Apple on Monday dropped a first look at ‘Mr. Scorsese,’ a documentary about the life and career of notable filmmaker Martin Scorsese.
Directed by Rebecca Miller, the five-episode docuseries will deep dive into Scorsese’s approach to filmmaking.
As per Apple, the documentary “examines how Martin Scorsese’s colourful life experiences informed his artistic vision as each film he made stunned the world with originality.
“Starting with his earliest experiences (New York University student films) through to the present day, this documentary explores the themes that have fascinated Scorsese, including the place of good and evil in the fundamental nature of humankind.”
The first-look clip of the documentary shows the filmmaker and friends recalling his efforts to protect his cut of 1976’s ‘Taxi Driver.’
“They’re going to destroy the film anyway, you know. So let me destroy it. I’ll destroy it. But before destroying it, I’m going to steal it,” the filmmaker says in the ‘Mr. Scorsese’ footage.
