After 25 years of constant back and forth developing and then sidetracking, acclaimed director Martin Scorsese finally made his passion project, Silence, based on the 1966 novel by Shusaku Endo. Unfortunately, this film flew under the radar for most moviegoers. The film stayed in theaters for a month and had a small wide release. Low box office numbers plus being snubbed at the Academy Awards begs the question is this passion project a quarter of a century in the making rightly relegated to the bottom shelf or is this a modern masterpiece of cinema? Join Corbin and Allen as they discuss Silence.
