He is a recipient of the AFI Life Achievement Award for his contributions to the cinema, and has won an Academy Award, a Palme d'Or, Grammy Award, Emmys, Golden Globes, BAFTAs, and DGA Awards. ...Scorsese is hailed as one of the most significant and influential filmmakers of all time...Among Scorsese's credits we find such landmark films as Mean Streets (1973), Taxi Driver (1976), Raging Bull (1980), Goodfellas (1990), and The Departed (2006). As a result of his excellent work, Scorsese has many followers and fans. Now that Martin Scorsese has named Dean Martin's performance in Rio Bravo as one a great cinematic moment of guts and glory, perhaps even more people will join the ever-increasing numbers of admirers of our Dino:
Howard Hawks’s Western is a tense standoff between John Wayne’s sheriff and the gang trying to spring murderer Claude Akins from his jail, but it’s also a wonderful film about friendship and redemption. Dean Martin gives an extremely soulful performance as Wayne’s drunken deputy, and there’s a great moment when he almost gives in to the pressure of the situation and the physical discomfort of alcohol withdrawal before he empties the whiskey he’s poured back into the bottle.High words of praise, the kind of praise that our Dino richly deserves! Below is the Rio Bravo film clip included in the online edition of Newsweek:

I've always wondered why our Dino didn't get an Academy Award nomination for his role as Dude in Rio Bravo. He deserved at least a nomination for that sterling performance!
Not that the King of Cool needed such an honor. He was clearly very secure in his own skin.
In many ways, our Dino is now more appreciated as a fine actor since his departure from this life. That appreciation does gladden my heart!
Hey pallie, likes Miss AOW, gotta say that I agrees with everythin' you have said. Indeed our Dino has received much more of his deserved acclaim in every aspect of his career since his departure from the planet. And, likes I am totally totally humbled that ilovedinomartin has placed a very small part in gettin' the life, times, and teachin's of our Dino out to the masses. Keeps lovin' our Dino!
