Martin Scorsese appeared in a TikTok video with his daughter Francesca Scorsese, where he tried to match snarky Letterboxd one-liner reviews to his own films. The game involved Francesca reading quirky reviews aloud while Scorsese guessed which movie was being described.
“Chat, do I need therapy for being SO attracted to De Niro in this?”
The director immediately recognized the review as referring to Cape Fear, surprising his daughter. Francesca asked, “How did you get that?!” to which he simply shrugged.
Francesca captioned the video:
“He taught me cinema, I taught him Letterboxd.”
The TikTok was created in partnership with Apple TV+ to promote the recent five-part documentary series Mr. Scorsese, which explores the filmmaker's illustrious career.
It's not the first time Martin Scorsese has appeared in his daughter's social media posts. Francesca, 25, often features him in charming videos, such as a Halloween clip where they joined the “Beez in the Trap” trend — with Scorsese giving a serious look while Francesca dressed as the Kool-Aid Man.
Martin Scorsese’s playful TikTok with Francesca reveals his sharp memory of his filmography and highlights their endearing bond shared through cinema and social media.
