Martin Scorsese has had it with obsessions over box office

Martin Scorsese has had it with obsessions over box office numbers in U.S. cinema. He sounded off on the state of moviegoing at the New York Film Festival premiere of his documentary "Personality Crisis: One Night Only."⁠


“Since the ’80s, there’s been a focus on numbers. It’s kind of repulsive. As a filmmaker, and as a person who can’t imagine life without cinema, I always find it really insulting."⁠

He continued, "I’ve always known that such considerations have no place at the New York Film Festival, and here’s the key also with this: There are no awards here. You don’t have to compete. You just have to love cinema here.”⁠
