Martin Scorsese's challenging and often controversial films are a record of the most personal achievement in modern American cinema. From Mean Streets and Taxi Driver, through and The Last Temptation of Christ, up to Goodfellas , Casino and Gangs of New York — these titles conjure up a world and a style of filmmaking that he has made his own, one of a savage beauty of great intensity and truth.
The interviews which make up this book chart the journey that Scorsese has taken across the years in search of new subjects to engage and absorb him, and in the process reveal a man who, like Michael Powell and Francios Truffaut, has an unbridled passion for film — a passion which is evident in every frame of his work.
This revised edition includes new chapters on Kundun, Bringing Out the Dead, the documentary My Voyage to Italy, and other projects up to the epic Gangs of New York, thus bringing up to date the story of America's most exciting and articulate contemporary filmmaker.
