With De Palma’s laughter and jokes, and Scorsese’s lack thereof, you can tell who grew up the son of a surgeon and who grew up on the lower east side of New York. Nowadays Scorsese is a big ball of laughter and joy and that’s great to see.
It also doesn't help that he was a drug addict around this time.
Andy Zambrano I’m so happy for him having the bigger career and coming from more modest means... inspiring #hustle
I'd say the personality difference is from Scorsese's lack of cocaine.
@@yanbrushfire5917 You might be correct.
My cousin Sarah went to film editing school at NYU w/ "Marty". She said, that he was a shut in as a child due to poor health. Back then, doctors advised parents not to let sickly kids go out and play which ended up making them weaker which made them sicker, a vicious cycle. As a shut in kid, Marty would look out the window at people on the streets & sidewalks and try to imagine, what they might be saying or doing, and that was what started him on the path to film making.
Both part of that late 60s early 70s gang... Including Spielberg and Lucas... Both brilliant directors no doubt... Scorcese hit the height when he made Goodfellas.... De Parma.., maybe Scarface although my personal favourite is Carrie
Don't forget about Coppola or Polanski
I love Scorsese films from his prime, and I respect DePalma but I just do not get what is genius about his films. I just do not.
They both look like late 70s/early 80s Coke dealers. I love it.
Martin seems a little coked up too
Marty was a coke addict back in the 70s.
You just need to see After Hours to see that Martin was a massive coke head.
Who can tell the difference between Scorsese on and off cocaine???? 5 or six marriages? Let's not judge. I find both of them unlikable. DePalma has nothing important to say about the world or life. He is just a great stylist.
@@TheEleatic Personally unlikeable or you don't like their films?
Brian had to miss his fishing trip for this interview.
rhys roberts 😂😂😂
With his daisy dukes...#legend
Brian De Palma: "I have a high tolerance for blood, unlike, (points at Scorsese) my associate here."
You just wait!
pretty much blood on Taxi driver tho
It’s refreshing that the audience is quiet, polite and supposedly paying attention.
No cheap laughs or punchlines.
Totally.
Scorsese seemed like a completely different person back then. Today he is much more extroverted.
He was on drugs
This was1978, he was heavy on drugs and was probably entering the most depressing time of his life. I mean, he really thought he was going to die and that Raging Bull would be his last film.
@@rafaelandrade7627 shit this was news to me. Has he ever opened up about what he was going through?
@@basscot17 It's not a secret. After the success of "Taxi Driver", he made "New York, New York", with which he tried to revive the old Hollywood musicals, but it was a critical and box office bomb (and it wasn't nominated for any Oscars!), so he got into drugs and depression. De Niro tried hard to persuade him to direct "Raging Bull", and at first Scorsese didn't want to direct ever again, but he did and the film made some impact and he felt better. And yes, it's so obvious in this interview that something's not right with him (on the other hand, look how joyful De Palma is, I don't know what he was smoking back then :p ).
HAL 9000 Raging Bull came out in 1980, NY NY in 1982*
*All these clips are great, but it would be so much better to make the full episodes available.*
Two masters on their way to becoming legends. That's so amazing to watch. And that's just before they even made Raging Bull and Scarface, among other of their great films that came out in the 80s. I kind of laugh with the comments pointing out how much "high" they both are. So I guess there must be many cocaine experts who watch this. These filmmakers have always been addicted to films and filmmaking so that's the real thing that goes on here. Simple as that.
Dude, De Palma's Blow Out from 1980 is extremely incredible and great and beautiful.
For me it beats Raging Bull and Scarface.
So, yeah. I recommend Brian's film. It's available for purchase on TH-cam, btw.
Scorsese talks so fast, it seems like the video is in x1.75 speed...
DePalma won't stop giggling & Scorsese looks pissed off the whole time.
He was in deep depression back then, after the critical and box office failure of "New York, New York".
"You have to do ANYTHING . You have to steal a camera . You have to steal film . You have to steal money ."
Every piece of interview I see with Scorsese makes me love him even more , & props to DePalma for referencing THE THIEF OF BAGHDAD , it got pulled offa here recently and it's one of the few films that actually lives up to the hype ; "The miracle adventure picture of ALL time" the trailer proclaims , and they did not exaggerate 🎯
Travis Besst - word , I need to vatch more of VVerners' films , I've always enjoyed seeking him in others' especially the obvious reference point to this topic , Les Blank's 'VV. Herzog eats his shoe' , which shows how far he'd go not just for his own work , but to embolden and support the life of finer films & their creators.
Machine gun Scorsese
I said the same thing up above, then I saw your comment. Exactly.
