Martin Scorsese's latest movie The Wolf of Wall Street hits the big screen next week, and if you can look past the controversy you'll find a fast, funny and hugely entertaining look into the lives of some very bad men.
Naturally, The Wolf of Wall Street boasts a killer soundtrack with Foo Fighters, Cypress Hill, Devo and Bo Diddly among the many artists backing the stockbroker mayhem.
The heralded filmmaker has always had a keen eye (and ear) for marrying image to music, so with Wolf of Wall Street poised to open on Friday (January 17) in the UK, Digital Spy takes a look at 8 great uses of pop songs in Scorsese's career.
