When Carol Lipton (Keaton) hears about the sudden death of her neighbour, Lillian (Lynn Cohen), she immediately suspects foul play as Lillian's husband Paul (Jerry Adler) appears too happy to her. As Carol comes up with theories about what might have happened, she begins to spy on Paul and reluctantly gets her husband, Larry (Allen), involved in helping her solve the mystery.

ReviewsChicago Sun-Times - ...MANHATTAN MURDER MYSTERY is an accomplished balancing act..., Variety - ...This confection keeps the chuckles coming....As neurotic a farce as can be imagined, and Allen and Brickman have amusingly festooned the plot with an array of topical and psychological concerns..., New York Times - ...At its amiable best, the new film offers glimmers of its stars' charming, quarrelsome old teamwork....Gratifyingly gentle and uncomplicated...

Additional InformationWoody Allen and Diane Keaton join forces again in this charming riff on such murder mystery classics as REAR WINDOW, DOUBLE INDEMNITY, and THE LADY FROM SHANGHAI. Allen and Keaton play Larry and Carol Lipton, a New York couple reevaluating their life together after their only son goes off to college. Carol thinks they have fallen into a boring life, but when one of their neighbors suddenly dies, Carol starts wondering if foul play was involved. Thrust further into the mystery by their friends Ted (Alan Alda) and Marcia (Anjelica Huston), the Liptons soon find themselves in the middle of murder and mayhem, with their relationship--as well as their lives--hanging in the balance. Seeing Allen and Keaton interact onscreen again, after a hiatus of several years, is a joy. The film moves at a fast pace, with Allen's trademark fabulous shots of New York landmarks. But the ending, which marvelously mimics the famous ending from Orson Welles's THE LADY FROM SHANGHAI, is a tour de force that should not be missed.
