Mjeteconer Just perfect...
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
dougdoepke First part is full of bouncy fun as virginal Eileen (Fonda) struggles with raging hormones vs. traditional morality. Cut loose from her fiancée and roaming in New York, she and Mike (Taylor) meet cute on a bus and then try to handle their mutual attraction without admitting it. Meanwhile her pilot brother Adam (Robertson) tries to juggle a planned tryst with the luscious Mona (Morrow) with an ornery flight schedule, adding amusing results to the mix. This first part is fast-moving, clever, and adorned with many city backdrops. Then, however, things slow down in bumpy fashion once mistaken identities are added to the mix; at the same time, talk inside a single apartment set takes over.Note how the first part especially is studded with 1960's innuendo as 1934's Production Code censorship weakens. It's like the movie is flexing naughty muscles following a long 30-year jail term. Moreover, popular culture too is undergoing a similar sexual release, one soon to burst forth in a free-wheeling counter-culture. Certainly, Fonda has never been more radiant, while her spark and bounce carry the movie's main parts. To me, however, Taylor's casting as her chief romantic interest results in an awkward blend. He does his best in a farcical role, but lacks the light touch. Then too, his highly mature facial features and short stature just don't look like a maiden's dream, particularly for the bubbly Eileen. No wonder the fine dramatic actor went on to specialize in action features. On the other hand, Robertson, as Eileen's calculating brother, adds a note of beleaguered sanity to the zany occurrences, while Culp revels in the role of our girl's giddy fiancée.All in all, the movie's crux may be dated, but the mix is generally amusing; at the same time, Fonda appears to be having genuine good time.
SnoopyStyle Adam Tyler (Cliff Robertson) is a pilot working under Chief Pilot Drysdale (Jim Backus). His sister Eileen Tyler (Jane Fonda) is recovering after breaking up with boyfriend Russ Wilson (Robert Culp) from a rich family. She leaves home in Albany and surprises Adam in New York with a visit. The 23 year old virgin wonders if she is suppose to sleep with men after dating a certain amount of time. Adam insists that he doesn't sleep around but that's not the case. His latest partner is Mona Harris (Jo Morrow). Eileen meets Mike Mitchell (Rod Taylor) getting stuck together on a crowded bus.This is definitely a single gal from another era. Jane Fonda shows some real charm. The first pin isn't that funny but the second time is hilarious. Cliff Robertson and Jo Morrow are almost secondary on their side of the movie as Fonda outshines them all. She's in her mid 20's and starts her rise. It would have been nice for her to have a more animated partner.
pine-8 Saw this picture when it first came out (I was 16). NY looked great, Apartment in SNY still cool today 40 + years later! Have original soundtrack album with fantastic Peter Nero score, too bad no Mel Tormé swinging arrangement of title song on this album. At the 'hip' Club Nero, Peter plays song 'HELLO' which is also sung by someone in his combo, CANNOT find this performer's name or recording ANYWHERE?? Anyone out there know? BTW A nice trip back to great looking NY, and the morals of a sweeter gentler time...It's a great trip back to see IDLEWILD airport before it changed to ''KENNEDY''.Imagine the surprise of younger people seeing passengers boarding planes with no security, a little bit like stepping in to a first class restaurant!Must see flick!
squallseedre4 I am aware that my being a 17-year-old boy may place me in the minority, but I whole-heartedly enjoyed this movie. My dad kept telling me to watch this "sunday in new york," but I didn't want to because Maltin gave it three stars and Halliwell gave it one, and it was 6.something on IMDb. Eventually, I saw it and I actually really liked it. I never saw Jane Fonda in a role where she wasn't dirty, but she makes a great innocent character in this- better than Doris Day, in my opinion. The storyline works well, with some echoes of a Seinfeld-like plot and dialogue. If not for it's innocence, it might stand amongst the best movies of the decade, though I don't dislike it for that reason.Its main two flaws are probably the contradictions in style: it is a movie obviously targeted towards women, but the most likable character is Jane Fonda's, and she is unquestionably... open sexually in the film. The other issue is that the movie seemingly prides itself on being innocent and charming, but for 1963, the sex-related dialogue and situations the characters are put into make it "raunchy" for the time.Overall, I really liked this movie and think that it was hard done by through all three of the previously-mentioned critical sources. I didn't laugh once, but I rarely laugh in movies, so that's nothing to really go by.8 out of 10 overall.
