Steven Prince

After being forgotten for 30 years, the filmmaker revisits Scorsese's lost documentary 'American Boy' and it's raconteur subject, Steven Prince.

Мужчина пробивается сквозь сновидения, встречая разных людей и обсуждая с ними значение и смыслы Вселенной.

The very first full-length documentary on Scorsese offers an invaluable look at how he was perceived by his colleagues, and himself, in 1977. Catching Scorsese while he was in post-production on New York and editing The Last Waltz, British filmmaker Peter Hayden gets the manically hyper Scorsese to comment on his youth, his relation to his lead characters, and most importantly, his approach to direction. The doc doesn’t quite move at the pace of Scorsese’s revved-up speed-talking, but it does offer some real insight into his productivity in the 1970s, thanks to an impressive array of talking heads. Included are Scorsese’s collaborators Jay Cocks, Mardik Martin, Brian De Palma, Steven Prince (who co-produced this doc), and his mentor John Cassavetes. Also the performers, who discuss his working methods in detail — Jodie Foster, Liza Minnelli, and, of course, Robert De Niro.

Тусклый свет слепых фонарей, скелеты фабричных труб, задыхающихся в собственном дыму. Вавилонские башни небоскребов, все это — ад Нового времени, Нью-Йорк. Ветеран вьетнамской войны Трэйвис Бикл ведет свое одинокое такси по ночным улицам бесконечного города, и перед ним разворачивается мрачная панорама человеческих грехов. Как ветхозаветный пророк, он надеется, что однажды небеса пошлют на землю спасительный дождь, который очистит Нью-Йорк от вековой грязи. А когда умирает надежда, остается только ненависть. Огненный ливень обрушится на головы грешников. Таксист позаботится об этом.
