His debut directorial film, Who's That Knocking at My Door (1967) was admitted in the Chicago Film Festival. Scorsese was a prominent person in the New Hollywood era of the 1970s and the 1980s. Scorsese's films are heavily inspired by his Italian-American background and his New York City childhood. They feature insecure macho men and explore the concept of machismo and crime as in the context of Catholic notions of guilt, redemption, and guilt. His signature styles feature a lot of freeze and slow motion frames, graphic depictions of violent violence, and extensive use of profanity.His 1973 crime film Mean Streets, dealing with violence and machismo, as well as exploring Catholic notions of redemption and guilt, was a blueprint for his filmmaking style. Scorsese has won Cannes' Palme d'Or with Taxi Driver (1976), a psychological thriller starring Robert De Niro. He was later associated with Scorsese through eight more films, including New York, New York (1977), Raging Bull (1980), The King of Comedy (1982), Goodfellas (90) and Casino (1995). Scorsese was a star of the 2000s and 2010s and was able to enjoy praise from critics and box office success due to a number of collaborations with Leonardo DiCaprio. The films included Gangs of New York (2002, The Aviator (2004) and The Departed (2006). Shutter Island (2010) and The Wolf of Wall Street (2012) are only a few. In his return to his usual territory of crime films, Scorsese collaborated with De Niro again for The Irishman (2019). Other films by Scorsese include the dark comedy After Hours (1985), the romantic drama The Age of Innocence (1993) and the children's television series
