But now he says he can no longer go to watch movies in cinema theatres because he becomes too riled by the behavior of his fellow moviegoers.
Critic Peter Travers wrote: “I asked the maestro why he doesn’t see movies in theatres anymore and he criticized the audiences who babble on phones during the movie, leave to order snacks and soda, and keep up a noise level loud enough to drown out the actors.”
Travers challenged the vet director: “‘Come on, Marty, we couldn’t keep our mouths shut when we were kids.'”
Travers added: “Scorsese’s eyes darkened. ‘Yeah, maybe,’ he conceded, ‘but when we talked it was always about the movie and the fun we had chewing over the details.'”
In his long career, Scorsese has received 16 Academy Oscar nominations for his work, including winning the Best Director Oscar for police thriller The Departed (2007).