Brian De Palma kinda looks like Ralph Fiennes with a bald head....
You mean like the way Ralph looks without his wig?
To think these guys hadn’t even made their best work at that point.
One could argue for Taxi Driver
Anybody who did, would be correct. Taxi Driver is Scorsese's best for sure and probably one of the 10 best films ever made
Taxi driver is the best scorsese movie
Ever see Taxi Driver?
@@marshallzane7735 taxi driver is for sure my favourite, although goodfellas is arguably his greatest technical achievement and raging bull is a masterpiece also
De Palma kinda seems like a psychopath in this interview
Brynley Jones Exactly what I thought. Good thing he grew a beard.
His movies are cold and distant, he very well could be one.
@@deckofcards87 Most of them are. Bunch of adrenochrome junkies.
Marty too
Al 😂
Paul Giamatti will play De Palma in the biopic.
he was great as bojack
Oscar Issac will play Scorsese
There will be a biopic about brian de palma?
@@devinpabingwit1734 I also thought he would be perfect!! 😂😂
If Filmmakers were anything before they were filmmakers, they were film lovers. That's the something.
Intern 👏🏽
Cinephiles.
i thought Scorsese was more successful at transferring his film inspirations to film
- De Palma's inspirations border on plagiarism
That's beautiful
Dope as hell clothes. I dig it.
I don't think I've ever seen DePalma smile much less laugh heartily before.
Carrie or Taxi Driver?
Scarface or Raging Bull??
The Untouchables or Goodfellas???
All are great films by these two master craftsmen!!!
Scorsese reminds me of Tarantino here, in that I can't tell if he's being incredibly passionate or if he just snorted Colombia's annual GDP before going on the show. Probably both...
you mean DePalma
@@melquizedec no, I mean Scorsese
The character Marty played in “Taxi Driver” reminds a little of the “Jimmy” character Tarantino played in Pulp Fiction, as in they both talk fast. So yeah, Marty and Quentin both talk fast. Especially when they are talking about films and filmmaking. I love De palma too. I could listen too these directors talk film all day. The round table with John Landis, John Carpenter, George Romero is fun too. I might even be missing a couple too.
He ditched that Cocaine habit after he had a nervous breakdown in 1981
@@richardstevens8839 true, but this was recorded in 1978
Two Master Filmmakers when they were young.
Marty looks like cool here!!!
In 1978 films released by these two at the time of this interview...
Scorsese: The Last Waltz (1978) Concert film & documentary about The Band
De Palma: The Fury (1978) A suspenseful film starring John Cassavetes
The next films released by these two...
Scorsese: 1980 "Raging Bull" a drama starring Robert Deniro & Joe Pesci
De Palma: 1979 "Home Movies" a comedy starring Keith Gordon & Kirk Douglas
then De Palma should have been the one looking depressed. The Fury was lame.
I‘m more interested in knowing how Scorsese talks so fast vs how he got started in the film industry 😂
Cocaine
I prefer Brian over Martin coz I feel Brian's movies are kinda faster .He doesn't really need time to build up a plot.
Could the whole interview be published please?
Qt wants a 3some with these 2 directors , qt wishes he was the host
He's watching this on repeat at this very moment. XD
Martin Scorsese: fastest talker of all time
Well, let's not forget auctioneers.
DePalma seems pretty bubbly here, but Hollywood eventually broke him, now Scorsese is the exuberant one embraced by the studios
De Palma looks like Vincent Prices's hippy son.
These two guys made the four best movies ever my opinion Scarface casino goodfelas and Carlitos way
Scorsese can't handle blood? So who directed 90% of his work?
It sounded like he was arguing back to De Palma, saying it was only his own blood he had a problem with, didn't mind other people's blood (hard to hear the exact words, though, cuz he talks so fast).
De Palma is a pain in the ass Martin talks to fast but Geniuses nevertheless!
Scorses's hilarious
This came out in 78. Mothafuckas never even seen the great classic “Scarface” yet. It wasn’t til then the audience became shook
De Palma fresh off The Fury and Marty in his Coke heyday. ahhhhhh
Scorsese's talking speed at that age was unbelievable. It comes in short bursts, like a machine gun. By the time you realize he's starting talking, it's already over, and you have to think thru what he probably said from the context. I'm amazed Cavett can follow him; or at least he's acting like he can. I guess it's easier up close in person. The two directors obviously are used to each other, talking at the same time like an old married couple. But from the outside, it's almost like a foreign language. Someone should write a thesis explaining Scorsese's directing style from his speaking style.
An already fast mind on blow.
