In 2007, Martin Circess, who won the Academy Award for Best Director, stood on stage and said 12 "thanks" in a row, asking: "Should I check the envelope again?" ”
The result, which left the audience waiting for hours that night, left Scorsese waiting for 26 years.
Scorsese's holiday with the Oscars has a long history, and in 1981, When Scorsese made his first attempt to direct a film with "Raging Bull", he lost to Robert Redford, the "ordinary man" who directed the film for the first time;
Then came "The Last Temptation of Christ" to Barry Levenson of "Rain Man"; and in 1991, impeccable "Good Guys" lost to Kevin Costner of "Dancing with Wolves";
Although the thick and thin "New York Gangster" won the Golden Globe for the old horse, it finally lost to "The Pianist" Roman Polanski at the Oscar; the big "Flying Tycoon" also fell into the limelight, allowing Clint Eastwood to achieve a small slam with "Million Dollar Baby".
So much so that every time Cicoses launched a new film, the world chanted, "It's Martin's turn!" But until February 25, 2007, Cicoses's Oscar resume was a blank.
In fact, as early as when "Taxi Driver" received four Oscar nominations but did not have a director's share, Scorsese had already predicted a tragic fate with the Oscars.
Both "Raging Bull" and "Good Guys" are permeated with Sikosses' unique personal style, the pinnacle of his directorial career, but because Sikoses ran counter to Oscar values, he lost the opportunity to win.
Scorsese has always been fond of "frustrated endings", and although he is also performing the duties of a "dreamer", he has always been obsessed with showing the other side of the American dream - loss and confusion, so he is not welcomed by the oscars who like to be positive, which is also an inevitable result.
Unexpectedly, what made him win the award for the first time was a remake, although "Infernal Walker" retained the rough picture style unique to Scorsese, but there was also a compromise between the director and the commercial elements.
For more than a decade, Martin Sr. was nominated for an Oscar for Best Director for Hugo, The Wolf of Wall Street and The Irishman, but to no avail, but at least it would not be called the uncrowned king.
