Summary:Martin Scorsese is one of the most respected names in cinema, with a track record that puts him firmly among the all-time greats of filmmaking. Scorsese's directorial debut was in 1963, with a movie he made while still a student at New York University.

Since then, Scorsese's name has become synonymous with movies that make the spine tingle- Raging Bull , Casino , The Departed --and of course, Goodfellas . From his debut feature to The Wolf of Wall Street , Martin Scorsese: A Retrospective charts the director's glittering 50-year career at the helm of filmmaking. Movie by movie, this stunning monograph provides the definitive celebration of one of cinema's most enduring talents.
