Roger Ebert is a cult American film critic, the first recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for Criticism. Martin Scorsese: Retrospective is a book that should be in the library of every film lover. It's not just about its hero – the legendary director Martin Scorsese, the leader of New Hollywood in the 1970s and a patriarch of world cinema today, but also about the equally legendary author. Ebert and Scorsese were both born in New York, attended Catholic school, and were captivated by cinema. Perhaps these factors played an important role in Ebert's intuitive understanding of the key motifs and ideas in the famous director's work. The book includes Roger Ebert's reviews of Martin Scorsese's films, as well as interviews and conversations between the critic and the director, where they reflect on the dilemma of working in American cinema and living with a Catholic upbringing – the main themes in the destinies of two outstanding representatives of cinema. Book highlight: • The first edition of Roger Ebert's book in Russian.
