The Director

Often in this space, I have written about a permanent A+ list director and his obsession with young children.

There is another permanent A+ list director who is an Oscar winner/nominee who is about to be called out by this A- list mostly movie actress who has been acting for decades and is someone all of you know.

Way back in the day she did a movie with the director.

One movie.

She refused to work with him ever again. Our actress was playing a very se.xual character.

She was underage.

When she was auditioning for the role, the director fondled her and groped her and took lots of photos of her undressed.

He encouraged her to have s.ex with her much much older co-star so they could really get into their respective roles.

He then would ask her about her s.ex life and would often have cameras rolling when he did.

Director: Martin Scorsese

Jodie Foster

Movie: Taxi Driver

Robert De Niro

Jodie Foster Recalls Working with Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese on Taxi Driver as a Kid

In a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Foster reveals how she was cast at 12 after working on another Scorsese film, Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore.

“He called my mom about the part, and she thought he was crazy,” Foster says of the filmmaker. “But I went in to meet him for an interview. My mom thought, with my school uniform on, there was no way he’d think I was right for it. But he said yes, and she trusted him.”

“Part of the deal was that any scenes that felt uncomfortable sexually, they would have an adult be a stand-in,” says Foster. “So my sister Connie, who was over 18, stood in for a couple of over-the-shoulder shots.”

Foster had acted previously, and says that she assumed this film would be like her other jobs, but quickly realized otherwise—not just because of the script’s subject matter but because of the method preparation De Niro preferred.

“Robert De Niro and I had a bunch of outings, where he took me to different diners around town and walked through the script with me,” she says of their character prep. “After the first time, I was completely bored. Robert was pretty socially awkward then and was pretty much in character, which was his process. I think I rolled my eyes at times because he really was awkward. But in those few outings, he really helped me understand improvisation and building a character in a way that was almost nonverbal.” – Source
