Documentary filmmaker Rebecca Miller has formed a deep connection with renowned director Martin Scorsese for her latest project, the five-part Apple TV documentary "Mr. Scorsese." This connection began with Miller's husband, Daniel Day-Lewis, being one of Scorsese's cinematic inspirations. However, getting Scorsese to open up about his life and career was not an easy task for Miller. It required some time and patience to delve into the director's inner world.

The Covid-19 pandemic provided Miller with the opportunity to spend more time with Scorsese. Like many people during the pandemic, Scorsese paused, creating an opportunity for the documentary to come to life. During this time, Miller developed a deeper understanding of Scorsese's life and better grasped his impact on the world of cinema. The documentary offers viewers an intimate look at both Scorsese's career and his personal life.

"Mr. Scorsese" goes beyond being just a documentary; it allows viewers to explore the famous director's thought process and creative journey. Miller's efforts in this project further deepen Scorsese's passion for cinema and their relationship. This documentary stands out as a must-see for both cinema enthusiasts and Scorsese fans.
