neglected to include his own idols John Cassavettes & Michael Powell

he certainly always looked like his old ill-fated man though

thanx to all for replying

thanks for replying although he's always rated the searchers as @1 just after sight and sound in 2012 a show asked him his 1st & he said vertigo

thanks again recall the last waltz & though he didn't helm thee epic of all concert films he edited Woodstock

At least 6 AMPAS victories, be certain

thanx but how about on the star rating system very good ***1/2 or great 4? I posted this couple months ago on youtube is a long interview with almost all of them onstage you may enjoy it

Shoah was 9hrs

Lawrence of Arabia, GWTW & Once Upon a Time in America (directors cut) were longer though) & I once went to Gettysburg 4 hrs & 14 minutes, just had a brief intermission

again to jakeem, time magazine always picks it's best film of the year, any info?

Jakeem, whats TIME magazine's film of the year? I searched all over

Due to Martin Scorsese being everywhere thesedays thought I'd compile his own favorite films below please send comments if you like The Searchers Vertigo Duel in the Sun The Heiress The Red Shoes Kane 8 & 1/2 Giant The Leopard On the Waterfront Abbott & Costello go to Mars-(no foolin') 40 Guns

I see it sweeping 6-7 academy awards

what about the last waltz

great work, though we split on some

this is the type to see first on the b ig screen

I still have faith it will get a wide release, but after the noms roma being a foreign and non huge film may have hurt

from the tons of footage he doesn't have the nasal twang that hoffa had l;ike Nicholson did

what is your opinion of it in itself though

in a matter of hrs it seems tcm altered this graphic

When he was still around Mr. Warmth Don Rickles

Combining favorite's & actual finest who personally rates filmmakers Martin Scorsese & Steven Spielberg superior overall? as for me The Woodman Woody Allen is the best today, but mainly with dialogue,etc

Just curious on how many on here already see Scorsese's huge epic THE IRISHMAN to truly dominate the 92nd annual academy awards?

In my inbox just got news that Oscar winner Joe Pesci won s. actor & over co-star Pacino for The Irishman They are still giving out the rest
