I just like the title. I never actually saw the movie but the title has always stuck with me. It's a great way to refer to New York City. What does it even mean?

Easily my favorite Woody Allen movie.

I saw the movie many years ago and I don't really remember much other than loving it. I love Paul Mazursky's films. He's a New Yorker who is a great writer-director.

It has a Dakota setting and Roman Polanski is one of my favorite filmmakers of all time. This is a movie that I've watched a trillion times. Mia Farrow and the whole cast are really strong.

Here's a classic staple of New York movies. The look of it is this distilled black-and-white New York and Clifford Odets writes great dialogue.

I love this movie very much. My girlfriend had never seen it before and we just watched it two nights ago. It's such a good Billy Wilder movie.

This is one I read about in some old interview with Stanley Kubrick. It's a very good movie about a girl who is dealing with being on her own and figuring out how to become a photographer. It's like a 16 millimeter independent film directed by a woman named Claudia Weill. Christopher Guest has a small part in it, too.

It's one of those known movies that's not that widely seen, about this slightly older Jewish gangster who gets out of prison after doing a couple of years and is dealing with all kinds of life problems. It has a little bit of 'The Sopranos' in it except that there is no violence whatsoever in the movie that I can recall. It is very well written, and has a certain gentleness about it.

I love the Martin Scorsese section of this movie, which is about a painter played by Nick Nolte. The setting is this wonderful sunny Tribeca/SoHo loft where he's this abstract expressionist, and it's written by Richard Price, who is a New York voice.

I've always loved this script. It's a very well-done Hollywood take on New York. Nicolas Cage, John Mahoney, Cher, Olympia Dukakis and Vincent Gardenia are great in it.
