Be Martin Scorsese's friend (and watch a clip of 'Shine a Light')

Martinscorsese_l Martin Scorsese says he doesn't go online or have an email address, but he somehow managed to join MySpace to promote his new Rolling Stones documentary, Shine a Light (in theaters April 4). He already has more friends than you do. I checked. So did my colleague Adrienne Day, who reports "celeb hopping" her way from Scorsese, to Tom Hanks, to Lance Bass, to Tiffany (!). (That exclamation point was Adrienne's, not mine. Although I do love that I just wrote a sentence with Scorsese and Tiffany in it. First time in the history of the world?)

The real reason to visit Scorsese's page, of course, is to see an exclusive Shine a Light clip in which the director debates whether having the perfect lighting is worth setting Mick Jagger on fire. The man really does care about the details.

The sight of Keith Richards face on an IMAX screen may be the most violent image ever in a Scorsese film.

Dear Mandi,

If Adrienne Day reported to you that she celeb hopped her way from Scorsese, to Tom Hanks, to Lance Bass, to Tiffany, then you obviously can't have been the first in the history of the world to write a sentence with Scorsese and Tiffany in it.

All you had to do to know this is research your own blog post. COME ON!

You're better than that.
