This just made me cry and cry. I miss my grandparents so much, I wish you all could’ve met them. But one thing I learned, Scorsese’s grandparents were married at old St. Patrick’s Basilica. I just did their catacomb tour and Martin Scorsese chairs the church’s foundation.
Mr Scorsese, congratulations for these precious videos, giving and amazing testimony /legacy of this generation of Italo Americans helping us to understand what is the society now in America and how they built your country... As italiano I'm very proud of this generation (yr parents) and of course also of your amazing films especially considering your beginning early inspiration, as you said, came from Italian movies... Thanks!!
This is such a beautiful gift for Mr. Scorsese and other Italian Americans re: first hand accounts of Italian American people's lives. Catherine and Charles remind me of my grandparents. We should all be grateful of the shoulders we stand on.
Memories! All Italian families are the same...LOL....they sound just like my grandparents, aunts and uncles! I can almost smell her sauce! MMM MMM Good!
Mr. Scorsese, I am from a town near Polizzi, when i went there last time, I heard a story that you visited there and found out the name was really SCOZZESE and some how it got misspelled when your grandfather came to the US. Is there any truth to this story ? By the way, I feel like we are related with these videos. thank you for putting them in youtube.
I really think Italian family conversations , emotions and expressions are similar to an Indian family. I think I won't have a problem getting along with an Italian community😊
A business has an overhead and you can lose money if sales are less than operating costs. I know. My father opened a coin, stamp and hobby shop , rent was way too high and not enough profits , his business partner skipped town went down to Florida some place left my father holding onto a $10,000 debt in 1968
Marty: "How many rooms?" Charlie: "...Four rooms, it was. 4 small rooms..... daytime u pick 'em up, nighttime u sleep- Whaddya tink it was?" Cate:"Whaddya tink it was?" BTW--What's the pale yellow, triangular shaped dish, at Martin's right, on the table ( 4:28)? Looks like a spoon or something sticking out of it.... is that Parmesan, or the butter dish?
What a pleasure it was to watch this.
Wonderful insight into Scorsese's family background. Now I know why I really like him.
Love Charlie Scorsese. I wish New York was still like this.

Kathy Scorsese is the cutest lady.

Charles Scorsese : "Today's they're so soft that'd'they'd' get a washing machine. They got this, they got that !"
I like how father and son are in the same position at 4:29. Awesome post.
scorsese's dad had a strong mother
