Description of this New York, New York Movie Poster
New York, New York is a 1977 American musical drama film directed by Martin Scorsese and written by Mardik Martin and Earl Mac Rauch from a story by Rauch. It is a musical tribute to Scorsese’s hometown of New York City, featuring new songs by John Kander and Fred Ebb as well as jazz standards. Liza Minnelli and Robert De Niro play a couple of musicians and lovers. The story is “about a jazz saxophonist (De Niro) and a pop singer (Minnelli) who fall madly in love and marry”; however, “the saxophonist’s outrageously volatile personality continually tests their relationship, and after they have a baby, their marriage crumbles,” even as their careers develop on separate paths.
On VJ Day in 1945, a huge party is held at a New York City nightclub, featuring Tommy Dorsey’s orchestra. It’s there that the egotistical, smooth-talking saxophonist Jimmy Doyle (De Niro) meets Francine Evans (Minnelli), a small-time USO singer who, though lonely, wants nothing to do with Jimmy, who keeps asking for her phone number.
The next morning, they end up sharing a cab and, against her wishes, Francine accompanies Jimmy to an audition. There, he gets into a fight with the club owner. Francine, to get the audition back on track, begins singing an old standard, “You Brought a New Kind of Love to Me”; Jimmy accompanies her on the saxophone. The club owner is impressed and, to Francine’s astonishment, they are both offered jobs as a traveling boy-girl band. From that moment on, Jimmy and Francine’s relationship turns into a mixture of obsession and love. But there are problems—mainly Jimmy’s tendency to fight with his coworkers, his overly dramatic behavior, and his increasingly violent arguments with Francine, who becomes pregnant by his child. During one particularly violent altercation between them, Francine goes into labor. Jimmy rushes her to the hospital, where she delivers a baby boy. But Jimmy isn’t ready to be a father, or a good husband, and he abandons his wife, refusing even to see his newborn when he leaves the hospital.
Several years later, in a recording studio, Francine records “But the World Goes Round,” a powerful anthem that hits the charts and makes her a popular entertainer. In the years that follow, both Jimmy and Francine find success in the music industry; He becomes a renowned jazz musician and club owner, while she becomes a successful singer and film actress.
Jimmy records one of his songs on the saxophone, which goes to the top of the jazz charts, and Francine cements her fame by singing the same song, “New York, New York,” for which she wrote the lyrics. Her show, received by an enthusiastic audience, takes place in the same nightclub where, years earlier, she and Jimmy had met. After the show, Jimmy calls his ex-wife and asks her to have dinner. Francine is tempted, heads for the stage exit, but changes her mind at the last moment. Jimmy, waiting on the sidewalk, realizes he’s been stood up and takes to the street, accompanied by the song he wrote, the “Theme from New York, New York.”
