We examine how his films have been informed by profound questions about violence, alienation, faith, and genuine self-understanding (or self-delusion). In this light, Scorsese’s films will be appraised, having brought into American culture a shared vocabulary for discussing the nature of freedom in America and the nature of responsibility in a=0D=0A=criminal, absurd, or even fallen world.=0D=0A=Our exploration will cover many films, including Raging Bull, Mean Streets, The Last Temptation of Christ, and The Departed.
