Martin is known for the movies with their dark shades and excellent use of camera.....Not to forget the editing of the movies (You never feel tired while watching the movies of Martin). He is a genius in his own. Martin is a good screenwriter, producer, actor and a film historian apart from being director of world class movies.

Martin Scorsese was born in New York City on November 17, 1942. Scorsese has been married to Helen Morris since 1999; she is his fifth wife. In his childhood Martin was influenced greatly by movies like "The Bicycle Thief", "Paisà","Rome",and "Open City".

Martin has directed movies like:
