It's crazy to think about Scorsese being asked in 1997 if he had anymore big projects in him. And Scorsese questioning his own durability. He's made so many classics since then.
And it's crazy that Coppola, from 97 till these days, didn't have a real amount of money to make his projects. He made The Godfather and Apocalypse Now....it seems Hollywood forgot it
Scorsese is a maniac, workaholic living legend. An all around all genre champion. He's a rare, rare breed. dude has done TV, movies, ads, short films, documentaries. Has done comedy, drama , biography, action, gangster, religion. The only thing that i really want him to make- science fiction and horror. both these elements are used in other genre movies by him. But not full sci-fi or horror
@@rajatbhat7799 that’s fair. i’d say the closest i’ve seen to a fully fledged horror in a scorsese film would be either shutter island or cape fear. both psychological thrillers.
and just like Apocalypse Now, it's as divisive as it is. A lot of people don't get it and with their ignorance, calling it trash. Lol. I don't get it, why don't they just say they don't get it. lol
Absolutely love that Scorsese takes the time to give De Palma the credit for discovering De Niro even when the interviewer didn’t seem to care that much. Classy move indeed.
@KClouisville yeah, I felt like there was kind of a clash between the interviewer and and interviewees here. He kept asking leading questions and they just didn't go where he wanted them to go.
These two are like an old married couple starting and finishing each other's sentences. They have like a telepathy with one another. The thoughts and ideas fly fast and loose. Its like two big giant encyclopedia books on the history of cinema talking point/counterpoint back and forth, overlapping dialogue nonstop like a speed round of movie trivia with director commentary on in the background and film fact pop ups popping up throughout. They are movie in and of themselves.
Incredible. They are reading our minds. CGI as an unfortunate creative shackle instead of an asset and in todays cinematography a real eyesore that can't hold a candle to the realism of let's say Star Wars. Even though in the right hands CGI can be a powerful asset not a black eye on modern cinema. Preach.
I'd defy anyone filmmaker in the Marvel studio's movies to make movies like Francis and Marty have in their heyday. They didn't worry about guns and explosions going off like crazy they just gave you a great film. It's like Marty had said that the Marvel movies are primarily going for the roller coaster films and unfortunately that's lost on a lot of filmmakers nowadays.
Bruh, I can't even keep up with the amount of wonderful film history and appreciation these two are sharing to the world. Two of the greats, showing us why they are great!
Agreed. Now everything is paid for, by subscription or advertising revenue. I'm thinking these two legends appeared without a movie to sell. Just to talk about their art and profession. Interesting however Scorsese missed the mark ref television. Or maybe that's how quickly life, art, entertainment and our working lives have evolved.
Let's be honest, Scorsese is the reason most of us are here Coppola,aside from being a pedophile defender, hasn't done anything worthwhile since the 80s and is a lot less interesting to hear in this interview. Take him out of it and nothing is lost
Francis actually wanted Martin to direct Godfather ll but the studio wouldn't let him. He only had three films under his belt but Francis already knew he was a genius. Francis was also instrumental in getting Martin the director's seat for Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore since he personally recommended him to Warner Brothers.
Wonder what these gentlemen would say about the modern medium of streaming services, which has allowed for very long-form storytelling. The development of character arches can take many, many hours, and you get to know them in great depth. I think in some ways the medium feeds on impatience and are quite addicting, but the stories can also be incredibly compelling.
9:47 when Coppola says movies are not like coca cola they dont have a standard product they can rely upon and expand, he didnt know that they would figure out how to do that. Look at Marvel movies, theyre trite boring corporate brands that produce three movies a year that are predictable and marketable to a mass audience. Then those people feel like theyre being attacked by scorses when he calls them dumb movies. They are dumb and they are not art, its a coca cola bottle. No risk, big reward
This is such a great interview! They practically predicted studios like a24 and neon would come about, and the artists that came with them. Which makes sense as to why Marty is such a fan of Robert Eggers and Ari Aster.
television series is the new format rivalling theatrical releases for cinematic quality..these two are the last of the classic filmmakers with tremendous work along the lines of ford, kurasawa, lean, bergman, fellini, hawkes, altman, and, more recently, burton, spike lee, nolan, and gibson
I find it very interesting that the things they were saying in this interview from '97 are as relevant in 2021 as it was back then. The low attention span kids had back then because of 20 minute sitcoms can now be blamed on Tiktok and social media in general. As the saying goes "The more things change, the more they stay the same."
Frankly, I grew up on the 25 minute TV shows and didn't suffer from low attention span. That has come into major focus with, first TH-cam, then TikTok, and the whole internet social media thing.
@denroy3 This is an extremely classic dynamic. The older people back then claimed something about you when you were young. You deny that it was true. Now you claim that the same thing is actually true about the young people of today. You've become a cliche of history, completely unaware of your own hypocrisy.

