This masterpiece MUST be seen by aspiring filmmakers – at least according to director legend Steven Spielberg!

Do you have big visions and want to live them out on screen? Do you want to make a successful start as a filmmaker? If you’re pursuing a career in the film industry as a director, then you definitely need to have seen a movie – at least according to director legend Steven Spielberg. And he should know, because he enchanted millions and millions of moviegoers with his cinema visions of strange worlds and fantastic adventures. For Steven Spielberg, this is a must-see movie Martin Scorsese Mafia Masterpiece”GoodFellas“.

In an interview with Spielberg revealed that “GoodFellas: Three Decades in the Mafia” to him is more than just a good movie, it’s a prime example of masterful directing that he himself can’t get enough of:

“Henry Hill, Jimmy the Gent, Tommy DeVito, Paulie, Karen, Billy Batts, the Lufthansa heist… you only have to name a few of these names and I suddenly get an irresistible urge to give Martin Scorsese’s ‘GoodFellas’ another time to listen watch I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve seen this cinematic masterpiece […] have seen.”

Don’t be put off by the running time

Young aspiring filmmakers in particular should not be put off by the running time, but see it as a lesson in directing:

“Sitting for 2 hours and 26 minutes is not a guilty pleasure, but rather a masterclass for any aspiring filmmaker who wants to see a breathtaking balancing act of multiple storylines, timelines, shocking violence and violent humor.”

… another favorite Scorsese movie

In addition, Scorsese’s film has “the best score since ‘American Graffiti'” and the best spoken story since Billy Wilder’s ‘Woman Without a Conscience’. With so much praise, it’s no wonder Spielberg calls the movie Scorsese’s favorite:

“Everyone has a favorite Scorsese movie and this is it for me – in a photo finish with my other favorite movie of his”Like a raging bull‘.”
