Sidewalks of New York gets the fundamentals right first, then finds room to get weird with it. The film follows the marital and dating lives of three men and three women who unknowingly form a tangled web of relationships. Interspersing "man on the street" interviews with scenes from the six characters' lives, the film weaves a humorous and biting commentary on the game of love -- easy to start, hard to finish. The chemistry Edward Burns and Heather Graham bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. It hit screens in 2001.
