Why hasn’t Martin Scorsese spoken about Andrei Tarkovsky?

It’s odd when I go through Scorsese interviews and he never mentions him even though one time, when highlighting Russian cinema, he mentions Sergei Eisenstein and two other Russian directors (I forgot their names) while talking about Touki Bouki. Tarkovsky’s name is not said by Martin there and other places of time. I don’t know if I’m not looking deeper but again, it’s weird since Tarkovsky is considered one of the greatest filmmakers of all time as well as being on the level of guys such as Fellini, Kurosawa, and more.

The Tales of Hoffmann (1951) directed by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger.

To me, this may be among the greatest films ever made. The use of color, cinematography, choreography, and music itself are angelic. Don’t forget the singing and dancing! And I believe that this is Powell and Pressburger’s magnum opus due to these factors, the film is that good and it is only around 133 minutes. Watch this if you haven’t!
