B, the music behind our music. All roads led to the source, which was the blues.

If everything moves along and there are no major catastrophes we're basically headed towards holograms.

When I'm making a film, I'm the audience.

I would ask: Given the nature of free-market capitalism - where the rule is to rise to the top at all costs - is it possible to have a financial industry hero? And by the way, this is not a pop-culture trend we're talking about. There aren't many financial heroes in literature, theater or cinema.

That subject matter has never left me...The more you're in the material world, the more there is a tendency for a search for serenity and a need to not be distracted by physical elements that are around you.

You've got to protect whatever creative talent you have left.

More than ninety percent of directing a picture is the right casting

There must be people who remember World War II and the Holocaust who can help us get out of this rut.

As a kid I watched the Academy Awards on television and always wanted one - or several - like one of my favorite directions, John Ford. He won six. On the other hand, Orson Welles, who's on the top of my list, didn't win any. Alfred Hitchcock didn't win any. Howard Hawks didn't win any.
