Episode 18: American Boy: A Profile of Steven Prince

from Let's Party with Marty: A Martin Scorsese Podcast · host Let's Party with Marty: A Martin Scorsese Podcast

This week Sarah and MJ discuss another Martin Scorsese documentary, 1978's American Boy: A Profile of Steven Prince. The companion film may have been The Joker is Wild, but this doc also shares a lot of similarities with – and the spirit of – Shirley Clarke's Portrait of Jason. We talk about whether we can believe all of Prince's tall tales (and if that matters), and Scorsese's unique approach to documentary filmmaking.
