Martin Scorsese’s 5 Biggest Box Office Hits Have 1 Thing In Common

Martin Scorsese is not necessarily known for making massive box office hits, but his five highest-grossing movies all have the same thing in common. The legendary director has made 27 movies over the span of a career that has exceeded 50 years of filmmaking. Through it all, Scorsese’s movies have remained incredibly celebrated thanks to his genius and craftsmanship, resulting in several Oscar nominations and one win for directing The Departed. While his movies might be consistent awards contenders, the success he’s experienced at the box office is a bit more irregular and uncommon.
