  • Before he became a legendary director, Martin Scorsese had his share of first jobs-and first mistakes. In this interview for WSJ. Magazine’s Innovators issue, the director behind "Goodfellas," "Mean Streets," and "Taxi Driver," among others, discusses his first experience on the set of “Smiles,” directed by John G. Avildsen of “Rocky,” and working with Albert and David Maysles. He also looks back on his job responsibilities at the edit desks in broadcast news and shares the storytelling drive that got him to where he is today, ahead of the release of "Killers of the Flower Moon."

    This is so inspiring, and not just due to this being Mr. Scorsese! So many of these masters rarely discuss how they got started or sustained themselves.

    one of the greatest directors of all time. every interview is simply magical. a true master of his craft but always being a student and learning. GQ did a breakdown of his films and I wish they would breakdown all 26. may this man never leave us.

      It’s because of the actor’s strike. They’re not allowed to promote the film so he’s forced to do all the heavy-lifting.

    Nolan is better than this old fraud. Nolan turned a 3 hour talkie WWII biopic, half of it in black and white and it made almost a billion dollars. Killers of the Flower Moon is a bomb lol.
