Director Martin Scorsese joined his daughter Francesca Scorsese in a TikTok video where he had to link snarky one-liner reviews from Letterboxd to his own movies. The game had Francesca reading clips of critiques while Martin guessed which film they described.
One review asked, “Would Remy from ‘Ratatouille’ feel at home in ‘Goodfellas’?” to which Scorsese seemed to agree. Another review said,
“Chat, do I need therapy for being SO attracted to De Niro in this?”Martin instantly recognized it as “Cape Fear,” surprising his daughter.
Francesca expressed her amazement: “How did you get that?!” and Marty just shrugged. She added,
“He taught me cinema, I taught him Letterboxd.”
The video was created in partnership with Apple TV, coinciding with the release of their five-part documentary series “Mr. Scorsese,” which chronicles the filmmaker’s career.
Francesca often features her father in endearing videos on TikTok. For example, during Halloween, they participated in the “Beez in the Trap” trend, with Martin giving an intense look while Francesca dressed as the Kool-Aid Man.
