Martin Scorsese Tries to Guess His Own Movies from Letterboxd Reviews
Acclaimed director Martin Scorsese appeared in a lighthearted TikTok video with his daughter Francesca Scorsese, where he tried to match witty Letterboxd one-liners to his own films. The game turned into a fun exploration of his career and a glimpse into their warm father-daughter dynamic.
A Playful Guessing Game
Francesca read out a series of humorous Letterboxd reviews while her father attempted to identify which of his movies each comment referred to. One remark asked:
Would Remy from “Ratatouille” feel at home in “Goodfellas”?
Scorsese laughed and guessed correctly, showcasing his self-aware sense of humor. Another review stated:
Chat, do I need therapy for being SO attracted to De Niro in this?
Without hesitation, Scorsese named “Cape Fear,” surprising Francesca, who exclaimed, “How did you get that?!” Marty simply shrugged in response.
Apple TV Collaboration
The TikTok was created in partnership with Apple TV, coinciding with the release of the five-part documentary series “Mr. Scorsese,” which explores the director’s legendary career and influence on cinema.
A Social Media Regular
It’s become common for Francesca, 25, to feature her father in her popular social media content. Their playful relationship often delights fans. Last Halloween, the duo joined the “Beez in the Trap” trend, with the Oscar-winning director giving a deadpan stare while Francesca appeared as the Kool-Aid Man.
He taught me cinema, I taught him Letterboxd. — Francesca wrote in the video caption.
