Martin Scorcese and Richard Attenborough have joined forces to produce a film called Silver Ghost, which will tell the life stories of Charles Rolls and Henry Royce, the founding fathers of the Rolls-Royce company. But the true protagonist will be Lord Montagu, one of the first petrol heads in history. bit.ly/Kce2H8

Encore playing tribute on the 29th.

The Oscar winning director said that he loves the 3D format so much that if he could go back in time, he would have filmed all his movies, including "Raging Bull" and "Taxi Driver" in the same format.

The critical success of Hugo has inspired Scorsese to make every future film in 3D. bit.ly/I3xK3k

Oliver Stone and Spike Lee were Scorsese's studenta at NYU.

Cape Fear, The Age of Innocence and The Departed are 3 films remade by Scorsese while not forgetting to add his own trademarks

"Raging Bull", a film that Scorsese dedicated to his mentor Haig Manoogian. was later selected as the best film of the decade by U.S. critic gods Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert.

I prefer celluloid - there's no doubt about it. Yet I know that if I was starting to make movies now, as a young person, if I could get my hands on a DV camera, I probably would have started that way . . .There's no doubt I'm an older advocate of pure celluloid, but ultimately I see it going by the wayside, except in museums, and even then it could be a problem.

ACCLAIMED director Martin Scorsese says that when working on a project, the first thing that comes to his mind is the music.

Apparently he designs his films around the soundtrack. It's not news that film directors have a close relationship with the music in their films, but Scorsese makes an art form of it. He is the man, after all, who put Gimme Shelter by the Rolling Stones in Goodfellas, Casino and The Departed. bit.ly/H9PcJH

maybe I watch his Oscar win and cry. almost every night. maybe.

The Wolf of Wall Street adaptation will indeed be the fifth time DiCaprio and Scorsese have worked together as Deadline reports the film has secured financing and the duo are planning to shoot the film this August in New York. I guess that means the director's adaptation of Silence and The Snowman, which were both rumored to be his next project following Best Picture nominee Hugo, will have to wait a little bit longer. bit.ly/GSIvLJ

“The Last Temptation of Christ”, written by Paul Schrader and directed by Martin Scorsese, despite its worldwide achievement also once considered great controversy even though later on people simply consider this film a symbol of Scorsese's own faith when he decided to adapt Nikos Kazantzakis’s novel of the same name.

I strongly believe that Scorsese really put a lot of efforts when creating Hugo, he transforms all his genius craftsmanship to explore an area he never been before, digital imaging (3D) and as we all have witnessed, Hugo is a major hit, such an amazing piece of art from the hands of the greatest filmmaker that invited us to a joyride on a roller-coaster of family entertainment.

Scorsese is also famous for depicting violence in his films and this can be seen in several of his works namely Mean Streets (1973), Taxi Driver (1976), Goodfellas, and also in Casino. Nevertheless, this violence had a new name in Gangs of New York where it is transformed into a character named Bill “The Butcher” Cutting when he fearsomely took control of the 5 slums in New York. Yes, Gangs of New York was another successful epic costume drama from this cinematic icon.

By 'moving swiftly among genres', I'm talking about his other film projects different in genres such as the mesterpiece Age of Innocence, a film based on Edith Wharton's book, the 1997 Disney release, Kundun, and his latest film Hugo.

His everlasting love and passion for filmmaking and cinema industry have him nominated as one of the five best directors of today.

#TRIVIA:
Scorsese's Goodfellas is based on New York crime reporter Nicholas Pileggi's book Wiseguy. Martin Scorsese never intended to make another mob film until he read a review of the book and this inspired him to read it while working on the set of Color of Money in 1986. He had always been fascinated by the Mob lifestyle and was drawn to Pileggi's book because it was the most honest portrayal of gangsters he had ever read.

One of Scorsese's finest work from 1980s period, is Raging Bull (1980), it was filmed in black-and-white based on the rise and fall of boxing champion Jake LaMotta and contained the performance of a lifetime by DeNiro (he put on over fifty pounds to play LaMotta in his later years). Raging Bull earned an Oscar for DeNiro and nominations for Best Film and Director.

This might sound shocking, but honestly my review was a direct cut/paste from here bit.ly/GBqoI9
