Martin Scorsese is one of the greatest directors of all time. Most recently, however, he has also found a large following off the screen in the TikTok videos of his daughter Francesca. In the most recent example, she wants him be teased with an invisible flea circus. But the Hollywood legend reacts in an unexpectedly touching and creative way.
Martin Scorsese doesn’t want to be rude to an acrobatic flea on TikTok
Daughter Francesca shows him the acrobatic feats of an imaginary flea in her hand in the video with SpongeBob SquarePants vocal filter. After a few rounds she asks him holding the flea’s imaginary jacket with one’s fingers. When he has to admit shortly afterwards that there is actually nothing in her hand, she puts him to the question “Then why are you still holding onto his jacket?” on the cross.

But his creative reaction should make every fan’s heart beat faster:
Well I wanted don’t be rude by just throwing his jacket away. Oops, she’s already mine [heruntergefallen]. I didn’t care if he was really there or not. I just didn’t want to lose control of the jacket.
Instead of letting the heartfelt prank sit on him, Scorsese just keeps spinning the story. This may not be unusual for some. But the 80-year-old director has been seen willingly jumps on her daughter’s TikTok trends and even expands on the idea, is just touching. And a fine example of his spontaneous creative spirit that has brought so many masterpieces to film history.
The TikTok videos from the living room might shake his status as the untouchable cinema legend, but that’s okay. Social media has managed to do that too sometimes wants to hug his biggest screen heroes like a stuffed animal.
