It has been a decade since The Wolf of Wall Street was released, starring Margot Robbie and Leonardo DiCaprio. This film was a massive success, earning nearly $400 million worldwide and surpassing Martin Scorsese's previous classics in terms of gross earnings. Interestingly, this 2013 Oscar-nominated biopic also set a bizarre record in Hollywood. The Wolf of Wall Street held the record for the most F-words in a film, with 569 instances and a frequency of 2.81 times per minute. Previously, the record for a non-documentary film was Spike Lee's Summer of Sam in 1999, with 435 instances.

Martin Scorsese directed The Wolf of Wall Street, with Leonardo DiCaprio portraying the infamous Wall Street trader Jordan Belfort.

This film can proudly claim the triumph of using the most F-words in a non-documentary film. According to Variety, there are 506 instances of the F-word in the film's two-hour and 59-minute running time, averaging approximately 2.81 times per minute. Vulture's Gilbert Cruz broke down the profanity usage in the film, revealing that Leonardo DiCaprio contributed a remarkable 332 expletives, followed by Jonah Hill with 107. Jon Bernthal's character, Brad, adds another 50 instances, while Margot Robbie's portrayal of Naomi registers a respectable 36 occurrences.

Although Martin Scorsese is known for incorporating profanity in his films, determining which of his movies holds the record for the most F-bombs is an intriguing question. Scorsese's films often embrace their R-rating, featuring brutal violence and a liberal use of profanity. In fact, three of his masterpieces even rank among the top 20 most profanity-laden movies ever made. Apart from The Wolf of Wall Street, his other projects Casino (422) and Goodfellas (300) also appear in the F-word top 20 list. Interestingly, The Departed features the word "f*ck" 257 times, making it only the fourth most profane film by Scorsese.

In conclusion, The Wolf of Wall Street not only achieved massive success at the box office but also set a record for the most F-words in a non-documentary film. Martin Scorsese is no stranger to incorporating profanity in his movies, with several of his works ranking among the most profanity-laden films in history.
