Add your own review!

Overview

"A study of Martin Scorsese's early career, from his student short films to ""New York, New York"". The detailed discussion of the films themselves is situated in relation both to the issue of film authorship and a period of American cinema marked by crisis and change. Although about Scorsese's film making, and an intervention in the debates surrounding film authorship, it is also about American film making in the Sixties and Seventies."