Cocaine
He says he has trouble reading. My guess: ADHD
Scorsese is so high on coke in this clip
Martin seems a bit fed up with Brian.......
Saying 'martin' sounds weird having heard everyone call him 'marty' for years now
He was depressed, it had nothing to do with Brian or Dick
7:34 that’s an unsettling laugh
This was before they made even more classics like scarface, goodfellas, the departed, casino, the untouchables and many more
Get ya fuckin shine box
Ive just realized that Scorsese has never directed a western.
I think his next one will have a western feel to a degree, Killers of the Flower Moon.
3:26 to 3:26 Bob's bestie is on a trip
Two legends
i feel like marty snorted 3 lines and brian smoked a fat j to his face right before this interview
DICK CAVETT YOU ARE MY HERO
Two of my favourite directors together being interviewed... perfect.
Scorsese, I doubt requires artificial stimulants. He is obviously bottled energy here.
The only one missing would be Stanley Kubrick 🙏🏽 I love both of these filmmakers 😁🤩
Brian De Palma can't stop giggling like a little schoolgirl.
I never knew these guys were connected. I guess it makes all the sense in the world. I should wiki them.
There's a segment of the HBO documentary on Spielberg where they talk about how in the 70s, Spielberg, Lucas, Scorsese, DePalma and Coppola were friends out and help each other with their movies Brief bit of footage of them hanging out in the trailer:
th-cam.com/video/xPDtHzx-q6M/w-d-xo.html
A link between them early on was De Niro, when he was just starting out. He was in De Palma's first two low-budget films, 'Greetings' and 'Hi Mom,' then was in Scorsese's 'Mean Streets' in 1973.
who's that next to Fidel Castro?
Fede Fidel Castro, lol
Young Scorsese reminds me of Jesse eisenberg
Running schools funny..
Marty was HOT....
De Palma looks like John Carroll Lynch in Zodiac
Mr Cavett, do you have preserved your interview with Sam Peckinpah and Stella Stevens (from 1970, promoting The Ballad of Cable Hogue) ? If you have it, please upload it. Thank you.
Do you have the time McLuhan, Al Hirt, Capote and Gayle Sayers were on the show, I believe it was December 1970, I think
1978 actually. Cavett mentioned The Last Waltz which came out in 1978.
@@jimmybonez8928 This interview is from 1978, yes (June 15, as it says in the description box). The OP was asking about a different episode with different guests.
Marshall McLuhan?
@@johnkirk. Can you think of another McLuhan?!
@@ronmackinnon9374 no need for the snark. I also was not asking you
young scorsese is so suspect 😂
Dressed to Kill
i've always thought they could have done a better job at making that blood on Taxi Driver more realistic, now i know why..
Brian looks so young
Both of these guys were pretty quite the audio was terrible Dick was fine ...but the sound on Martin half off...Di Palma Mike was in a better place...strange....too low the audio was I was really looking forward vto hearing Scorcese talk
It was the 70's man can't blame Martin a Lot of celebrates we're doing blow it was the time of coke like Scarface.
Great film and great acting.
Also great directing
Love these guys!
This is literally awsome!
I have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rarities much like the other videos around here.
One of the Funniest interview!
Brian De Palma really doesn't look like the guy who directed Scarface.
5:50
I love all the comments about how fast Scorsese talks. Yeah, that's what happens when you spent the entire 1970s on cocaine, guys.
Ummm.Hell yes!
Scorsese looks a lot like Charles Manson.
Scorsese is a much more articulate and engaging interview subject now, at least in his 60s-today.
Oh, he's well into his 70s today.

How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rarities much like the other videos.
De Palma looks so weird without a beard.
THANK YOU!
De Palma made some great movies.
You gotta love Martin Scorsese movies but De Palma has Scareface and that movie blows them all away.
Hands down!
And Dick Cavett is inimitable...
Actually, I think Rick Moranis did great imitations of him!
Scorsese the definition of cokehead here.
Scorsese and Jesse Eisenberg have the same voice!
Nailed it
looking like a scene form Carlito's Way
scorsese looks out of it
Genius like them are impossible to find these day, i think the cinema died long time ago, i'm 22 and discovered the past cinema was other quality than now, my father who grew up watching classic films, he used to tell me about that cinema
Mr. Scorsese didnt like blood back there.... im guessing thanks to de Palma´s friendship and love for broken bones and blood he turned out to be the scorsese who made Godfellas and Casino. Thanks Brian.
Walked out bs get it right!
Why is Brian De Palma giggling like a schoolgirl the entire time?
“Are you two.. childhood buddies?”🙄🤦🏻♂️...
Full episode please🙏🏼
Scorsese so humble - De Palma so full of himself.
