And that's where we come in.

Sharon Stone Reveals Why She Was 'Furious' With 'Casino' Co-Star Robert De Niro

Sharon Stone Reveals Why She Was 'Furious' With 'Casino' Co-Star Robert De Niro originally appeared on Parade. Sharon Stone has worked with several iconic actors over the years, and she recently looked back on filming Casino with Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci. "Joey really, really fought for me to be seen and get the job. So I have a serious loyalty to Joey because he's always backed me," Stone, 67, told Business Insider about Pesci, 82. "It was always Joey and Jimmy Caan. They backed me since I was 19." When it came to working with De Niro, 81, Stone said that she "always wanted to work with" him. However, the opportunity didn't present itself until the 1995 film. "I had auditioned with him many times before Casino. It was my dream to work with De Niro and hold my own," she said. Stone was eventually cast as the glamorous and self-involved Ginger McKenna in the Martin Scorsese-directed film, in which her character caught the eye of DeNiro's Sam 'Ace' Rothstein. Parade Daily🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 It turns out that Stone had the opportunity to prove herself as an actress while filming one scene with De Niro. "There's a scene in the movie where we're sitting across a table arguing, and he says to me, 'You're a good actress, you know that?'" she recalled. "And I remember in that scene when he said it, how furious it made me because it was my dream to do it, and then he challenged me at the table." "I remember thinking, 'Oh, buddy. Not today, pal,'" Stone recalled. "He knew every button to go for with me because he is the greatest observational actor. He can crawl under your skin and get in there." Stone certainly proved that she's a capable actor in the role, and she even earned a Best Actress Oscar nomination at the 1996 Academy Awards.

Martin Scorsese Considered Violent Tactic to Steal 'Taxi Driver' From Studio

Martin Scorsese Considered Violent Tactic to Steal 'Taxi Driver' From Studio originally appeared on Parade. Martin Scorsese revealed the surprising lengths he was willing to take to make sure that his version of Taxi Driver was on the final cut. In a first-look clip from the the upcoming five-part Apple TV+ documentary Mr. Scorsese, Scorsese, 82, and friend Steven Spielberg discussed how Columbia Pictures was concerned about some of the bloody content in the movie. The production studio almost even stopped Scorsese's vision from appearing in theaters. "Marty was very upset," Spielberg, 78, said in the beginning of the clip. "I get a call at the office, and he said (imitating Scorsese's hyper New York City accent), 'Steve, Steve, this is Marty. Can you come over to the house.'" Scorsese added, "They wanted me to cut all the blood spurting. They wanted me to cut the guy who loses the hand …" When an interviewer offscreen asked if he had a gun, Scorsese responded, "I was going to get one." The interviewer asked Scorsese what he was "going to do what with the gun," and he admitted that he didn't have a solid plan. Parade Daily🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 "I was angry. I said I was going to threaten them … I'll maybe just shoot or something. I had no idea. I mean, I was just threatening. What I wanted to do, and not with a gun, I would go in, find out where the rough cut is, and break the windows and take it away," Scorsese said. "They were going to destroy the film anyway, you know. So let me destroy it. I'll destroy it. But before destroying it, I'm going to steal it." He continued, "Spielberg said, 'Marty, stop that. Marty you can't do that.' I said… The more they said no, the more I said I was going to do it." Spielberg then shared that someone came up with a plan to "mollify" the MPAA [Motion Picture Association of America], in which Scorsese toned down the bloodiness of the offending sequence with the color of the scene. "He just had to take the color red down to a kind of brown," Spielberg explained. Once the 1976 film was released, it was critically acclaimed and was nominated for best picture at the Academy Awards. Additionally, stars Robert De Niro and Jodie Foster earned acting nods.
