After the best part of a decade spent adrift of past glories, Lou Reed looked to his ... more
immediate environment for inspiration and produced
with his most acclaimed work since The Velvet
Underground disbanded. The narrator of songs such
as "Sunset Boulevard" and "Good Evening Mr
Waldheim" though, couldn't be more different to
the drug-addled nihilist who wrote "Waiting For
The Man". In New York, drugs are still part of
everyday life, but Reed's spleen is targeted at
the forces responsible for such social
malaise--none of which would matter, of course,
were it not for the stripped down garage sound
which substantially loosens the mood. Doubters may
suggest we be spared from another reformed rebel
turned concerned parent, but if there's anything 
objectionable about New York, it's the regrettable
mullet hairstyle sported by its author--a far
greater crime than any that recur in his lyrics.

Take a Liberty with big band music
Review of New York, New York (Special Edition) by arnoldhenryrufus

Advantages: Liza Minnelli lovely singing voice
Disadvantages: Not everyone likes musicals

~~ NEW YORK, NEW YORK ~~ Another movie from my musical collection and believe it or not before this viewing I had never seen it before, so I had no idea what to expect. I was also quiet surprised that it was a relatively young film, compared to a lot of good musicals, it opened in America in 1977. I knew the song New York, New York by Frank Sinatra, but I had never heard of the film. ~~ The Film ~~ The movie tells the complicated love story of ...
...~~ You Brought A New Kind Of Love To Me: This is the first song that shows the sparks of love between Francine and Jimmy as well as their musical talents. This song was originally song by Maurice Chevalier in the 1930 film The Big Pond and was written by Sammy Fain and Irving Kahal. You Are My Lucky Star: A lovely production number with Francine singing with Frankie Harte's band, it is truly a lovely melody. The song was previous performed by Gene ... Read review

New York, New York (Special Edition)

Main specs

Actor(s): Liza Minnelli, Robert De Niro, Diahnne Abbott, Dick Miller, Mary Kay Place, Barry Primus, Lionel Stander, George Memmoli

Director(s): Martin Scorsese

Genre: Musicals & Music Films - Musicals & Other Music Films

Classification: Parental Guidance

Production Year: 1977

Running Time: 2 hours 36 minutes

Plot: Martin Scorsese's NEW YORK, NEW YORK is a sparkling, nostalgic look at the big-band era of the 1940s, as well as the MGM musicals of the 1940s and 1950s. The story concerns Jimmy Doyle (Robert De Niro), an aspiring saxophonist who meets and is at first rejected by singer Francine Evans (Liza Minelli). When they continue to bump into each other, a friendship blossoms, followed by romance, and then marriage. All the while, both musicians struggle to succeed at their craft, which begins to put an unbearable strain on their relationship. Eventually, this weight becomes too heavy to handle, leading the couple into a traumatic separation. Scorsese's obvious love for this era of music--as well as cinema--is overflowing throughout the picture, from the set pieces to the costumes to the musical numbers. Most striking is the brutally realistic depiction of a disintegrating marriage, filmed in a series of long, tense takes. De Niro and Minelli jump headlong into their characters, which results in a film that is a challenging viewing experience but emotionally rewarding to the dedicated viewer. As usual, Scorsese's meticulous visual presentation is flawless, as is the film's soundtrack, which recaptures the big-band era with reverence and passion.
