Scorsese is one of the most widely respected film directors of the last thirty years ? GoodFellas, Raging Bull and The Last Temptation of Christ are titles familiar to us all. This extensive analysis discusses his influences, the controversy surrounding his films and includes exhaustive music lists and details of his long-time collaborators. Completely up to date, with details of Scorsese's new film, Gangs of New York, which stars Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio Illustrated, with eight pages of color film stills.
I thought the book was interesting and gave a lot of detail on Scorsese's films such as production, actors and how Scorsese got into the film industry. The book was very factual and full of information, I enjoyed the book although it was more like a fact file than a book about Scorsese. I would recommend it to people who enjoy reading or interested in film.
