That photographer in the background is representing everything I would feel if I saw these two legends in front of me. Too bad they couldn't combine for anything better than New York, New York. I wonder whether whatever DeNiro said was actually funny, or if that is just Minelli's put-on laughing face. The world may never know.

New York, New York: The Photo

Don't hate on New York, New York!
I was just going to say. It's so underrated. (particularly Liza's performance)
Though I will say that though I'm generally fond of super long takes I do feel in this case it sometimes felt like Scorsese just wasn't sure what he wanted a few of the scenes to say so he just let the camera keep rolling.
Minelli -- sometimes i don't know what to make of her. What a great photo!
Nat, a lot of NY,NY (fab movie) was improvised so the long cuts were probably put in place to make sure the movie made a tiny bit of sense (since it's quite chaotic as it is).
Great photo.
