Summary
This collage of interview transcripts provides a behind-the-scenes look at each of the famed director's movies. Organized chronologically by film, it consists mainly of clubby chitchat by Robert DeNiro, Paul Newman, Willem Dafoe, Joe Pesci, Roseanna Arquette, Harvey Keitel, Hollywood execs, scriptwriters, the director himself, his parents and many others. Kelly's biographical profile discusses Scorsese's search for transcendence. She includes Scorsese's own comments on his Catholic upbringing and artistic aims, and a sneak preview of "Cape Fear," a remake of a 1962 film starring Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum, both of whom appear in new roles in Scorsese's update.
