Despite widespread praise by critics and fans, and a string of Oscar nominations, Scorsese did not win the coveted Academy Award for Best Director until 2007 when he was honored for The Departed (2006). The Oscar win was thought long overdue by many industry followers. The Departed also won that year's Academy Award for Best Picture, the first Scorsese film to do so.
