Martin Scorcese directs an incredible cast including Daniel Day-Lewis in this sumptuous adaptation of the classic novel. A love triangle develops in convention-bound 1870s New York., European Countess Ellen Olenska arrives in rigid 1870s New York and blows it apart, luring upright, uptight Newland Archer out of his society marriage. Drama., Though overswamped with authentic period decor (and dishware) in too many scenes, Martin Scorsese’s The Age of Innocence is an adroit, easy-to-follow adaptation of Edith Wharton’s 1920 novel. Set in the upper circles of New York society in the 1870s, the film stars Daniel Day-Lewis as Newland Archer, a proper gentleman who falls in love with demure but fascinating socialite Countess Ellen Olenska (Michelle Pfeiffer). Newland would like to marry her, but he is prevented from doing so: she is in the process of getting a divorce, and as such is socially unacceptable. He takes the somewhat dull May Welland (Winona Ryder) as his consolation bride, all the while hoping for a reunion with Ellen. The affair-by all indications a very chaste one-takes place, but Ellen eventually sends him back to May, who turns out not to be as naïve or easily led as she seems. Scorcese’s meticulous production values are complemented by the velvety offscreen narration of Joanne Woodward, whose spirited “presence” helps this very long film move apace. The film won a “best costume design” Academy Award, while screenwriters Scorsese and Jay Cocks and actress Wynona Rider received nominations. See if you can spot Scorsese and his parents in cameo roles-and also watch for that anachronistic pack of breath mints in Michelle Pfeiffer’s purse! An earlier, long-unseen version of The Age of Innocence, filmed in 1934 and starring Irene Dunne and John Boles, was restored for TV showings in 1996., Society scion Newland Archer is engaged to May Welland, but his well-ordered life is upset when he meets May’s unconventional cousin, the Countess Olenska. At first, Newland becomes a defender of the Countess, whose separation from her abusive husband makes her a social outcast in the restrictive high society of late-19th Century New York, but he finds in her a companion spirit and they fall in love., A drama of a man caught between two women and two worlds. The story based on the Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Edith Wharton is interwoven with passion, sacrifice and intrigue played out against the opulent backdrop of New York in the 1870’s, a time of Morgan’s and Vanderbilt of lavish excess and social hypocrisy., Martin Scorsese’s adaptation of Edith Wharton’s novel is set in 1870s New York City, where a society lawyer develops an obsessive love for his fiancée’s beautiful cousin, recently returned from Europe under a scandalous cloud., A sumptuous adaptation of Edith Wharton’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about the repressed emotions in a love triangle between three wealthy socialites in convention-bound 1870s New York society. A noble young man becomes engaged to a well-bred, beautiful, but dull young woman, but then falls for a seductive, independent woman with a scandalous past., European Countess Ellen Olenska arrives in rigid 1870s New York and blows it apart, luring upright, uptight Newland Archer out of his society marriage., A wealthy young aristocrat is torn between two women and two worlds in the rigid high society of 1870s New York.
