Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
This is the screenplay to one of the most important films of the 1990s. Worthy of comparison with the Edith Wharton novel upon which it is based, it is also a fascinating example of how filmmakers bridge the difference between literature and cinema. In its afterward, Scorsese and Cocks provide an annotated list of the cinematic sources that influenced their writing and direction. The reader can use the list as a guide to further viewing.
From Library Journal
This luscious volume, a companion to the recently released film The Age of Innocence , offers an inside view of its production from the director and the screenwriter. The book is divided into four sections. The first, filled with turn-of-the-century quotes and photos and full-color renditions of paintings by Whistler and Sargent, evokes the period in which the movie is set. The second contains the complete screenplay with stills from the film as well as photos of the filming process. The third is a list of 22 films that the authors feel influenced them while they made The Age of Innocence. Finally, there is a section of quotes from the cast and crew members. This glorious celebration of the film is simply beautiful to look at. Expect demand where the film has been popular.