The Marvel movies are great, they just have the misfortune of being in a medium where being successful destroys everything after it. After Marvel, every other movie is pressured to duplicate Marvel’s success. I blame the studio’s refusal to understand that good movies don’t need to comply to blueprints of other great movies. Or that some films don’t need to be blockbusters.
The difference between Marty and the many greats of his generation is that he still has a lot to say about the world. I like and respect his classics, but Silence and Killers of the Flower Moon felt like his best yet. It not only challenges you to shift your world view, but also asks questions about whether we can do better.
Yes and unlike even younger directors like Nolan, he has adapted to the times and isn't fighting and resisting things like digital film, cgi, or streaming but is rather adapting and using them for his vision which is why he's still relevant even at his age.
I like Scorsese! He seems so fking decent to me! He doesnt iterrupt anyone. He is such an good storyteller. He can create the most brutal gangster movie but in real life not touch a thing and be kind to anyone. The best!
From my perspective, when these guys go, the days of the types of films they made as being a 'cultural event' dies with them. At the present time we are running off the fumes of what they did. And the idea of this type of 'luxury art form' only survives in our memory and with their presence, even if the movies they make now don't necessarily capture the magic that their older ones do, we still hold the sentiment and nostalgia in what they create now. This also goes for some of the other older greats, such as the ones mentioned by Scorsese in this interview. When they go, it goes with them. In a world of muddled technology, and a lack of focus on one thing, the cinema is a thing of the past. It is also spread out and made ineffective by the vast amount of released media lost in the shuffle of streaming services. Just consider that once upon a time every small town had a little theater in the square, that is practically obsolete. And they are dwindling by the day elsewhere. Not to mention just the art form itself lacks in substance, vision, and craft, more so than it ever has. The movies we happen to consider great these days by younger movie-digital makers pale in comparison to the cinema of the past. And when younger people finally get around to seeing the older ones, even they can't deny it.
Remember Marty made Hugo, the 3-D movie about George Melies. Cameron said it was the best use of 3-D he ever saw. I agree. What's Am using about this talk is Marty sounds like I've set the speed of the video at 2x.
Everything that Marty was criticized for saying recently about the current Hollywood system, his alleged old-fart "get off my lawn" attitude, it's right here and fully fleshed out 23 years before. Marty was living it as it started to unfold. But he missed a couple of elements in his predictions: 1) The "made for China" approach to filmmaking, (which brings me to the next one)... 2) The rise of crappy animation-quality CGI where they throw everything but the kitchen sink at your eyeballs and aching brain... over and over and over again. 3) The quick and dirty multiplex "best-seller not long-seller" approach, where a film is made or broken in the first weekend. But then...! Marty also didn't predict the rise of entertainment services like Netflix. Also, he didn't predict theaters closing, then people staying away in droves (me one of them), because we don't want to bring a virus home. So much money invested with no return in the foreseeable future, the industry may be in the painful process of experiencing another paradigm shift, and an unforeseen and abrupt one at that. This after they have squeezed cinema chains for so long... especially Disney and their draconian terms.
I'd never heard of United Artists before this interview but it sounds a bit like A24.They both seemed pretty cynical throughout the interview about the current landscape & future but its nice to see Scorsese lately praising exciting young new filmmakers like Aster, Eggers & Celine Song in the past few months.
It was absurd Scorsese didn't win best director for "The Aviator"....Clint won for "Million Dollar Baby" which was a good film but it was the script and performances which made it
Imagine you are the television director of this production interviewing two of the greatest cinema directors of all time. Then play that photographer’s game that any photographer worth his salt can NEVER stop playing: “Border Patrol.” Look around the edges of the frame Look around the edges of the subjects Poorly done Things are cut off in the foreground and background All the director or cinematographer had to do was use his eyes to scan the shots before he started, but he skimped out Maybe the production was rushed Shame on them if it was a rushed shoot They could have spent another hour or so ironing out the shots Oh well If you get it wrong on tape, it lives that way when seen You can only cut around it or reshoot it Here we are all these YEARS later watching a great interview imperfectly shot because they could not spare a couple HOURS to fix the shot compositions Bah I would not know what I was doing, probably, if I was the guy in charge Who knows about that contingency? All I know is that the purity of the framing is off in the shots to my eyes in this interview. I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
Amazes me how people are apparently shocked (in this comment section) that they "predicted the future of movies so accurately". Isn't that hard, when you see how things are trending. Things won't change for the better if it isn't trending in the right direction. Sure there will probably always be great outlier stand-alone films, but as long as guarenteed shareholder profits are worshipped more than risk- taking/ innovations/ great movies... it'll continue to be this bad, if not worse in the future
It's crazy to think about Scorsese being asked in 1997 if he had anymore big projects in him. And Scorsese questioning his own durability. He's made so many classics since then.
Well Coppola was done by 97! So probably Scorsese just wanted to be polite about his journey.
And it's crazy that Coppola, from 97 till these days, didn't have a real amount of money to make his projects. He made The Godfather and Apocalypse Now....it seems Hollywood forgot it

