Martin Scorsese, in Berlin to receive a lifetime achievement award from the city’s film festival weeks before his latest movie, "Killers of the Flower Moon," will be competing at the Oscars with 10 nominations, is already planning his next project.

在以榮獲十項提名的新片「花月殺手」角逐奧斯卡獎的幾週之前，馬丁．史柯西斯獲頒柏林城市影展終生成就獎。他也已經在籌備下個階段的計畫。

The director, who as a young man considered a priestly vocation before becoming cinema’s most famous maker of gangster movies, said that after some meetings with Pope Francis he was mulling ways of making a film on Jesus, although the project’s contours were not yet clear.

成為最具名望的幫派電影製作人之前，這名導演年輕時曾考慮從事神職。他提到，在與教宗方濟各的幾次會面後，製作耶穌電影的方向油然而生，不過計畫的輪廓尚未明朗。

"(The Pope) called at one point at a meeting for fresher ways of thinking about the essentials of Christianity," the 81-year-old filmmaker told a news conference. "I want to make something unique and different that could be thought-provoking."

這位81歲的製片人在新聞發布會上表示，「（教宗）在會面中的一個環節呼籲以更新穎的方式思考基督教的本質」、「我想製作能夠激發思考的與眾不同之作」。

Such a project would be his second look at the foundations of Christianity after 1988’s "The Last Temptation of Christ".

這樣的計畫會是他繼1988年「基督的最後誘惑」後第二次探尋基督教的根基。
