Martin Scorsese

Martin Scorsese
Every scene is a lesson. Every shot is a school. Let the learning continue.
Martin Scorsese

Martin Scorsese
Music and film are inseparable. They always have been and always will be.
Martin Scorsese
Vertigo is probably my favourite Hitchcock film and probably one of my favourite films of all time. It's a film that I'm obsessed with.
