Category: Books

Since his emergence in the early seventies, Martin Scorsese has become one of the most respected names in cinema. Classics such as Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas are regularly cited as being among the finest films ever made.

Leading film writer Tom Shone draws on his in-depth knowledge and distinctive viewpoint to present refreshing commentaries on all twenty-six main features, from the rarely shown Who’s That Knocking at My Door (1967) to The Irishman (2019), as well as covering Scorsese’s notable parallel career as a documentary maker. Impeccably designed, and copiously illustrated with more than two hundred stills and behind-the-scenes images, this is the definitive celebration of one of cinema’s most enduring talents.

Mia ★★★★★

I've rewatched Raging Bull and Goodfellas so many times, and this book finally gave me the context behind how those films came together. The writing on his early seventies emergence is sharp without getting too academic.

Mia H. ★★★★★

The behind-the-scenes photos alone are worth it, especially the ones from the Raging Bull and Taxi Driver shoots. I've been flipping through a chapter a night and keep noticing small details I missed in the films themselves.

Harper ★★★★★

I went in expecting a coffee-table book and got something closer to a film course. The chronology follows his career from the early seventies straight through, and seeing the arc laid out that way made me want to rewatch Raging Bull immediately.
