“…not necessarily on the business side but certainly [in terms of] the art.” — Martin Scorsese speaking last night at the 60th New York Film Festival.
Marty didn’t point the finger of blame, but if he had who would have been the recipient? You know who. We all know who.
Not any one group of filmmakers or producers or distributors, but the under-40 couch potatoes…Millennials, Zoomers…the easy-streaming content generation. The ones most responsible for the abandoning and closing of movie theatres. Be honest…who else can be blamed as squarely?
Powerful words on the state of cinema by Martin Scorsese at his and @thenyff’s 60th! #nyff60 @FilmLinc pic.twitter.com/T37HcNMQDl
