    • @rizzo-films
      @rizzo-films Год назад +148

      Honestly I don’t know if he would. He has great respect for actors and when he is one (and not in his own film) he’s probably just being an actor, knowing that a know-it-all actor telling the director what to do would cause a lot of trouble on set and needlessly extend production time. Unless he’s also producer, then there’s a loophole…

    • @jas_bataille
      @jas_bataille Год назад +79

      He absolutely wouldn't, he's a professional who knows that set time is extremely precious, he doesn't have all day and he's there to have fun in the actor's role. Have been in the entertainment industry all my life and those people are *everything* but their stereotypes. Co-managing a multi-million dollars budget while directing a bunch of hypersensitive people (by definition, I'm an actor too sometimes, that's how it is) and super-perfectionists everywhere requires as many seconds of your perfectly focused attention as you could ever get. These people work 15, sometimes up to 20 hours a day, for 2, 3, 6 months in a row, maybe even a year. Contrary to actors (who mostly are like that anyway) they can't come there late or anything. Trust me, being a director at this level is literally the furthest thing from the snot-nosed artsy author stereotype going 'round bossing people randomly. The industry is a lot more simple than people think... it's just insanely high standard, really. The essentials about making movies and acting remain the exact same, if you're a talented actor or director out of Hollywood, you can be a talented one in Hollywood, if you survive the pressure and the networking. That's really it.

    0:54: He does appear the very imaginary fourth member of the Good Fellas.

    After Hours is an excellent comedy, I would hope Scorsese can make at least one more outright comedy movie in future.

    "How'd you like to turn five again?" Shout out to the writer who wrote that line for the commercial.
