DVD Pick: The Age of Innocence

The Age of Innocence -DVD Cover Art © Sony Pictures Home EntertainmentDaniel Day-Lewis, Winona Ryder and Michelle Pfeiffer star in The Age of Innocence (1993), an absorbing and beautiful period piece directed by Martin Scorsese, who co-wrote the screenplay with Jay Cocks. The film is a faithful adaptation of the 1920 literary classic by Edith Wharton (1862-1937). Wharton's novel of manners is far removed from Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and GoodFellas, yet The Age of Innocence is one of Scorsese's best movies.
