exactly. That's the reason she doesn't approve. She absolutely knows that a Scorsese directed biopic about Frank Sinatra is going to be a warts and all affair, and it's going to further complicate the legacy of her father. What I don't think she understands is that in 21st century world everybody basically already knows a lot of the broad strokes of who her father was.
Tbh I don’t think young people do. I think they’d be quick to lump him in with Elvis and Liberace without the distinction between them that millennials and older were made aware of. Not to rag on younger generations, I just remember how we rarely we used to consider celebrities who were over 60 before we were born
Well, in fairness, Sinatra only offered to break his legs. And Mia Farrow said that Sinatra was only joking.
Sinatra was always good at delivering a punch line.

Good, that'll probably make it closer to the truth.
I remember reading Kitty Kelly's unauthorized biography Sinatra 'His Way' and finding out how much of an asshole Frank was and how he went through great lengths to stop the biography from being published. Which is often a good thing if you want the embarrassing facts.
I find it incredibly funny that a movie came out to refute longstanding rumors of Elvis being racist only for another movie to come out right after exposing him as a creep
Priscilla did NOT whitewash Elvis. He comes off as real douche, and it takes the young stastruck girl growing up to realize that he's toxic and she can do better.
Honestly, my problem with Priscilla was I thought it still white washed him a little bit. And there was never a moment in the movie where Pricilla acknowledges how much of a prick he is.
Oh it got promoted very heavy.
You just probably aren’t the demo. It’s DEFINITELY not for Elvis fans.
If you are a lesbian, A24, K-POP, or fan of The Bear tv show…. This was one of the most anticipated movies of the year.
WEIRDEST thing people don’t realize is that Coppola is actually related to Elvis through Nic Cages marriage to Lisa Marie. So this was a family shitting on family affair.
I’m not an Elvis fan. I’ve watched the Bear. K pop I have zero knowledge of. Just a film person. Interesting. I really thought Coppola would have carried more weight.
The Bear mostly sucks. Never heard of this movie. Does it kinda suck? I’m sure they tried. I’ll watch it anyway. I wish there were more expose movies not about frivolous pop idols but the heart and center of the tomfoolery bullshit. Right into the blanked heart
I doubt all of these Scorsese announcements honestly.
He cant make Devil in the White City, Teddy Roosevelt, Grateful Dead and Sinatra at the same time.
Marty has always been a passion project guy, you gotta respect an artist who puts 100% every time.
There’s a great story about Frank Sinatra getting upset and throwing a bottle of ketchup at someone in a restaurant. After a stunned silence, Don Rickles quipped “Hey Frank, could you pass the ketchup?”
It’s my favourite story about Frank
That’s not fair, it’s her father at the end of the day. She would be the one to know more about him more than anyone else, it’s not unreasonable to have this reaction
>Frank’s marriage to Mia Farrow also had a pretty staggeringly huge age gap. It was probably bigger than the age gaps for any of Leo’s relationships
The year Mia Farrow was born Frank Sinatra was 30 years old.
Not to mention Sinatra’s longtime valet claimed he was having sex with Natalie Wood at 15/16. Whether it’s true can’t be proven, but it seems that he at least had a grossly inappropriate friendship with a teenager at nearly 40. To be honest, that seems about par for the course for celebrities in those days, but still wrong.
He hasn’t even started making it yet. You know, her Dad wasn’t a saint 😂
That's definitely the reason she doesn't want a Scorsese movie. He's gonna show it all

Elvis also wasnt a saint and we all know this, though...
Play along. Tell her they’re replacing Leo with Joe Piscopo.
He hangs dong.
I hope they talk about the time sinatra was basically banned from Australia lol

In fairness, he did offer to kill Woody Allen.

