angielski Martin Scorsese showed us that his family is quite normal, like any other, they just looked into Italy and are willing to talk about themselves on camera. And of course, they have Marty as their son. This documentary about Scorsese's parents is entertaining, nostalgic, and excellently structured, with various emotions and a climax. Scorsese once again shows how great of a storyteller he is, preferring to let his parents speak, while also being very unconventional, being the one literally bursting with laughter. Will you also try to make something with your parents? ()
