New York Stories

ComedyDramaRomance124 min

Three New York tales from Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, and Woody Allen move from a painter’s studio to a Manhattan hotel to a family crisis blown up to city scale. Nick Nolte is the tormented artist at the center of “Life Lessons,” channeling heartbreak and jealousy into his work as his young assistant pulls away. “Life Without Zoë” follows a privileged 12-year-old making her way through hotel life and loneliness. In “Oedipus Wrecks,” Woody Allen’s anxious lawyer Sheldon Mills discovers that his overbearing mother has become impossible to escape, even in a city built for anonymity.
