# So This Is New York (1948)

1948 · 79 min · Comedy · United States


## Synopsis

So This Is New York is a 1948 American satirical comedy film starring Henry Morgan and directed by Richard Fleischer. The cynically sophisticated screenplay was written by Carl Foreman and Herbert Baker from the 1920 novel The Big Town by Ring Lardner; Foreman was blacklisted soon after. It remains the only film in which Morgan plays the leading role, and the material was tailored to showcase the cynical persona he had developed for his radio show.
