I am looking for your recommendations of 70's movies set in 70's New York.
I have seen an enjoyed Annie Hall, Manhattan, French Connection, Saturday Night Fever etc,.
Anything that captures the mood and feel of the 1970's New York interests me so if you have any titles to put into the hat I thank you in advance.

A list of New York-based movies of the 70's would have to include almost any Woody Allen movie (except Love And Death) and a lot of Neil Simon plays/movies.
But also include...
Taxi Driver The Seven Ups Where's Poppa? Across 110th Street Kramer Vs. Kramer Shaft Death Wish Bang The Drum Slowly Klute Marathon Man An Unmarried Woman The Sunshine Boys The Out Of Towners (the original 1970 version) The Panic In Needle Park Joe Plaza Suite Network King Kong Mean Streets Love At First Bite The Landlord (a truly underrated film!) All That Jazz Three Days Of The Condor Superman The Taking of Pelham One Two Three
I was going to include New York, New York and the Godfathers, #1 and #2, but they take place in the 1940's.
Hope this helps! Posted by jayeh1969 (Member # 4654) on :

And many classic Sesame Street clips also evoke the feel of 70s New York as well.
