But its his work with Scorsese that stands out.
We started working together in the 80s, during a low ebb in my career.
And it was Michael who really gave me back my sense of excitement in making movies.

For him, nothing was impossible.
If we were running out of time and light, he would figure out a way to work faster.
He was a great artist.
He was also a precious and irreplaceable friend, and this is a great loss for me.
It helped a lot because he was not an easy director.
He always cracked the whip to be fast and not to spend too much time.
So I learned to be fast and still tried to be good.
That was a big help later when I started shooting in the States.
His final screen credit is listed as the 2013 drama3096 Days.
