Of all New Hollywood directors, he remains the most active, the most indispensable, the most \"new,\" not only changing with the times, but changing the times through the magnitude of his work. Without Scorsese's gangster films, the global gangster genre would not be the same, nor anywhere near as accomplished and without his filmography, the entirety of American cinema would be greatly diminished. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe purpose of this book is not about bringing more attention to Scorsese the director or to his most notable films. Rather, it argues that Scorsese's lengthy career has produced individual works that have been neglected, even while others have been lauded. 'Neglected' in this collection is defined as those Scorsese films that were underappreciated by mainstream critics, by mainstream audiences, by scholars, or by any combination of the three. Further, the book's focus goes beyond feature films, as Scorsese has directed shorts, music videos, television programs, and TV commercials. There is intrinsic value in these film forms, just as there is value in the analysis of those Scorsese directed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Phillip Sipiora\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798765128138","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45156098506889,"sku":"9798765128138","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_102d07ef-b85e-4cfc-a0f3-3547065847ea.jpg?v=1768294829","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/neglected-scorsese-overlooked-films-television-shows-and-commercials-9798765128138","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
