Sydney Sweeney, with her immense talent, has managed to make a huge name for herself in the industry. What started with minor roles soon transformed into the actress helming major movies in Hollywood. While she has worked with several leading men in the industry, she also has a specific director in mind that she would definitely love to collaborate with.
So much so that she even described the same as her absolute dream. The director in question is the legendary Martin Scorsese, who despite his iconic movies has constantly found himself in hot waters for his portrayal of women.
Working With Martin Scorsese Might Not Be the Best Idea for Sydney Sweeney
In the history of cinema, only a few directors have left an indelible mark with several record-breaking and highly acclaimed movies. In this,Martin Scorsesewould definitely stand the tallest, with his movies bagging as many as21 Oscars. While it’s still a dream for many to work with the legendary director, his cinematic vision has also beencriticizedseveral times.
More so, fans brought forth a rather concerned emotion when Sydney Sweeney detailed in an interview shared via cinesthetic on X, that working with Scorsese is“her absolute dream.”

Much of the contentious remarks, the director had on his way was due to the portrayal of women in his movies. There’s no denying that his movies are cinematic masterpieces. However, the female characters in the same lack depth and are portrayed to be far shallower than their male counterparts.
For instance,The Wolf of Wall Street, which was nominated for five Oscars in 2013, had a brilliant talent like Cristin Milioti in it. But she barely had any screen time or lines in the picture, even Margot Robbie was presented more like a trophy rather than a character. When the same criticism was raised in front of Martin Scorsese, his reaction shocked many.

It was shocking as the director completely dismissed the question by adding that his movies do havefemale-centric roles if“a story calls for a female lead.”After this, he changed the topic to other issues and avoided talking any further on the same.
