I considered it a true cinematic challenge of working with a versatile actor such as Robert De Niro, who moulds himself according to each character. The only other actor who matches his histrionic ability is Al Pacino. -Martin Scorsese

THE A-Z OF MARTIN SCORSESE D - DE NIRO, ROBERT Is it ‘Bobby and Marty’ or ‘Marty and Bobby’? Or just ‘Bobty’? If ever there was a partnership that demands its own portmanteau name it’s this one, but we’re damned if we can pick one. The pair’s eight movies together have offered so many defining moments that it’s impossible to pick just one. Do you plump for Taxi Driver’s mirror monologue? The uncontrollable self-loathing of Raging Bull’s “Hit me!” scene? Jimmy Conway’s Cream-soundtracked fag break in Goodfellas? Rupert Pupkin’s teeth-grindingly painful stand-up routine in The King Of Comedy? Max Cady’s first appearance in Cape Fear, bulging pecs, terrifying tattoos and all? The right answer is, of course, all of the above The middle-class De Niro and the hard-knock Scorsese grew up on the same side of town, but different side of the tracks: their paths didn’t cross until a New York dinner party at the home of actress Verna Bloom. “Although they were poles apart”, writes Peter Biskind in Easy Riders Raging Bulls, “each wanted what the other had, and they hit it off immediately.” Read more at Empire Online
