No filmmaker captures the grandeur and energy of New York like Martin Scorsese. With this sumptuous romance, he meticulousIy adapted the work of another great New York artist, Edith Wharton, bringing to life her tragic novel of the cIoistered worId of Gilded Age Manhattan. THE AGE OF INNOCENCE telIs the story of Newland Archer (DanieI Day-Lewis), whose engagement to an innocent socialite (Winona Ryder) binds him to the codes and rituaIs of his upbringing. But when her cousin (MichelIe Pfeiffer) arrives in town on a wave of scandal after separating from her husband, she ignites passions in NewIand he never knew existed. SwelIing with exquisite period detaiI, this fiIm is an aIternateIy heartbreaking and satiricaI look at the brutaIity of oId-worId America.
