Fascinating Video Examines Martin Scorsese's Use of Silence

When you think Martin Scorsese tropes and tricks, you probably go to music, maybe the presence of a strong anti-hero, New York or eyebrows. But Tony Zhou of Every Frame a Painting has put together this video highlighting Scorsese’s perfect use of silence and a master class on how to use silence as a narrative gut punch, not an overused crutch.

Also, the Man of Steel silent hug nonsense is now just another new reason I fucking hate that stupid dipshit movie.
