		His daughter, DJ (Natasha Lyonne), the film's narrator, is a redheaded teen who lives in Upper East Side splendor with her mother, Steffi (Goldie Hawn), stepdad Bob (Alan Alda) and Bob's children, Lane (Gaby Hoffmann), Laura (Natalie Portman) and Scott (Lukas Haas).
		Without the music and dance numbers the film might seem disposable, though it kind of is anyway.
		Her scenes at the end with Allen by the Seine, or at a party where everyone dresses up as Groucho Marx, are marred by the kind of dreary you-always-made-me-laugh dialogue that the rest of the film scrupulously avoids.

	Fort Worth Weekly Online -- fwweekly.com \| Film \| Manhattan Melodrama
		Instead, Jim Sheridan's film is much more personal, recounting how he brought his family to the United States.
		Sheridan, you may remember, is a filmmaker who makes up for his sporadic productivity (five films in the last 14 years) by racking up Oscar nominations and other awards almost every time out.
		She's not by any means a simplistic actress, but the emotions seem to radiate from her with such purity that she seems otherworldly -- it's hard to believe Peter Jackson missed casting her as an elf.

	New York State Writers Institute - Manhattan Melodrama Film Notes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		MANHATTAN MELODRAMA is a classic MGM confection, made up of a substrate of Depression grit under a varnish of MGM gloss.
		Cinematographer James Wong Howe brought his many flourishes with low-key lighting to the film, and the result was classic ’30s movie schizophrenia: a film that took up the harsh realities of its beleaguered audiences, reprocessed them, and created a sparkling dream of social order, family prosperity, and individual elegance.
		The glossy MANHATTAN MELODRAMA caught little of the flavor of Dillinger’s life, which had been conducted on the run, in squalid rural hideouts and dusty Midwestern back roads, lurching from one bank robbery to another, the hard-won money never buying him the security or the elegance he craved.

		The Film Society did so much in preparing and setting up for the event and I was proud to be a part of it.
		The funniest film was The Banker, a film about a man who worked at a sperm bank and later we find out he dumps all the sperm from the customers and instead uses his own and tracks the lives of all of his children.
		The Film Society worked nonstop from 4:00-midnight and we were all exhausted but very glad for the turnout.

	Sudden Manhattan
		Adrienne Shelly's absurdist romp "Sudden Manhattan" is crammed with zany characters colliding giddily on the streets of lower Manhattan in their search for meaning in life.
		Shelly), the film's narrator and central character, is an aimless, unemployed 20-something woman who moans about having no job, no love, no reason to get up in the morning.
		She is fortunate enough to live rent free in a building owned by her writing teacher, Murphy (Roger Rees), an eccentric Englishman who is so smitten with her that he leaves a bouquet of red roses on her doorstep each morning.

		The film kick-started a love affair with London for the director, who is famous for the Manhattan backdrop of his previous films.
		After "Manhattan Melodrama," a film made famous when the notorious gangster John Dillinger was shot and killed while leaving the theater, MGM signed Rooney to a long-term contract.
		That's two films in a row away from his former muse, Manhattan, in what is beginning to look like a serious parting of the ways for the couple.

		So when "Manhattan" was released, Woody's first "true" widescreen picture (so much so that Woody insisted this film NEVER be released on video or shown on television without the fl bars on the top and bottom of the screen), I wasn't quite sure what to expect.
		As in all of Allen's films, in spite of the ugly ensemble, there is always something touching about the filmmaker's honest and fearless confrontation of the human truth that people make terrible messes of their lives.
		The ultimate triumph of the film is the vastness of the Manhattan landscape that, like some man made nature, seems to overcome their messes, ultimately redeeming their small transgressions.

