If you loved Lily Gladstone in Assassin’s Creed, here are 5 of the most iconic characters in Scorsese’s films.

In “Killers of the Flower Moon” Martin Scorsese offered a strong female role to the actress Lily Gladstone, who radiates this fresco with her talent. Moreover, the actress almost gave up everything and missed the role of her life before the director called her for casting! Fortunately, Lily was hired by a film director, and her performance in Molly’s costume delighted audiences and critics alike.

So the actress plays this young Native American woman from the Osage community who is about to marry Ernest, played by DiCaprio. Molly will have to fight for her tribe, the victim of a series of gruesome murders. The role could earn her an Oscar nomination, given that Paramount and Apple have decided to present Best Actress Lily Gladstone at the next ceremony.

If the artist is well-chosen, it will be a historic nomination. Born in Browning, Montana, Lily Gladstone has Native American ancestry including the Nimipuu and Pikunis tribes and lived on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. She would then be the first Indian-American actress to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress.

If Lily Gladstone wins, she will add her name to the list of great actresses who have won the coveted statue for Scorsese’s role. Contrary to popular belief, the director created fabulous female roles throughout his career. To prove this, we offer to focus on 5 outstanding women of the American maestro’s cinema.

Ellen Burstyn Alice is not here anymore

In 1975, Martin Scorsese directed Alice Isn’t Here Anymore, starring Ellen Boorstyn. The story follows Alice Hutt, a young woman living in Socorro, New Mexico. 35 years old, he is unhappily married. Her husband Donald, a truck driver, is indifferent to her and angry with their ten-year-old son, Tom.

When her husband dies in a car accident, Alice’s life takes a new turn. She then sets off with her son to pursue her little girl’s dream of becoming a singer in Monterey, California. But he faces some disappointment, especially in Phoenix.

Ellen Boorstyn, who wanted a role as a “real woman” after the grueling filming of The Exorcist, was seduced by Robert Getchell’s script. He then encouraged Warner Studios to produce the film and wanted to hire a young Martin Scorsese after loving Mean Streets. This very avant-garde performance of Alice won her an Oscar for Best Actress in 1975.

Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver

We’re no longer presenting Taxi Driver, Scorsese’s masterpiece with Robert De Niro at the Palme d’Or in Cannes in 1976. If the actor shines on the screen in Travis Bickle’s costume, it’s 14-year-old young actress Jodie Foster who steals the show.

The talented actor literally explodes the film; She exposes herself to the general public thanks to the character of Iris, a prostitute who controls the sport, a pimp played by Harvey Keitel. Jody will be nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.

Cate Blanchett in The Aviator

After Ellen Burstyn, it’s Cate Blanchett’s turn to win an Oscar for her role as Martin Scorsese. In Aviator, the actress is absolutely stunning as the fierce and sassy Katharine Hepburn, the companion of billionaire Howard Hughes (Leonardo DiCaprio). In 2005, Kate won the statuette for Best Supporting Actress.

The Aviator covers nearly twenty years of the tumultuous life of this industrialist, daredevil, civil aviation pioneer, inventor, producer, director, studio executive and insatiable temptress. This eccentric and flamboyant adventurer became a leader in the aerospace industry, as well as a legendary figure, shrouded in glamor and mystery.

Sharon Stone in Casino

A monumental mural surrounding the Las Vegas underworld, Casino is often cited as one of the greatest films in film history. If Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci give a phenomenal performance, a young actress stands in front of them and shines in each of their scenes: Sharon Stone.

The actress plays Ginger, the wife of Las Vegas big boss Ace Rothstein (De Niro). Her intense and action-packed performance won her a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama. She also received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress in 1996. The artist was a favorite, but Susan Sarandon was nominated for her role in The Last Walk.

Margot Robbie in The Wolf of Wall Street

In 2013, the whole world discovered a diamond in the rough in The Wolf of Wall Street, Margot Robbie! In the volcanic incarnation of Naomi, the young woman blows up everything in her path, setting herself up against the superstar Leonardo DiCaprio. The latter plays Jordan Belfort, a long-toothed trader who made his fortune in finance thanks to fraud.

10 years after The Wolf of Wall Street, Margot Robbie became a world star. Suicide Squad, I, Tonya, Scandal, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood or Babylon, the 33-year-old actor has conquered the whole world. This year it was Greta Gerwig’s hit with Barbie. Grossing $1.44 billion, the feature film became the biggest international hit of the year ahead of Super Mario Bros.

To this list of memorable characters we could add other great female figures, such as Barbara Hershey in Boxcar Bertha or The Last Temptation of Christ, Liza Minnelli in New York, New York, Rosanna Arquette in The Hours, Michelle Pfeiffer in Innocence or Lorraine Bracco in Goodfellas in
