Manhattan - DVD
Nominated for two Academy-AwardsÂź and considered âone of (Woody) Allenâs most enduring accomplishmentsâ â BoxOffice
Manhattan is a wry, touching and finely rendered portrait of modern relationships set against the backdrop of urban alienation. Sumptuously photographed in black and white (Allenâs first film in that format) and accompanied by a magnificent Gershwin score. Allenâs aesthetic triumph is a âprismatic portrait of a time and a place that maybe studied decades hence (Time). Forty-two-year-old Manhattan native Isaac Davis (Allen) has a job he hates, a seventeen-year-old girlfriend, Tracy (Mariel Hemingway), he doesnât love, and a lesbian ex-wife, Jill (Meryl Streep), whoâs writing a tell-all book about their marriage...and whom heâd like to strangle.
But when he meets his best friendâs sexy intellectual mistress, Mary (Diane Keaton), Isaac falls head over heels in lust! Leaving Tracy, bedding Mary and quitting his job are just the beginnings of Isaacâs quest for romance and fulfilment . In a city where sex is as intimate as a handshake - and the gateway to true love...is a revolving door.
