In this 1990
interview, Martin Scorsese talks about the future of movies and how he hopes, one day, one of his movies will make a lot of money. I was curious to see if any had so I looked up the box office of his films. Using $100 million as an arbitrary measure for success, only three of his movies have been commercially successful.
- The Departed: $132,384,315
- Shutter Island: $128,012,934
- The Aviator: $102,610,330
- Cape Fear: $79,091,969
- Gangs of New York: $77,812,000
- Hugo: $73,864,507
- The Color of Money: $52,293,982
- Goodfellas: $46,836,214
- Casino: $42,512,375
- The Age of Innocence: $32,255,440
Does the result surprise you? Does it matter?
