Scorsese: Friday Night Cinema
Delve into the master filmmaker's back catalogue.
Overview
With Melbourne's winter Scorsese exhibition currently in full swing, there's never been a better time to delve into the master filmmaker's back catalogue. Sure, most of us have at least heard of Taxi Driver and Goodfellas, but in a career that spans more than five decades, that's just the tip of the iceberg. Screening select Friday nights at ACMI from June to September, Scorsese: Friday Night Cinema will explore a few of Marty's lesser-known gems, along with a pair of recent critical favourites.
Each of the five films will screen twice throughout the season, beginning on Friday, June 17 with the film that won Scorsese his long-overdue Oscar, The Departed. That'll be followed on July 8 by his criminally underrated black comedy After Hours, and chased down by The Wolf of Wall Street on July 22. The season will take a break in early August during MIFF, before returning with a vengeance with two of Marty's celebrated music documentaries: The Last Waltz and Shine A Light.
