Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Martin Scorsese picked ‘INSIDE OUT’, ‘PARASITE’ as he played the movie ranking game on TikTok.
In the trending video, Martin Scorsese picked Pan’s Labyrinth, Dancer in the Dark, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood over Wonder Woman and Inside Out when ranking his favorite movies on TikTok.
Currently continuing his astonishing late-career run of masterworks with the just-released crime epic Killers of the Flower Moon, Martin Scorsese stands as the last, best hope for cinema. There isn’t another guy going out to bat for the cinematic experience with the same vigour, urgency and purpose — and this is an 80-year-old we’re talking about.
Aside from his own masterful oeuvre of awards-winners and Robert De Niro-starrers, he has been at the forefront of movie preservation since the ’90s with the Film Foundation, which he co-founded with the object of ensuring cinema’s survival for future generations. A prescient move ahead of cinema’s present era, dominated by superhero movies (read: “theme park rides,” per the big man) and home streaming, chipping away at the allure of the big screen experience.
