Legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese appeared in a new TikTok with his daughter Francesca Scorsese, where he tried to recognize his own films based on short and witty Letterboxd reviews. The playful video quickly drew attention for its humor and charm.
In the video, Francesca reads one-liner reviews from Letterboxd, asking her father to match each quip to one of his movies. The game highlights both Scorsese’s sharp memory and his daughter's lighthearted influence on his social media presence.
“Would Remy from ‘Ratatouille’ feel at home in ‘Goodfellas’?”
Scorsese laughed at the clever comparison before guessing the correct movie. The challenge continued with another review:
“Chat, do I need therapy for being SO attracted to De Niro in this?”
Without hesitation, Scorsese identified the movie as Cape Fear, impressing Francesca, who shouted in surprise, “How did you get that?!” Marty responded with a modest shrug.
The TikTok was created in partnership with Apple TV, tied to their recent release of the five-part documentary series Mr. Scorsese, which delves into the director’s long and celebrated career.
Francesca Scorsese, now 25, often features her father in endearing social media posts. For Halloween, the duo joined the “Beez in the Trap” trend, with Francesca dressed as the Kool-Aid Man while the Oscar-winner humorously glared into the camera.
He taught me cinema, I taught him Letterboxd, Francesca wrote in the video caption, summing up their warm and teasing dynamic.
