After serious deliberations about entering the priesthood - he entered a seminary in 1956 - Martin Scorsese opted to channel his passions into film. He graduated from NYU as a film major in 1964. Catching the eye of producer Roger Corman with his 1960s student films (including co-editing Woodstock (1970)), Scorsese directed the gritty exploiter Boxcar Bertha (1972). Mean Streets (1973) followed in 1973 and provided the benchmarks for the Scorsese style

Definitely worthwhile if you're a blues-fan but not sure if it'll hold much interest for other viewers, including Scorsese lovers.

A great documentary although not necessarily great cinema. Scorsese seems uncharacteristically humbled by the subject matter which, as a blues-fan, I liked. Inevitably feels a bit rambling since the subject is so broad but it works well as a start to the series.

It is an interesting journey in the history of Blues and it is full of amazing characters. In the Mali part they kinda lost control of the documentary in my opinion; but overall it is a valiant and enjoyable musical documentary effort.
