"Leonardo DiCaprio has said that working with Martin Scorsese is like a &amp;quot;crash course&amp;quot; in cinema. The Departed star, who recently completed filming his fourth movie Shutter Island with the director, has insisted that Scorsese is the most impressive film aficionado that he has ever met. DiCaprio told Total Film magazine: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s like a little cool learning workshop before we start to make the movie. It&amp;#039;s a film course, you get a crash course, like an education. He&amp;#039;s the best teacher. I&amp;#039;m sure that there are professors out there but I would challenge anyone to know as much about movies as him. &amp;quot;I would see Marty up there against anyone in the world as far as film knowledge is concerned because it&amp;#039;s weird. He knows not only the film but the editor and second assistant director of an obscure French film. It&amp;#039;s weird because that&amp;#039;s what he does, that&amp;#039;s all he does, that&amp;#039;s who he is. He&amp;#039;s a man of film.&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;We watch a lot of films for lighting and mood tone, a lot of obscure movies.  &amp;quot;I remember for The Aviator we watched House of Wax just for the dialogue because Marty remembered the dialogue in that movie was really snappy.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
