I Smell Oscar

Could this be Martin Scorsese’s year to win that elusive Oscar gold?

The AFI certainly seems to be pulling for him. In acknowldgement of this American master’s great body of work the AFI Silver will begin a retrospective of his major films today.

All The Rage: The Films of Martin Scorsese will run through March.

I’m a big Marty fan, and looking at this schedule I could in theory watch Raging Bull, Taxi Driver and Mean Streets in a row on Saturday. But then I’d probably end up killing someone on the Metro ride home, so maybe I’d better space them out over the month.
