Description

Martin Scorsese masterfully brings Edith Wharton’s classic novel to life in The Age of Innocence, a sweeping romantic drama set in the opulent world of 19th-century New York high society. The story follows Newland Archer (Daniel Day-Lewis), a respected young lawyer engaged to the graceful and conventional May Welland (Winona Ryder). However, his world is turned upside down when he meets May’s cousin, the strikingly independent and scandalized Countess Olenska (Michelle Pfeiffer). As his feelings for the Countess grow, Newland is faced with an agonizing choice between societal expectations and the desires of his heart.

With stunning cinematography, exquisite production design, and powerful performances, this Criterion Collection edition presents The Age of Innocence in a beautifully restored version, making it a must-have for fans of period dramas and Scorsese’s cinematic brilliance.
