18″x24″ map of the history of films set in New York ... more specifically, all the movies I could cram into a tiny 12-square-mile chunk of Manhattan. There’s exactly 91 movies on here. Can you name them all?
Well, because I'm just that much of a nerd, here are the ones I don't have:

11. [Guy sitting cross-legged on ice rink? with stars around the edge. Girl approaching him Central Park-ish.]
14. Kissing Jessica Stein? [women kissing, one in suit, Central Park-ish]
22. [Two guys behind desk, pouring beer or liquor into cups or cans, east side near Queensboro bridge]
46. [three women posing on brick wall, kind of Stage Door-y]
73. [darker skinned guy pouring large jug into lighter-skinned guy’s jug]
77. [man with drill in bathroom mirror]
78. [woman being pulled by chariot of four men sort of in Soho area near Ground Zero?]

Any ideas?

14. Cruel Intentions
73. Die Hard With A Vengeance
77. Pi

I'm guessing 78 is The Wiz.

That's the original poster for "How to Marry a Millionaire."

I don't see the numbers on the map. How do I do that?

I still can't see the numbers.

Oops, I didn't read Trul's comment carefully. Sorry.

The numbers can be seen here.

Of the ones I can't get, the one that feels like I should be able to get is 89.
posted by Trurl 05 May | 19:34
Thanks, Trurl. I don't know 89 either.
posted by LoriFLA 05 May | 20:00
I think 89 is Naked City, but I could be wrong. It's the right bridge for it.

11 is Serendipity. I'm sad that I know this.

The only one I still don't have is 78. Gaaaaah.

Oh I figured 78 was Planet of the apes?

GOT IT. And no, it's not.
