Drei Episoden über das Leben in New York, inszeniert von drei großen Reguisseuren: Martin Scorsese erzählt von einem Künstler (Nick Nolte) und seiner Geliebten (Rosanna Arquette), Francis Ford Coppola von der vereinsamten Tochter eines Künstlerehepaars. Und in Woody Allens Episode geht es um einen Stadtneurotiker (Woody Allen), der von seiner Mutter dominiert wird. (Premiere)

Die erste Erzählung recht gut, die zweite schrecklich und die dritte hervorragend. Alle Achtung für Martin Scorsese und Francis Ford Coppola, doch Woody zeigte wieder einmal, dass er unerreicht ist. Und wer sonst würde die Geschichte eines Helden drehen, den das Phantom seiner eigenen Mutter verfolgt. Dank Woody weisen die New Yorker Geschichten Qualität auf.

Schwach bis extrem schwach. Scorsese verfolgt die Romanze zwischen einem Künstler und seiner Muse in Gestalt von Nick und Rosanna. Coppola gibt der Welt seiner Tochter Sofia, die sich als Drehbuchautorin abrackert, eine Chance... und schließlich dreht Allen eine weitere Variante von dem, was Mia gespielt hat (und zerstört als Bonus die komödiantischen Talente von Mae Questel). Als Statistin ist die sehr kleine Kirsten Dunst in der Rolle der Tochter Mia zu sehen. Oh, ups. Jeder hat irgendwie angefangen.

Three short stories directed by three masters. Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, and Francis Ford Coppola. Martin Scorsese shows what a talent he has for strong characters and how well he manages their destinies. The painter played by Nick Nolte is excellent. Woody Allen once again plays his neurotic self, but in this case, he is unbelievably charming, primarily thanks to his film mom. And finally, Francis Ford Coppola, who also does not disappoint, but it's as if he doesn't quite fit with the other two. After all, Scorsese and Allen have New York much more ingrained in them, both through life experiences (Coppola is from Detroit) and cinematically.

Given the population of New York, it is possible to compare the creation of a film to a situation when a producer challenges three directors who shoot in different styles and for a different audience to create something. The individual stories would stand on their own at least among fans of the respective director, but together it doesn't work and moreover, I have a feeling that in neither case is it a piece that stands high amongst the works of the directors. All three stories have a certain detachment and elements of humor of varying intensity. Although I am a fan of Woody Allen, I was most intrigued by Scorsese's story. Overall impression: 60%.

In this short story showdown, in my eyes, Woody Allen is the clear winner, closely followed by Martin Scorsese, with Francis Ford Coppola trailing behind. This might have been slightly influenced by the fact that he's the only one of the three who wasn't born in New York City. Since Woody Allen really amused me with his excellent satire about his ever-supervising mother, I reflected this in the final rating by adding one extra star.
