At Tribeca Film Festival, Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro look back on their long partnership, ahead of most recent collaboration, 'The Irishman' jakecoyleAP reports.
Actor Robert De Niro, left, and director Martin Scorsese attend "Tribeca Talks - Director Series - Martin Scorsese with Robert De Niro" during the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival at the Beacon Theatre on Sunday, April 28, 2019, in New York.
But if the conversation relied largely on Scorsese, it still offered a window into their long-running collaboration. Begun with 1973′s “Mean Streets” and stretching over nine feature films, it’s one of the most famous director-actor pairs in cinema. One of Scorsese’s other regulars, Leonardo DiCaprio, was among the full crowd, eager to see the legendary New York duo together.
Though its release is months away, “The Irishman” — one of Netflix’s biggest-budgeted films yet — has already become the new flash point of the ongoing battle between Netflix and movie theaters. The major chains have refused to play releases that don’t abide to the traditional exclusive 90-day theatrical window. Netflix has said that doesn’t serve the interests of its millions of members.
“It’s the old story: How much is enough?” said Scorsese. “It has to do with our foibles and our pride. It just so happens gangsters and killers and prostitutes and gamblers.”
