Martin Scorsese explains why many women didn't go into the speaking parts of his films, so MKH speaks on "going in" on Scorsese's seemingly politically incorrect approach to storytelling. To some, Scorsese is a living legend and genius director!!!For others, he is simply a man out of time, who is right? With his recent criticisms of the "fairground attraction" films that are from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, MKH takes time to wonder what type of representation (or simulation) a Scorsese film stands for based on his uber-masculine template.Could these latest comments be the off-shoots of a fantastic marketing campaign or deep-rooted true feelings? The director of Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Goodfellas and Wolf Of Wall Street is brought to book alongside good-fellow presenters Jay and King Dom.#collaborators, #Hollywood, #HotTopic, #ManOutOfTime, #MoviesForMen, #Scorsese, #TheIrishman, #ToxicMasculinity, #WomenParts
