Can I dare to say this is Scorsese’s best film? The narrative structure mixed with the voice over, the visual story telling , the level of detail.. I can go on and on. I can watch it over and over again and still find new details and nuances. A true masterpiece
Yes, agreed and they should teach these details in schools. The social acceptance & social way of then and now. Class, significant of China before cars & other expensive objects, way to communicate before internet, telephone, etc. How females cannot seek their own housing or even own one. Could get kids thinking about how we got here, and they could spend time being & thinking about more productive things and appreciating what we have today. (and less time watching half-naked music videos. LOL) 🤣
dont know if its his best (its deffinetly his most underrated)it certainly is up there, im going to rewatch it ive seen it once time to rewatch
My sentiments exactly. Scorcese’s masterpiece. 💔
Mine too!!!!
Marty is so humble here. He crushed it with this stunning movie and literally just shrugs his shoulders. What a Master of his craft. Thank you for so many great films.
Not only my favorite Scorsese film but also one of my favorite films of all time. The emotional/psychological brutality paired with the beautiful, opulent set designs and costumes is so stunning.
I am obsessed with this film, the music and the book. Heartbreaking. Thank you for making this film, MS.
What an honour it is to listen to Scorsese's view on his movie, I couldn't stop watching it, mesmerising performances and camera movement. It's also sexier than many more explicit movies
Don't miss his interview with Charlie Rose as well. A thoughtful & kind director/writer ... Rare in Hollywood, I think. And the will to share the history & details of that time. The emotions that could not be expressed, the subtleties, the time when there were no telephone, no internet, and women's right to find a house or live alone were not acceptable. Such a complex situation & so much unspoken and can be misunderstood. And an assumption of what a stranded married woman should or would be willing to accept. Etc.
One of my all time favorite films! God Bless M.S. for making it for us, and especially bless Edith Wharton, for one of the most beautiful books ❤
This is a wonderful interview full of great insights.
I love this movie. Wish that more people would rate this higher on Scorsese’s tops lists.
I just watched it for the first time, surprised how good it is, it is excellent. Possibly top 5 Scorcese for me...it is incredibly underrated and kind of forgotten about sadly.
A masterpiece.
Extraordinary Interview by two wonderfully educated men about film, photography, art & culture. Devine !
Love this film. Sometimes I wish Martin Scorsese would have dialed down on the crime stories and "experimented" more outside his wheelhouse, as he did with The Age of Innocence.
This is one of my favourite movies! It made me love Martin Scorsese
This has one of my favorite endings of any film.
Whenever I watch this film, Im always in such awe of the beautiful filmmaking I often have to rewind so I can focus on the performances and story which is also beautiful.
I love this movie and wondered why Scorsese was drawn to write/direct it. I appreciate this interview. Thank you.
I think (just a guess) that is because it's a NY story... he loves the city and always telling stories about it.
@@yaelleinthesky100, it is a great story and like resemblance of someones' lives those days. Jane Austen did stories early in the same century (1817 vs. 1870). The social limitations and law for family and women's right to work, live alone, availability, own property of that time.
A true M A S T E R P I E C E on.numerous levels. Excitingly intriguing , and subtle drama with twists and then...
A amazing insightful interview of the greatest of our time. Thank you. I wished the interviewer cut & comb his hair a bit though. Scorsese of course dressed and looked his best. Such thoughtful answers. I do think that the countess was the nicest and smartest who realized that she was not going be able to stop the chase and live respectful live w/o betraying people they trust. In the end, his inability to love her w/o physical intimacy sent her to the place where she ran away from. A place where the secretary begged Newland not to let her go back to. And many more. 😅
Thank you so much for this!
I wish Scorsese would film Wharton's 'The Custom of the Country'.
Omg Scorsese has such a nice personality
love the interview
There was this guy who obsessed on this movie, and he made me watch it...later we had an affair that went something like this and ended like this (sort of)
Many thanks for posting this.
Oh I can really hear some Brahms in the score. It's perfect, especially when you consider Brahms' great and impossible love for Clara Schumann.
Masterful cinema this film!
Love this movie. A favorite ❤
These people were formal! carrying invitations or messages on silver trays
Good stuff!
Scorsese references Stan Brakhage, how great is that?
Very Brahmsian music
Probably intentional, appropriate for the 19th century Romantic time period of the film
Loved this movie
Like the movie a bunch but don’t love it-feel like Marty was too faithful to the novel and at times between the cuts and the narration the film is a bit choppy at times.
for whatever it’s worth, the vincent canby review in the new york times was actually quite positive. not sure why it’s presented otherwise here.
from the review: “the age of innocence isn’t perfect, but it’s a robust gamble that pays off.”
I never saw the movie. I find the culture drives me crazy. It makes a little voice inside me scream, just say what you mean and do what you want, FFS!
Polanski's TESS broke me
You should see The Age Of Innocence its great its in my top ten of his films. You mention Tess that is a great film too.
@@65g4yes , it's our history. What got us here. Similar to Jane Austen time. What was the law then, the social acceptance then, what's proper then vs. oversharing now, etc. what women can vs. what can't those days.
