I often see him perform, and over the years I’ve gotten to know the depth of his musical inspirations. After seeing his show at the Café Carlyle, I knew I had to film it because it was so extraordinary to see the evolution of his life and his musical talent in such an intimate setting.
For me, the show captured the true emotional potential of a live music experience.”The documentary is executive produced by Scorsese and Sikelia Productions, alongside Brian Glazer and Ron Howard at Imagine Documentaries.Personality Crisis: One Night Only is released April 14 on Showtime in the US.This marks Scorsese’s 17th documentary feature, with his past works including George Harrison: Living In The Material World and Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story.The director’s next feature film is Killers Of The Flower Moon starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, set to be released.
