Martin Scorsese shot this historical drama between December 2000 and March 2001, using the massive Cinecittà Studios in Rome to recreate the Five Points slum of mid-1800s New York City when filming on location was not possible. Which 2002 Scorsese film is it?

Question

Accepted Answer

Gangs of New York. Rome and New York City were both central to the making of Scorsese's Gangs of New York. Principal photography ran at Cinecittà Studios in Rome and in Long Island City, New York, because nineteenth-century New York could no longer be filmed on location.
