Edith Wharton’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about a secret passion within the enclosed social universe of 19th-century New York struck many as an odd departure for Martin Scorsese. Upon release in 1993, The Age of Innocence was greeted with equal amounts of admiration and puzzlement. 25 years later, this stunning film feels like one of Scorsese’s greatest - as visually expressive as it is emotionally fine-tuned, the movie is a magnificent lament for missed chances and lost time. With an extraordinary cast led by Daniel Day-Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Winona Ryder, The Age of Innocence has finally received the long-awaited restoration it deserves.
4K restoration with audio remastered to Scorsese-approved 5.1.
