Poll: Most Iconic Scene from a Scorsese Movie?
Martin Scorsese is one of the most acclaimed American directors of all time.
His films often explore themes such as Sicilian-American identity, Roman Catholic concepts of guilt and redemption, machismo, modern crime, and gang conflict. Despite this, he has an incredibly varied and accessible filmography that includes a romantic drama, a taut urban cop thriller, an oddball comedy and a religious period film.
Which scene from his movies, as nominated by IMDB's Poll Board Members, do you feel is the most iconic of his filmography?