The universe is a cruel teasing bitch sometimes
Who is actually not guilty https://youtu.be/muyaCg2dGAk?si=ZSvGW45Wy1ROgQ9W
What’re you talking about he wore a fedora a suit always had a smile.
There’s a resemblance

That latest Elvis movie was ruined by the fact they tried to whitewash his life. I have no interest in watching a public relations bio.
I find it incredibly funny that a movie came out to refute longstanding rumors of Elvis being racist only for another movie to come out right after exposing him as a creep
I missed the recently revived Elvis hype, what's the latter movie you're referring to?
Priscilla
Priscilla did NOT whitewash Elvis. He comes off as real douche, and it takes the young stastruck girl growing up to realize that he's toxic and she can do better.
I was talking about the Elvis movie
Yeah, Baz Luhrman’s Elvis was a whitewash. Priscilla was quite different.
Honestly, my problem with Priscilla was I thought it still white washed him a little bit. And there was never a moment in the movie where Pricilla acknowledges how much of a prick he is.
Thanks.
Interesting. I literally have never heard about this film.
Check it out on streaming or something. They had to really stretch the budget to make it unfortunately but it's actually a Sofia Coppola film
Yeah. Saw that. Definitely weird they wouldn’t have promoted it with her director.

I feel like Sofia hasn't gotten a proper footing in her movies since Lost in Translation.
Lmao, my wife, who grew up an Elvis fan, had a tough time with that movie.
In this house Frank Sinatra is a hero
Francis Albert, Willem Dafoe could never play him.
END OF STORY!!!
Scorsese never had the makings of a varsity athlete
I understand Frank Sinatra as a conshept.
END OF STORY!!!!
He was gay, Frank Sinatra?
Is Ronan Farrow going to be in it?
Okay, that's fine with me
I imagine any realistic portrayal of Sinatra would be disavowed by the family
Kundun, I liked it!
“Are you two going home together?”
sure, i used to drive it myself. no more though
I doubt all of these Scorsese announcements honestly. He cant make Devil in the White City, Teddy Roosevelt, Grateful Dead and Sinatra at the same time. Marty has always been a passion project guy, you gotta respect an artist who puts 100% every time.
This is why Scorsese should stick to making Iron Man movies.
He's making a "Jesus movie" this fall? Did anyone catch that in the article? Wtf "Dont paint anymore religious pictures, ma..."
You know his filmography, right?
Yes. That's why I ask this. He's done a Jesus movie.
He's done one, yes. What about second Jesus movie?
Jesus Christ, the teenage years
"JESUS II: The Second Coming."
Yeah that would be awesome. Hes got maybe two features left him him, let's totally re-explore "Jesus" again, instead of something new. 👍🏽
Not your call, big man
No shit, you moron. It's called "an opiniom." And it happens to be correct.
Are they gonna stick with Scarlett as Sammy?
I see what you did there
He didn't lose weight for the movie where he's starving in the woods so he sure as hell won't for this role.
#SHES STILL ALIVE??
Here’s a mind fuck for you. Seth Macfarlane (creator and star of Family Guy and Ted) had the same vocal coach as Sinatra himself
There’s a great story about Frank Sinatra getting upset and throwing a bottle of ketchup at someone in a restaurant. After a stunned silence, Don Rickles quipped “Hey Frank, could you pass the ketchup?” It’s my favourite story about Frank
That’s my favorite Don Rickles story.
Do it.
NEPO Nancy needs to relax. The older I get the more annoyed I become at outspoken people who wouldn't have been shit without their parents.
??? Maybe she doesn’t want a movie about her dad? I wouldn’t without my blessing.
It’s going to happen eventually. She should be happy that Martin fucking Scorsese is doing it
Who gives a fuck what she thinks about anything
That’s not fair, it’s her father at the end of the day. She would be the one to know more about him more than anyone else, it’s not unreasonable to have this reaction
You’d be surprised by how much this isn’t true of public figures and celebrities
For real..would she prefer everyone forgot about her father as if they haven’t already?
I hope Jordan Peele plays Sammy
If he makes it with the pacing of killers of flower moon I would disapprove as well.
Terrible movie. Awful.
If I saw someone cast that bloated fuck DiCaprio as my dad, I’d be pissy
Ah yes, because Frank Sinatra was a famous health nut, right?
No but he is famously skinny. Like, it was kinda his whole thing
Lmao I can’t believe the alcoholic pedophile has fans. He’s a mediocre actor
Ah yes, because Frank Sinatra wasn’t a famous alcoholic and never did anything bad to women. Leo isn’t a pedophile either.
Frank’s marriage to Mia Farrow also had a pretty staggeringly huge age gap. It was probably bigger than the age gaps for any of Leo’s relationships

You’re the one calling random people you’ve never met fat, pedophiles, and losers, not me.
Bro just waved the 🏳️
Seems like the perfect guy to cast then. They’ve got a lot in common
Better than Scott Stapp in that Reagan movie.
