Martin Scorsese & Robert De Niro to Reunite for Mob Movie - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

BERLIN (Reuters) - Martin Scorsese is keen to revive a cinematic partnership with Robert De Niro that goes back to "Mean Streets" nearly 40 years ago and says the project will be related to the mobster world.

The 67-year-old movie maker was at the Berlin film festival for the premiere Saturday of his latest picture "Shutter Island," his fourth collaboration with Leonardo DiCaprio.

"Bob De Niro (and I) are talking about something that has to do with that world," Scorsese told reporters after a press screening of Shutter Island, where the audience reaction was decidedly muted.

"There's no doubt about that. We're working on something like that, but it's from the vantage point of older men looking back, none of this running around stuff."

Rumors that Scorsese may be reviving one of film's most successful collaborations have been rife for years, as fans look back with nostalgia to classics such as "Raging Bull," "Taxi Driver" and "Cape Fear."

The Hollywood heavyweights last worked together on "Casino" in 1995.

Deniro is good at doing gangsta flicks and i wanna see it if it comes out. Martin Scorsese does great gangsta movies. The Departed which was his last action flick was really good.

Yes, something clicks when Scorcese and De Niro get together, especially on mobster movies. "Goodfellas" was a classic and "Casino" was great, too.

Just get Joe Pesci and it will be complete.
