Martin Scorsese: A Retrospective
14.99 €
Roger Ebert is an iconic American film critic and the first winner of the Pulitzer Prize for art criticism.
"Martin Scorsese: A Retrospective" - a book that should be in the library of every film lover. It's not just about its hero - the legendary director Martin Scorsese, leader of the "New Hollywood" in the 70s and patriarch of world cinema now, but also about the equally legendary author. Ebert and Scorsese were both born in New York City, went to Catholic school, and were fascinated by movies. Perhaps it was these factors that played an important role in Ebert's intuitive understanding of the key motifs and ideas of the famous director's work. The book includes Roger Ebert's reviews of Martin Scorsese's films, as well as interviews and conversations between the critic and the director, in which they reflect on the dilemma of working in American cinema and living with a Catholic upbringing - major themes in the fates of two outstanding representatives of cinema.
