Scorsese rethinks new movie's tone

Director Martin Scorsese is "re-thinking" the tone of his latest movie, Gangs of New York, in light of the attack on the New York World Trade Centre.

The movie is about the 19th Century clashes between the Italians and the Irish and considers "who has the right" to be in the USA.

"Things," says Scorsese, "seem different in view of the attacks."

The movie, starring Liam Neeson, Daniel Day-Lewis, Leonard DiCaprio and Cameron Diaz, has had its release date put back until next Spring.
