In 1974, Martin Scorsese presented 'Italianamerican,' a documentary featuring his parents discussing their Sicilian heritage, home life, and journey to America. The film showcases a sense of intimacy and familial roots.
Scorsese's decision to feature his parents in 'Italianamerican' can be viewed as turning them into content, a tradition now being continued by his daughter Francesca on TikTok.
The documentary emphasizes the worthiness of portraying ordinary individuals, like Scorsese's parents, with the same closeness and respect as Hollywood stars, showcasing an intimate and grounding perspective.
