review 1: The story of the legendary director, Martin Scorsese. What Richard Schickel did for Conversations with Scorsese was amazing and made it feel like you were at the interview. The book gives you personal thoughts from him and makes this experience amazing. Martin talks about his films that include Taxi Driver, The Departed, Goodfellas, and Raging Bull. What techniques did he use? Where did he grow up? How did he become one of the most successful directors of all time? I recommend this book to any film buff and anyone who likes to learn about film.
review 2: In this Q&A-format biography, document filmmaker director Scorsese on a journey through his life in cinema. An asthmatic, sickly child, Scorsese used movies to escape from family tensions and the mean streets o
... moref New York's Little Italy. Scorsese has made over 20 feature films (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, etc.) as well as numerous documentaries. A cross between a film master class and after-hours jam session, the conversations range from Scorsese's Italian upbringing to Hollywood gossip to obscure silent films. Scorsese has always been a fluid raconteur. Scorsese's focus on the minutiae of his life and in his movies has given his work universal appeal. Anyone with even a passing interest in Scorsese's career or in film history will find a gem on every page. less
