That's sad on many levels, but one of the more ironic reasons is that many of the directors who are so loved today could not have made the great films they did, had they not been so deeply inspired by the films of the past.

Just to echo most of what is said here, this is a wonderful journey through Italian cinema with Scorsese. In the beginning and end of Mi Viaggio Di Italia (My Voyage to Italy), legend Martin Scorsese explains, in good reason, that the way to get people more interested in film is to share personal experiences of viewing particular ones that had some kind of impact for a movie-goer's experience (much like a friend telling another that a new movie is out, go see it, it's good, etc).

Special Interest, Plus he's smart. The portrayal of Rossellini in particular will be hard-pressed to ever be equaled - let alone surpassed. We won’t be able to verify your ticket today, but it’s great to know for the future.Regal Scorsese's commentary makes all the difference - humorous (loved the story about going to the barber!
Instead of doing commentary on the DVDs of his favorite Italian films, which he probably could do better than anyone else alive, being a masterfully adept teacher as well as the greatest working American director, Scorsese has decided to make his own film about them so he could relate them to his own development as a director. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. While I can understand that some of the omitted titles just might not have been available to view as he was growing up, some of the missing stuff IS perplexing: he doesn't mention De Sica's classic MIRACLE IN MILAN (1951) but instead concentrates on the lesser-known THE GOLD OF NAPLES (1954; the only film included I've yet to watch) & skips over LA NOTTE (1961) when he gets to Antonioni's famous trilogy!

Scorsese traces his Italian roots and discusses his love and fascination with movies and in particular Italian cinema. Included: Luchino Visconti, Federico Fellini, Vittorio De Sica, Roberto Rossellini and Michelangelo Antonioni. Scorsese's gentle, loving commentary as he sends us sailing on a sea of images is so intimate and, occasionally, so humorous that I felt my heart grow inside me.
Starting in 1949, they watched movies on TV as well as in theaters, lots of Italian imports. Now all this does not seem like enough that you should completely avoid his film--there are some interesting insights into the films and Scorsese's mind. So, he spends four solid hours explaining the details and expressions of at least thirty films, all condensed into about ten minutes each. For no world class filmmaker (with the possible exception of Truffuat) has ever poured out so much emotion and depth of understanding for other directors as Scorsese has here. | Rating: 3/4 With the depth he goes into about these films and the amount of lengthy clips shown, you can feel his passion for these films and the eagerness he has to share them with today's generation of young film lovers. "My Voyage to Italy" is a great film if you are trying to look into the mind of Martin Scorsese or if you are a film student. Sometimes I could swear he's sitting on the other couch, pointing out significant and personal moments in the film clips for me. I'd love to see the same thing done for the cinema of other countries, particularly France & Japan. I have to say that not all the movies are as powerful in their impact to me- a non Italian but that is not a criticism. I'm an Italian American of similar age and background.. and I was so thrilled by this documentary i was moved to tears several times..He mentions the obvious films such as Open City, La Dolce Vita etc & mentions obscurities as well such as Rossellinis "Vacation in Italy" with Ingrid Bergaman & George Sanders never knew of this film..

My Voyage to Italy (Martin Scorsese, 1999) 8/10.
Is it worth the premium? Although less wide-ranging than the previous film, this one is sure to confirm Scorsese's place among the people whom we'd most enjoy watching movies with.

I've often claimed that I admire Martin Scorsese far more as a film historian than as a film-maker & something like this only reaffirms that notion. Martin Scorsese interviews his mother and father about their life in New York City and the family history back in Sicily.
