Following his breakthrough with 'Mean Streets', Scorsese directed this feature. Coming hot off her success in 'The Exorcist', the studio granted Ellen Burstyn total creative control over this project. She had two goals: to make a film about woman with real-life problems, and to secure an up-and-coming film maker as the director. While impressed with Scorsese's talent after viewing 'Mean Streets', ... read more

20 From 74: My Favorite Films Of 1974 (20 movies items)

"After Martin Scorcese made a name for himself with Mean Streets, he moves on to a road that maybe isn't as mean, but can still be pretty rough, the interstate highway. In her a mid-thirties housewife & mother named Alice suddenly finds herself a widow and without a means of support. Packing up her son & her meager belongings, and with little direction, she takes to the road in search of better life. Originally a story that was meant to be a bit smoother around the edges, Ellen Burstyn's Oscar"

A Complete review of Martin Scorsese's work (29 movies items)

" Cast : Ellen Burstyn, Harvey Keitel, Diane Ladd, Kris Kristofferson, Jodie Foster What was it about? A recently widowed woman on the road with her precocious young son, determined to make a new life for herself as a singer. My two cents: Following his breakthrough with 'Mean Streets', Scorsese directed this feature which was a project initiated by Ellen Burstyn who picked up Scorsese herself. With 'Boxcar Bertha', it was Scorsese's 2nd feature with a woman as a leading characte"
