Hollywood's most caffeinated octogenarian refuses to take the hint that retirement exists, still cranking out three-hour epics about morally complicated men doing terrible things to each other. The mastermind behind *Goodfellas*, *Taxi Driver*, and *The Departed* has spent five decades making cinema that your film school friend won't shut up about—and honestly, they're right. At 83, Scorsese's eyebrows remain as expressive as ever, though one wonders if all those decades of chain-smoking and mob movie stress have taken their toll behind the scenes.
