Description
ROBERT DE NIRO. One of the most versatile and acclaimed actors of recent years, famous for the uncompromising method approach he brings to roles ranging from the psychotic Travis Bickle in Martin Scorsese's seminal Taxi Driver, to the nerveless robber of Michael Mann's Heat and the loser in Tarantino's Jackie Brown.
Series Jack Hunter has selected his own chronological Top Ten of Robert De Niro's movies, which are analysed in illustrated, in-depth essays by some of the best cutting-edge film critics of today.
The result is both an incisive overview of Robert De Niro as an actor, and an anthology of films by some of the leading directors of recent decades such as Martin Scorsese, Michael Mann, Quentin Tarantino, Sergio Leone, Bernardo Bertolucci, and Francis Ford Coppola.
Featured films include: Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Angel Heart, Once Upon a Time In America, Jackie Brown, King of Comedy, Heat, 1900, Cape Fear, and Godfather II,
