“Movies are like people living next to you. Films have become such an important part of my life that I cannot live without them. And I thought that films are what I want to give to other people." An illustrated creative biography of one of the most authoritative directors in history, the king of "gangster" cinema and the creator of such films as "Taxi Driver", "Goodfellas", " Gangs of New York", "The Departed", "Shutter Island", "The Aviator", "The Wolf of Wall Street" and many others. His name is known to everyone, his contribution to cinema cannot be overestimated (as confirmed by more than 100 awards and prizes). As a child, Scorsese dreamed of being a priest, but ultimately made a choice in favor of cinema. At the beginning of his career, he worked with various actors, and then he met Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio and stopped looking. He makes almost all his films in the same genre, but how different they are from each other! Where did his passion for cinema begin, how does he come up with new stories, and how does he manage to keep the audience’s attention for many years? You will find answers to these and many other questions inside! Each chapter in the book is dedicated to a separate film by the master. The author was able to communicate with the entire film crew and Scorsese’s friends and talk at the same time about the filming and what was happening in the director’s life during this period. All this with many archival photographs and comments from Scorsese himself!
