    Still makes me chuckle… Miriam Margolyes on The Age of Innocence: ‘I said to Mr Scorsese ‘Why do you have so many English actors in this? Why are you making a film about posh types when your milieu has always been the criminal gangs of New York?’ And he said ‘Because I’m interested in brutality.’

    I've no desire to watch the Sex Purge movie, but the ungloving scene in Scorsese's THE AGE OF INNOCENCE or so much of Wong Kar-wai's work shows that you can make movies without nudity or sex sensual, romantic, and horny as all hell too. A lot of modern mainstream movies just feel glossily insensate.

    My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of THE AGE OF INNOCENCE boxd.it/eDQ949 Precise & gorgeous dissection of New York's Gilded Age is Scorcese at his most subtle. Yearning, hypocrisy, scandal...Day-Lewis & Pfeiffer are doomed by society's double standard & stacked cast is flawless. #filmsky 📽 Criterion Collection 913

    Books to Films 📚=🎞️ The Age of Innocence (1921) by Edith Wharton was adapted in 1924, '28, '34 & '93 (by Martin Scorsese). The '93 version is the most acclaimed & faithful with changes. Both deal with social norms, yet the film adds layers of complexity to all the characters. 🎩💔🔺 #filmsky #booksky

    KIRK GOLDSBERRY: I'll be honest with you, Zach Lowe. This reputation that Martin Scorsese, the director of Kundun and also The Age of Innocence, is mainly a mob movie guy. Frankly, it's silly, and I'm sure you agree. ZACH LOWE: The Aviator... What makes someone an aviator? Isn't that just a pilot?

    Though some of his best-known films are undeniably in the mob/crime genre, film director Martin Scorsese actually has an incredibly varied filmography that includes such disparate films as Kundun and The Age of Innocence.

    these people are ultimately all full of shit. And when Scorsese began his career I don't think the other white males in Hollywood thought of him as a fellow "white male". I saw reviews of The Age of Innocence that basically called him a paisan for daring to make a movie about the upper classes

    The Age of Innocence has certainly started getting its due in recent years, but still not enough. Scorsese's best film or not (and truly, it might be), it's one that anybody with any interest in or passion for cinema absolutely must see. an incredible demonstration of the form and its possibilities.

    Miriam Margolyes - 📽️ The Age of Innocence (Martin Scorsese, 1993) This BAFTA-winning role in the great Scorsese film is a funny, droll exercise in excess. Margolyes’ period delivery and laughter is one of many reasons more people should see it (and her hysterical stories about it on Graham Norton).

    What we commend as ‘real’ in life as in film—and perhaps in Scorsese’s films in particular—we might call gritty, dark, or uncompromising; THE AGE OF INNOCENCE proposes otherwise. What could be more violent than a life sculpted by compromise?”

    Margret's dress is based on Winona Ryder's gown from "The Age of Innocence" and Thomas is styled after Clark Gable, who won best actor for "It Happened One Night" at the 11th Oscars. That's one of the only movies to achieve a clean sweep of every category it was up for! Lovely film.

    My husband grumbled during the flower shop scene in The Age of Innocence (set in the early 1900's). When I asked him about it after the movie, he complained that the shop had Stargazer lilies, which weren't developed until the 1950's.

    2/7. The film starts at a performance of Verdi’s Il Trovatore - a sequence that's a clear influence on Scorsese’s THE AGE OF INNOCENCE (1993). It acts like a foregrounding of the tone of the entire film which is not unlike an opera without arias.
