New York in the movies
Who could forget the iconic image of Audrey Hepburn peering through the shop window in Breakfast at Tiffany’s or Streisand and Redford’s goodbye scene in The Way We Were. Both were shot 40-plus years ago in the City That Never Sleeps—but journalist Christopher Maloney, on his addictive website FILMography, has shown that New York is also the city that never changes.
Using printed movie stills from films dating back to the 40s to present day, Maloney has reproduced more than 250 scenes from around the city. The restaurant shared by Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in You’ve Got Mail (1998) still looks the same, and the building flanked by a young Jon Voight in Midnight Cowboy (1969) hasn’t changed a bit.
New York City remains the cultural hub of the United States, and directors like Martin Scorcese and Woody Allen are determined to showcase it in their films. Lucky for us viewers, we can see the Big Apple over and over—window-dressed differently by any given filmmaker—and still believe we’re seeing it for the first time.
