Adam Scott on Scorsese's directing method
Last question. What was it like working with Scorsese in The Aviator. Was that amazing for you? Oh yeah, I would shit my pants every day! I got it, and then all of a sudden I�m in a room with he and DiCaprio in Canada, rehearsing. And I�m just like, what the fuck is going on? And was it weird taking direction from a such a legend of cinema? I think he�s well aware of how much he freaks people out because of who he is, so he has this way of directing that causes a particular panic in me. But when we were on set, he would soothe me with these cool stories, and then throw in a little direction at the end. I wouldn�t even realize he was directing me until I got back to the hotel room that night. He�s fine-tuning your performance without you even knowing. He�s a magician, and he�s really sweet. I�ll never forget a single detail of that whole experience. http://www.blackbookmag.com/article/adam-scott/3379/
