Martin Scorsese responds to breach of contract lawsuit

Martin Scorsese

Yesterday the news was released that the film producer Vittorio Cecchi Gori had filed a lawsuit against Martin Scorsese for breach of contract, since for more than two decades both had agreed to carry out the project of the film "Silence" .

Martin Scorsese promised to pay a sum of money for the tapes that he shot before the film that they were going to make together, but Cecchi Gori denies having received the money for the filming of "The Invention of Hugo."

In addition, the producer alleges that the director had to begin filming the film after his last film and yet he has started with "The Wolf of Wall Street."

Martin Scorsese's representatives have stated about this lawsuit: "We are dismayed that the lawyers of Cecchi Gori Pictures are presenting a case with such absurd intentions considering the friendly relationship between Martin Scorsese and the bosses of Cecchi Gori pictures."

The director and those around him believe that the alleged lawsuit filed by Cecchi Gori productions is nothing more than a publicity tactic: 'That the lawsuit was filed on the very day that Mr. Scorsese begins filming a new film has all the appearance of being a publicity action '

Everyone hopes this ends amicably. "Mr. Scorsese is confident that the court will agree with him if CG Pictures really insists on carrying out this dishonorable act.", comment the representatives of the filmmaker.
