Friday October 5 1:53 AM ET
NEW YORK (Variety) - Miramax Films has acquired all television
and video
rights to Martin Scorsese's documentary ``My Voyage to Italy,'' a personal
history through Italian cinema screening at the New York Film Festival.
``My Voyage'' pays tribute to some of Italy's greatest
films and
filmmakers while revealing Scorsese's own maturation as a filmmaker.
Scorsese
hosted, co-wrote and directed the project.
``I wanted to shake the dust off film history and ground
it within common,
everyday, lived experiences,'' Scorsese said. ``Ultimately, I wanted
to do
with these films what the best teachers did for me, which was create
a sense
of continuity between the
past, the present and the future.''
Miramax, which bought the rights from Turner Entertainment
Networks, also
distributed his previous documentary film series, ``A Personal Journey
With
Martin Scorsese Through American Movies.''
``My Voyage'' will be released on DVD concurrently with
its television
premiere on Turner Classic Movies in June 2002. The Turner Classics
premiere
will be accompanied by a screening of 20 pictures from Italy's most
acclaimed
directors.
