"From the silent era, when Paramount had its East Coast operations in Astoria, Queens (right next to where Museum of the Moving Image currently stands) to the explosion of on-location city filming in the 1950s to the 1970s renaissance of gritty realism and beyond, New York has been one of the movies’ great locations for either authenticity or outsized fantasy. In this ongoing series, MoMI presents classic and contemporary films that were made right here in New York."–Museum of the Moving Image
