A woman’s virtue was a more delicate thing in older films than it is in more modern ones, but in the 60s and 70s the trend shifted away from female leads as swooning romantic interests gradually bedazzled by the manly men starring opposite of them. Consequently, we ended up with strong female leads and films more willing to explore the ideas of an emergent female sexuality. One such film tackling both of these ideas is Sunday in New York. It was hot on the tale of the similar Sex and the Single Girl starring Tony Curtis, Natalie Wood, Henry Fonda and Lauren Bacall – and with that in mind, you can’t help but feel that Sunday in New York was another studios follow-up competition film, so that it had a title with similar themes and audience drawing power.
