Movies filmed in New York City through the years that I feel showcase the city as part of the atmosphere of the film, and encapsulate that moment in time.
The definition of 2025 for this list is "it was released where I could see it in the theater in the 2025 calendar year." Some of these had festival showings or were released in other countries
Movies people might find it surprising that I haven't seen as a film fan, especially with classics and horror movies, and the process of watching them. Not removing movies as I watch them. Just checking them
I love this theme of movies with at least one scene that takes place in a movie theater, but mostly this exists so I can shout out the opening scene of Tampopo.
