Martin Charles Scorsese is considered by many to be the greatest filmmaker to ever step behind a movie camera. He is more than just what many consider a master of gangster dramas. He is a director who explores human conflict and troubled souls more than just about anyone. His catholic guilt and graphic take on the world are expressed through layered, erratic characters that sometimes mirror the man who created them. Working with some of the best actors in the finest roles of their careers, Scorsese is the boldest and brightest director of his or anyone’s era. With 25 narrative films and 16 documentaries, his legacy goes beyond what he has given us on screen, but rather his continued fight to keep movies alive, sparking a global dialogue that keeps audiences around the world on the edge of their seat every time he speaks. In other words, he is the definition of a living legend and in this 15-part series, his work speaks for itself, as Ryan McQuade and guest host Sophia Ciminello dive deep into the filmography of the GOAT, Martin Scorsese.
