Sažetak
The main goal of this thesis is to examine Martin Scorsese’s mature vision of making gangster films by analysing his latest film from 2019, The Irishman, in the light of his 1990 gangster classic Goodfellas. The analysis will be based on film theory and on the fundamentals of one of the most influential cinema movements from which the term auteur derived from, the French New Wave. The history behind the notion of an auteur will be further examined before moving onto Scorsese, who is considered to be one of the greatest directors and auteurs of all time. I will illustrate Scorsese as an auteur by reviewing his body of work and all that comes with it ; his background, his love for filmmaking, recurring characteristics in his films etc. Finally, by observing various scenes, techniques, depictions of the mob life and ways of storytelling, I will portray The Irishman as Scorsese's matured revision and reflection of one of the greatest gangster films of all time, Goodfellas.
