The TVI Take
Scorsese's 1993 Edith Wharton adaptation — the film he repeatedly cited as his most violent because Gilded Age New York high society used social-exclusion mechanics rather than guns. Daniel Day-Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Winona Ryder anchor; the costuming, table-setting, and conversational-rhythm research are documentary-grade.
Joanne Woodward's narration is the film's structural anchor. Career-defining work outside the gangster register Scorsese is usually identified with.
