Barefoot in the Park

about that, listeners.

But would you consider even Barefoot in the Park a farce? Because it is heightened to a certain level.

There is some unbelievability to it, as opposed to, say, An All in the Family or Mary Tyler Moore, which was not a farce.

Well, the idea of farce also, I never heard about the difference until I was at the barter.

That's future President Donald Trump who owned the plaza when the movie was filmed.

The hotel has also appeared in Hollywood classics like North by Northwest, Barefoot in the Park, and Funny Girl.

Matt Murphy,

Fox News.

Whether it's romantic, that seems to be perhaps changing in terms of the popular culture there.

I know the Associated Press story had some movies where there's been famous horse-drawn carriage scenes, like Barefoot in the Park and that.

For me, it's the one, and I always think, though, of Seinfeld.

Seinfeld, I was going to go there.

To others, horse-drawn carriages, like cobblestone streets, are charming throwbacks to New York's past.

Enshrined on screen in Barefoot in the Park, Jane Fonda and Robert Redford, Sex and the City, Carrie and Mr.

Big, and The Muppets take Manhattan, Kermit and Miss Piggy.

If they disappeared after more than 160 years, what would we lose? After Romance's death, a poll sponsored by the Conservancy found that 68% of New Yorkers favored a carriage ban.

It's called Fools.

It's by Neil Simon, who of course wrote Barefoot in the Park, The Odd Couple, and all these great classic comedies.

It's probably his least known show.

But it is just as funny as the other shows he's ever written.

If, uh, we're turning the channels, a- as if you turn the channels anymore, if we see this listed anywhere, then f- forget it, it's all we're gonna watch.

1967's Barefoot in the Park, uh, with an extremely young Jane Fonda and an extremely young, uh, Robert Redford.

Redford.A- have you guys seen this movie? It's a Neil-

Yeah

So, so, so n- none.

I'm just gonna read out the 15 that we have on there.

Taxi Driver, Gangs of New York, The Warriors, Ghostbusters, King Kong, Barefoot in the Park, When Harry Met Sally, Tootsie, The Odd Couple, Working Girl, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, Annie Hall, Death Wish, My Favorite Year, and Night Shift.

[laughs] I mean, all these are great movies.
