Apple TV+ has premiered a first look at filmmaker Rebecca Miller‘s five-part documentary “Mr. Scorsese”.
The limited series explores the life and career of legendary “Goodfellas,” “Raging Bull,” “The Departed” and “Casino” filmmaker Martin Scorsese.
In the newly released clip, Scorsese and several others (including Steven Spielberg) talk about the rather wild efforts made to protect Scorsese’s cut of 1976’s “Taxi Driver”.
The series aims to examine how Scorsese’s colourful life experiences informed his artistic vision. Starting with his earliest experiences at NYU and running through to the present day, this documentary explores the themes that have fascinated the man.
The series includes never-before-seen interviews with friends, family and longtime collaborators such as Robert De Niro, Daniel Day-Lewis, Leonardo DiCaprio, Mick Jagger, Robbie Robertson, Thelma Schoonmaker, Sharon Stone, Jodie Foster, Paul Schrader, Margot Robbie, Cate Blanchett, Jay Cocks and Rodrigo Prieto.
“Mr. Scorsese” premieres October 17th on Apple TV+.
