''New York, New York'' is a Movie directed by Martin Scorsese , released in 1977 . It starred Robert De Niro and Liza Minnelli as a pair of musicians and lovers. Made after Scorsese's successful (and controversial) '' Taxi Driver ,'' this musical tribute to Scorsese's home town of New York City was a box-office failure, and the disappointing reception drove him into depression and drugs. It's regarded by many as one of Scorsese's rare failures, Scorsese himself shares this view. The theme song of the film, " New York, New York ," found its own success when famed singer Frank Sinatra recorded a cover of the song in 1979 . The song was a popular success, and Sinatra's version has become closely associated with the city of New York. |
