We celebrate Diane Keaton after her passing in October 2025 with a screening of her first New York-set collaboration with Woody Allen.
Isaac (Allen) is a comedy writer and would-be novelist dating Tracy, a 17-year-old student (Mariel Hemingway), but he falls for Mary (Keaton), the highly-strung journalist that his married buddy Yale (Michael Murphy) is seeing on the side. Nominated for two Academy Awards, and considered one of Allen’s most enduring accomplishments, ‘Manhattan’ is a wry, touching and finely rendered portrait of modern relationships set against the backdrop of urban alienation. New York has never been so sumptuously photographed, here in magnificent black and white cinemascope and accompanied by a magnificent Gershwin score. Also co-stars Meryl Streep.