He is
Crazy how the points they make in this conversation have only grown more and more relevant in the years since. 2 very prescient men
I could listen to these two men for 10 hours. Fascinating perspectives on art.
AGREE
What fascinated me is the perilous high wire act that even these great directors went through to make some of America's greatest cinema.
"I'm 55. How many more films can you make??" This aged so well.
I absolutely love hearing both of these beautiful people talk 🎥
i could listen to them talk for hours. scorsese's genius is so apparent in his interviews and his brain goes a mile a minute

You can see Francis admiration for Martin

Francis was also instrumental in getting Martin the director's seat for Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore since he personally recommended him to Warner Brothers.
I wanted to listen to Marty talk about the posters...and this dude changed the subject.
I love Rumble fish
Absolutely losing it at the DnB music that plays over the interludes. Marty's PS1 Adventure Ft Francis Ford Coppola.
Great interview too!
You definitely weren’t alive in 1997.

So informative on our cinema history, even from 26 year's ago.

To the point 16:00
It was absurd Scorsese didn't win best director for "The Aviator"....Clint won for "Million Dollar Baby" which was a good film but it was the script and performances which made it
What about GOODFELLAS vs DANCES WITH WOLVES????
My god!
1997
DILLITAUNT was here for the insight & inspiration
Imagine you are the television director of this production interviewing two of the greatest cinema directors of all time.
Then play that photographer’s game that any photographer worth his salt can NEVER stop playing: “Border Patrol.”
Look around the edges of the frame
Look around the edges of the subjects
Poorly done
Things are cut off in the foreground and background
All the director or cinematographer had to do was use his eyes to scan the shots before he started, but he skimped out
Maybe the production was rushed
Shame on them if it was a rushed shoot
They could have spent another hour or so ironing out the shots
Oh well
If you get it wrong on tape, it lives that way when seen
You can only cut around it or reshoot it
Here we are all these YEARS later watching a great interview imperfectly shot because they could not spare a couple HOURS to fix the shot compositions
Bah
I would not know what I was doing, probably, if I was the guy in charge
Who knows about that contingency? All I know is that the purity of the framing is off in the shots to my eyes in this interview.
I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
Prayed for you, man. And I get what you’re saying, the composition was a little distracting. I mostly listened to the video in the background.
scorsese rap god :D

37:03 Coppola's one regret
Scorsese speaks in 1.2x speed.
Marty speaks like it’s double time 😂
Only 10000 views!
The quality of the video had me thinking it was shot in the early 80's, at most. Then I noticed that neither Coppola nor Marty looked young.
Nothing about this looks remotely early 80’s.
Amazes me how people are apparently shocked (in this comment section) that they "predicted the future of movies so accurately". Isn't that hard, when you see how things are trending. Things won't change for the better if it isn't trending in the right direction. Sure there will probably always be great outlier stand-alone films, but as long as guarenteed shareholder profits are worshipped more than risk- taking/ innovations/ great movies... it'll continue to be this bad, if not worse in the future
I have a new project in the works. Let's have my drone and your drone meet for lunch in the Green Room in the Beverly Hills hotel...
Can’t believe the interviewer would waste time by asking questions instead of making them watch The Sopranos
I mean I think De Niro's role in Goodfellas was too big to be called a cameo. Supporting, okay.
