Martin Scorsese’s home is as much a museum of cinematic history as it is a residence, as revealed in a new TikTok video by his daughter Francesca Scorsese. 

“We're movie lovers; of course we have film posters all over our house,” Francesca begins, navigating a hallway adorned with classic film posters like 1947's 'The Paradine Case' and 1941's 'The Shanghai Gesture.' 

The video also captures a candid moment of Scorsese directing his daughter to perfect her presentation. "Do it again," he instructs from off-camera, "Do that again, it has to have more — you know, you're proud of these posters."

The famed director himself makes an appearance, showcasing items such as vintage film cameras and a director’s chair bearing his name. He also mentions a notable absentee from their collection, the red ballet slippers from 'The Red Shoes,' currently loaned out to the BFI in London for their exhibit celebrating the film’s 75th anniversary, "The Red Shoes: Beyond the Mirror."

The video ends on a playful note with Francesca claiming it's "impossible to choose a favorite film director," only to reveal her wearing a T-shirt with her father's sketched face.

The Scorseses have grown their TikTok presence significantly, engaging fans with their unique blend of cinematic reverence and personal insight, even landing them a spot in a Super Bowl commercial for SquareSpace.
