"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
Autumn in New York | 2000 | PG-13 | - 4.1.5
In this melodrama, Richard Gere plays an older man who falls in love with a younger woman who's dying (Winona Ryder). Also with Vera Farmiga, Jamie Harrold, Anthony LaPaglia and Sherry Stringfield. [1:45]
SEX/NUDITY 4 - Some sexual innuendo and some kissing (a few times it's passionate). A couple lies in bed together and kisses passionately, then they have intercourse (we only see what appears to be body movement through a steamy window and some close-ups of her pleasured facial expressions). We see an obviously nude but mostly sheet-covered woman in bed; it's implied she spent the night with a man. A clothed couple lie in bed together. A woman wears a slightly cleavage-revealing nightgown.

VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - A woman slaps a man on the arm and pushes him away. A person falls down a couple times from a heart condition. A person in a hospital bed has tubes in both nostrils; eventually this person dies (we don't see it happen, though).
LANGUAGE 5 - 2 F-words, a few anatomical and scatological references, several mild obscenities, a few religious obscenities and some insults.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Terminal disease, falling in love, commitment, infidelity, womanizing, loss of a parent, loss of a lover, death, casual sex, deadbeat dads, lying, older men/younger women relationships.
MESSAGE - Go for the one you love even if you know you'll soon lose that person.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
