At the Venezia awards press conference, Martin McDonagh, who just won the screenplay prize that is best, was asked about whether films should be responsible on social and political issues. This was his response:
“Cinema has a responsibility to discuss everything. Maybe there should be less films that are marvel cinemas.”
You just knew I happened to be likely to pull“the list out.”
Over these last years that are few I’ve been updating a listing of all of the filmmakers that have publicly criticized Marvel movies. We are able to now add Martin McDonagh’s name for this very list that is impressive includes Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Denis Villeneuve, Bong Joon-ho, Lucrecia Martel, David Cronenberg, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, David Fincher, Paul Verehoeven, Terry Gilliam, Ridley Scott, Jane Campion, James Mangold, Luc Besson, William Friedkin, Ken Loach, and John Woo
