Reviews"By the early 1970s, New York's reign as a television and filmmaking capital seemed to be over. What a difference a few decades make. In Scenes From the City , James Sanders masterfully revises and expands his original book of the same title to capture the surge in movie and television production since 2006..." - The New York Times "...this book captures stories and images of one of the world's most filmed and most cinematic cities - New York. The locale is presented in all its iconic glory through landmark location films, beginning from the forties to the present. Rare and unusual photographs are accompanied by the commentary of actors, directors and other filmmakers. This film history is a great reminder of the force of landscape as a character in the history of cinema." - Malibu Times
