I first saw this movie years ago on AMC - I'd never heard of it but there wasn't anything else on, so I settled in to watch. After all, with the cast of stars including Rita Hayworth, Ginger Rogers, Henry Fonda, Charles Laughton and Edward G. Robinson, I figured it couldn't be too bad. I was wrong - it was GREAT! The story involves a tailcoat which is passed from one story to the next and affects the lives of each person who receives it. Some of the stories were pure 40's fluff and that's okay ... Read More

Other reviewers have given plenty of information regarding the general shape of this film--stars, cast, vignettes.

The tailcoat was first presented to Charles Boyer who was portraying wealthy actor Paul Orman. Boyer winds up getting shot by the husband ... Read More

While not less than the sum of the parts, Tales Of Manhattan really IS just parts. And some of the parts don't quite fit.
But you get your money's worth. A fine and hillarious segment with Henry Fonda and Ginger Rodgers. A brilliant, but desparately sad performance from Edward G. Robinson. A slow, boring and wildly implausible tale with Charles Boyer and Rita Hayworth. But she looks so beautiful, its almost beyond belief.
Rounding it out is a politically incorrect piece with ... Read More
