More quotes by Martin Scorsese
The storyboard for me is the way to visualise the entire movie in advance.
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
If I'm not complaining, I'm not having a good time, hah hah!
Martin Scorsese
The cinema began with a passionate, physical relationship between celluloid and the artists and craftsmen and technicians who handled it, manipulated it, and came to know it the way a lover comes to know every inch of the body of the beloved. No matter where the cinema goes, we cannot afford to lose sight of its beginnings.
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
My films really have to be a part of a whole body of work that says something to me.
Martin Scorsese
People say you should do it this way, someone else suggests that, yes, there's financing, but maybe you should use this actor. And there are the threats, at the end - if you don't do it this way, you'll lose your box office if you don't do it that way, you'll never get financed again... 35, 40 years of this, you get beat up.
Martin Scorsese
I tried for about two semesters in a preparatory seminary. But I was about 15 and didn't fully understand what a vocation means.
Martin Scorsese
Mean Streets dealt with the American Dream, according to which everybody thinks they can get rich quick, and if they can't do it by legal means then they'll do it by illegal ones.
Martin Scorsese
Sometimes God picks you up and tells you, You've been messing around now. You're going to have to stop this, stop that, but I'll give you another chance. And you wonder why you're given another chance. It must be for something it must be to celebrate life.
Martin Scorsese
Violence is not the answer, it doesn’t work any more. We are at the end of the worst century in which the greatest atrocities in the history of the world have occurred... The nature of human beings must change. We must cultivate love and compassion.
Martin Scorsese
I always tell the younger filmmakers and students: Do it like the painters used to...Study they old masters. Enrich your palette. Expand the canvas. There's always so much more to learn.
Martin Scorsese
I don't know how else to tell the story except to utilise that vocabulary: the rain, the darkness, the mansions, the framing, etc, the lighting and that sort of thing.
Martin Scorsese
My father had this mythological sense of the old New York, and he used to tell me stories about these old gangs, particularly the Forty Thieves in the Fourth Ward.
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
Film in the 20th century, it's the American art form, like jazz.
Martin Scorsese
What the Dalai Lama had to resolve was whether to stay in Tibet or leave. He wanted to stay, but staying would have meant the total destruction of Tibet, because he would have died and that would have ripped the heart out of his people.
Martin Scorsese
I remember the Korean War very well. And I remember the soldiers who were POWs who supposedly were brainwashed, quote, unquote, who gave in, so to speak. And when they came back, they were treated like pariahs and traitors.
Martin Scorsese
The only thing I really wanted was the freedom to be able to get what I want on film. I’ve dealt with the MPAA since 1973, so I know how to renegotiate and rework.
Martin Scorsese
You don't make pictures for Oscars.
Martin Scorsese
