Scorsese's first feature film is by all standards a remarkable debut. The movie starts out charming and playful, as we watch J.R. (Keitel) first meet the young woman who is never given a name (simply christened, the girl). Within the first 15 minutes it is apparant that Scorsese is a real talent in the making, with a unique, stylistically ambitious way of sharing his vision. Just as quickly he tip... read more

Who's That Knocking At My Door is primarily of historical interest, more an exercise in style - in this case a New York 60s spin on nouvelle vague and Italian neo-realism - than a work of substance. Expanded from a film school project, Scorsese's feature debut is typically light on plot, counterpointing Harvey Keitel's Mean Streets-lite time-wasting with the boys from the old neighbourhood with hi... read more

"Voinee aivan hyvällä omallatunnolla todeta että Martin Scorsesen parhaat, kovimmat saavutukset tehtiin hänen uransa alkupään tuotannossa, ja ne olivat juuri nämä, jossa hän käsitteli New Yorkia ulkopuolisten silmin: Kuka kolkuttaa ovelleni, Sudenpesä ja Taksikuski. On siis todella yllätysten edessä jos alkaa esimerkiksi vertaamaan Scorsesen 25-vuotiaana tekemäänsä Kuka kolkuttaa –rainaa 74-vuotiaana tekemäänsä Silenceen. Scorsesen ensimmäisen elokuva, olipa miten vaatimaton"
