A Companion to Martin Scorsese A Companion to Martin Scorsese "This
valuable book brings the exceptional scale of Martin Scorsese's
film work into clear view. His achievements are monumental, and the
essays collected in this work provide wonderfully detailed and
vivid analyses of his oeuvre. A comprehensive study of the most
exciting filmmaker working today." Robert Burgoyne, University of
St Andrews A Companion to Martin Scorsese, Revised Edition is a
comprehensive collection of original essays assessing the career of
one of America's most prominent contemporary filmmakers. The first
reference work of its kind, this book contains contributions from
influential scholars in North America and Europe. The essays use a
variety of analytic approaches to study numerous aspects of
Scorsese's work, from his earliest films to his place within the
history of American and world cinema. They consider his work in
relation to auteur theory, the genres in which he has worked, his
use of popular music, and his recent involvement with film
preservation. Several of the essays offer fresh interpretations of
some of Scorsese's most influential films, including Mean Streets,
Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, GoodFellas, Gangs of New York, Hugo, and
The Irishman. Others take a broader approach and discuss the
representation of violence, ethnicity, religion, sexuality, gender,
race, and other themes across his work. With insights that will
interest film scholars as well as movie enthusiasts, this is an
important contribution to the scholarship of contemporary American
cinema.
