It's more late 60s/early '70s but I always thought "Boys in the Band" totally captured NYC in that period. Including that amazing apartment.

Godspell - you can see NYC from the top of the WTC.
Superman the movie - has some great location shots when not filmed in a studio set.
But my favorite is actually made in 1982 and it's a doozy: NEW YORK RIPPER. It captures NYC like nothing else.

Re:Summer of Sam
Adrien Brody's punk was an anachronism. The ironic Mohawk didn't hit the NYC scene until a few years after SoS.It wasn't even in the UK during the summer of Sam.He's also all worked out and toned. Punks were not at all interested in lifting weights and doing crunches. Even gay punks.
And what did Leguzamo's marriage and fucking around have to do with anything? Who cared? Was Lee trying to make some stupid parallel -- these Italian guys are all violent and hate women, whether they use a gun or their fists or their penises (Berkowitz was adopted and was ethnically Italian).
Most of Berkowitz's victims were middle class young people, not lowlife skeeves. None were married. None were punks with six pack abs and anachronistic Mohawks who hung out in lower Manhattan, where Berkowitz never went. Most of Berkowitz's victims were in Queens. They were young singles going to discos. Most of the terror was in Queens, where young women went to salons to have their long brown hair cut and bleached so they wouldn't fit the profile of the killer's preferred victims.
You may like SoS as a movie, but it's nothing like the real summer of 77. There was a movie out there just waiting to be made about the killings, the victims, the communities, the atmosphere, the investigation, the killer... but Summer of Sam wasn't it; not by a long shot. Scorsese did a much better job of evoking the 60s and 70s New York outer boroughs in Goodfellas.

"The Landlord" Beau Bridges stars:
At the age of twenty-nine, Elgar Enders "runs away" from home. This running away consists of buying a building in a black ghetto in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn. Initially his intention is to evict the black tenants and convert it into a posh flat. But Elgar is not one to be bound by yesterday's urges, and soon he has other thoughts on his mind. He's grown fond of the black tenants and particularly of Fanny, the wife of a black radical; he's maybe fallen in love with Lanie

For me, an iconic 70s view of NYC is in the James Bond movie Live and Let Die--there are amazing shots of Harlem at the time in it. It makes Harlem look at once terrifying and beautiful--they're a great scene where two thugs bring Bond into an alley overrun with weeds behind two tenements in order to shoot him, and its absolutely gorgeous.

R77, the museum scene in Dressed to Kill used the Philadelphia Museum because they couldn't get permission to film the interiors of any of the big NYC museums, but it was standing in for the Museum of Modern Art. Many of the exteriors are NYC, except some of the outdoor shots of Caine's office. They're studio sets.

Yes, charlie, Cliff Gorman was expected to be a star. In those days, Hollywood was pushing the edgy,offbeat, not-conventionally-handsome antihero as leading man. Eliot Gould, Donald Sutherland, Gene Hackman, Roy Scheider, Dustin Hoffman, Al Pacino, Richard Dreyfus.
Like Gorman, Pacino started out onstage as an edgy, streetsmart actor in The Indian Takes the Bronx. Gorman's Lenny was edgy, hyperactive and won much praise from culture vultures. He was all over print media as the next big young actor. It didn't happen for him. Either he wasn't great to work with or his looks were too offbeat. But he didn't even make it as a character actor. His films and stage appearances were few and far between.

R102 actually Looking for Mr. Goodbar is a terrible example because not even the location parts were filmed in NY - Brooks didn't want it to be an identifiable city. Stupid move. It's not a great movie to begin with, but it would have much more value today if at the very least it was a good time capsule of NY at the time.
Kramer vs Kramer is a good one, I think. It's a fun game to play how much looks the same/how much has changed. Madison Avenue was much more neighborhoody then it is now - although Carnegie Hill Madison still has that familial flavor to it. And of course, Melons (with the infamous wine glass breaking scene) is alive and never going anywhere. They have a still from that scene in the back of the restaurant.
Desperately Seeking Susan and After Hours are good time capsules of NY mid-80s downtown when it was still predominated by artists.

I agree on both counts.
Madison in the 60s and 70s (not the decades) changed in the early 80s when the 'Eurotrash' arrived and opened all those expensive clothes stores.
Carnegie Hill still has the old atmosphere.

R109 I don't see all that much of a difference, tbh (well, except for that taxi). The quality of the photograph is also a lot brighter and shinier in the 2012 one.
Although, speaking of that area, my mom actually got pickpocketed at Yellowfingers I believe it was 1978. She rarely carries cash with her but had just taken some out because we were going on vacation (though I was an infant at the time and not at the restaurant with her). I guess she put her bag down for a minute, and poof, when she looked inside the money was gone. But she was glad that at least they didn't take the bag.
R108 that's 66th street, isn't it? I recognize the pink townhouse down one block where Roger Viver is now. Obviously most of the buildings are the same (if not all of them), but the storefronts make that block far more..neighborhoody.

Most of the cast, even Babs, wear clothes that real people would wear in the Seventies. (You've been warned!) And the bodies are un-aerobicized as it was then.
