Exhibitions

Martin Scorsese

From 10 Jan 2013 to 11 May 2013

11 Jan-12 May. Berlin's Deutsche Kinemathek film museum pays homage to the veteran American movie director Martin Scorsese with a major exhibition that examines his life and working methods.

The show traces Scorsese's sources of inspiration and how his movies, in many ways, have come to characterise modern American cinema.

Considered one of the world's greatest directors, his films are frequently set in New York city, specifically in Little Italy where he grew up.

Likewise Scorsese has a "family" of actors, chief of whom is his old friend Robert De Niro, and he is famous for directing films such as Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas.

The exhibition also acknowledges Scorsese’s efforts towards preserving the world's film heritage for future generations.

This year’s Berlin film festival takes place from 7-17 February.

10.00-18.00. Thurs 10.00-20.00. Mon closed.
