Martin Scorsese: Self

Quotes 

• Martin Scorsese : [Of Powell & Pressburger and The Archers]  ... it was like very strange, these almost experimental film-makers working inside a totally commercial system.

• Martin Scorsese : [Of Powell & Pressburger and The Archers]  I mean, who really cared? Who really cared? There you had one of the greatest film-makers in the world, group, you know it's not only one person, it's a bunch of people, himself, Pressburger, whomever he worked with, and after Tales of Hoffmann, a few other things, forget it. I don't think many people cared about it, even they did understand it, it was like very strange, these almost experimental film-makers working inside a totally commercial system. And a kind of very subversive commercial method and I don't think anybody really cared actually.
