Synopsis

Director Martin Scorsese pays tribute to New York City with an Academy Award-nominated historical drama about the city's notorious past. Set in the mid-19th century, this sprawling epic chronicles the clash between gangs of Irish immigrants and anti-immigration citizens that culminated in a bloody war on the streets of the city. Scorcese directs an all-star cast featuring Daniel Day-Lewis, Leonardo DiCaprio and Cameron Diaz, but it''s the beautiful art direction and costume design that steal the show. "A magnificent throwback to an almost vanished era of epic filmmaking by great filmmakers" (Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune). Martin Scorsese---USA---2002---168 mins.
