Jimmy Mac and Lindsay Lawler talk with Ian Nathan, one of the UK’s leading film writers, about his new book Martin Scorsese: The Iconic Filmmaker and His Work. Ian explains what sets Scorsese apart after more than fifty years of directing and breaks down the themes that run through his films. He talks about the evolution of Scorsese’s storytelling, his collaborations with actors like Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio, and why his work continues to influence filmmakers around the world.

Ian also shares insights from writing about all 26 of Scorsese’s films and explains how each one reflects a mix of personal vision and cultural commentary. His experience as a longtime contributor to major outlets and as a former editor at Empire gives him a clear view of how Scorsese shaped modern cinema.
