Autumn in New York Customer Reviews (10 - 12 of 24 Reviews)

Wonderful heartfelt movie that will make you cry FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! empty skull, sniff.
Although it is true that this is not a perfect movie, there is a real chemistry between the main charachters that most people don't seem to realize. Mr. Ryder and Mr. Gere are both wonderful actors and thier sense of inner spirit and espre-de-cour was able to compensate for a rather weak script. The movie is quite slow to start with Winona Ryder meeting Gere at the resterant. The movie then picks up the pace some and both the audience and Mr. Gere fall in love with Ms. Ryder beauty, charm, grace, and quiet dignity in the face of death. Her portrayal of Charlotte is inspiring and brave. Mr. Gere also does a fine and creditable job as the playboy gentleman who falls for the rare beauty. This movie is sad and won't be a good movie to see if you want to see action or happy joy joy, but if you want to see Richard Gere and Winona Ryder acting their hearts out in a movie I feel worthy of Oscar consideration, please feel free to rent or (if you like it) buy it.

Thank you BB

A Beautiful, Old Fashioned Screen Romance. FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! empty skull, sniff. empty skull, sniff.
If "Autumn in New York" were a Remake, you'd Swear that the Original would have starred and Older Cary Grant and the Ever Youthful Audrey Hepburn. It's Lack of Originality and Surprise is Not Enough to Offset the Beauty that the film Delivers in Spades, or the Enjoyment that one gets from such an Old Fashioned Love Story.

Winona Ryder and Richard Gere are both Very Charming in the Romantic Roles that they inhabit in this film. These Attractive Leads are supported by Attractive Co-stars (Jill Hennessy, Anthony LaPaglia, Sherry Stringfield and Vera Farmiga), let's not forget the Attractive Directing (by Actress turned Director Joan Chen), Attractive Cinematography and Attractive Production Values that the film Also Provides. Who needs Originality or Classic Dialogue when we get such Beautiful Images in their place. Honestly, what the film Does lack in Story and Script, it makes up for in Other ways.

The Best Scenes in the Film don't even involve Gere and Ryder's Romance; they involve the Mysterious Lisa, played Wonderfully by Newcomer Vera Farmiga. She is Beautiful, she brings out the Best in Gere and her scenes are just So well Written. Her scenes raise some Delicate Issues and they are Handled Honestly and they Cleverly Avoid Clichés.

I only gave the film 3 stars as it Is quite a Forgettable film in the end, no matter How much I enjoyed watching it, I Know I won't enjoy it Half as much on it's Next viewing. It's a Fluffy, Forgettable Love story that should please All fans of Romance films.

Just how it really is! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY!
I can't believe that this film has been criticised so badly! It just tells a very different love story which does exist a lot more than we think! I once had a relationship just like Charlotte has with Will! The young woman flattered, the "older" (not old!) guy just having fun at first ("No future!" and flings with ex-girlfriends)- hey that does sound familiar to me! The relationship is caught very realistic and down to earth. The chemistry between Gere and Ryder is there, just different for it is a different relationship. The friends act as expected, finding it wrong at first but get along with it after a while. And in addition to that story: New York at its best with autumn colours, wonderful music and two actors very nice to look at (Gere still an eye-catcher!)! What else do we want?