		Watch this film and cherish it's swooning romanticism and sharp analysis of middle class intellectual life; you will be delighted and want to watch it every time you see or read anything about NYC again...
		Ultimately, however, this is not a film about love, but rather a film about loss, because you just know that forced to make choices, Isaac is going to make the wrong ones.
		Of course, today this film is obviously open to reinterpretation given Allen's very public personal life and it is now assumed that the Isaac-Tracy relationship was a sign of things to come rather than a dramatic construction.

		If there is one criticism of the film, it is that it leaves a rather picture postcard impression of the city, but I suppose if it's love, then it's love.
		Much of the film appears to have been shot at either sunrise or sunset to soften the light, and there are spectacular views of the towers, bridges and waterways of America's finest metropolis.
		Other films may be better, like Annie Hall or Hannah and Her Sisters but, in Manhattan, all the elements of Allen's style are in perfect balance.

		Jennifer Wood (MM): What you’re doing with the Manhattan Short Film Festival is unique on a number of counts, but specifically in the judging process, where film fans are given the opportunity to let their inner critics out and judge this year’s 12 festival selections.
		Maybe there’s one person out of a million who might say ‘Let’s back that director.’ A film festival’s job is to make sure that as many people from as wide an audience as possible talk about that director and that that one in a million person sees the film.
		We have the films showing live in Union Square Park and live on the Internet simultaneously, which then goes into a live interview with the director after the film.

	Maid in Manhattan film review
		She pays the rent by working as a maid at one of Manhattan's swankiest five star hotels, where she is a valued employee - popular with the staff and head butler Lionel (Bob Hoskins), and ear-marked for promotion to Head Of Housekeeping.
		During a moment's weakness with her fellow maids, Marisa tries on a $2000 Chanel trouser suit owned by snooty VIP, Caroline Lane (Natasha Richardson), and is caught in the act by Republican candidate Chris Marshall (Ralph Fiennes), who takes the beautiful young woman to be the occupant of the room.
		Maid In Manhattan is as predictable as it is unlikely, recycling the Cinderella fairy-tale with a contemporary twist.

	Night Falls on Manhattan - Film Review: Keshvani Online
		Night Falls on Manhattan is 73-year-old director Sidney Lumet's 40th foray into the world of justice, its sense of morality and lack of it.
		The charismatic Andy Garcia stars as Sean Casey, an idealistic street cop turned Manhattan District Attorney who is thrust into the limelight after prosecuting in a high-profile, headline-grabbing case.
		Manhattan sure beats many recent movies when it comes to realism and pacing, depicting cramped courtrooms and disinterested attorneys.

		What's more, while festivals can certainly celebrate films purely as entertainment value, many tend to focus on movies that display definitive artistic merit, and in so doing manage to keep the creative aspect of the art form alive in the face of sometimes overwhelming commercialism that affects some portions of the industry.
		The mother of all film festivals, Venice is also the most artistically inclined.
		It remains to this day the most prestigious of festivals, showcasing around 600 films in various sections each year, with roughly 4000 film professionals and journalists in attendance.

		From then on, her life went down hill: intense drug abuse propelled her into a depressed, foggy existence and she committed suicide at the age of 28, shortly after this film was shot.
		Eccentrically cut, the film comprises two narratives, strung messily together as one.
		A New York-based, 60s-set thriller (shot atmospherically in fl and white) starring Sedgwick and her fellow superstars sits alongside a bleak portrait of Susan (Sedgwick, essentially playing herself) in 1971, broken and hopeless, spending her remaining days in her parents' home in California.

	Combustible Celluloid film review - Manhattan (1979), Woody Allen, Diane Keaton, Mariel Hemingway, dvd review
		The clue to that is something that David Thomson says in his Biographical Dictionary of Film -- that Mariel Hemingway in Manhattan is the "purest piece of acting" in all of Allen.
		On this level, Manhattan works just as well as any of his other screenplays (except for perhaps Annie Hall, which, on paper, is his best screenplay).
		These comedies were no better or no worse than other comedies of their day, but they were filmed in fl-and-white, which made them feel classic.
