In many respects it resembles ''Film/AnnieHall'': not only because a female protagonist is played in both films by Diane Keaton but also because it shows that the most important problems associated with relationships simply cannot be solved once and for ever - all this in a typical Allenian sweet-and-sour, self-ironic mood. However, in ''Manhattan'' the distinction between primary and secondary characters is much more fluent, so the movie is more about the particular situations than persons. One of the important subjects explored is maturity and its relation to the conflict between emotions and reason; however, this being a Woody Allen movie, it is mainly about love, human imperfection and the difficulties which stem from them.

The plot revolves around a group of intellectual, semi-bohemian friends living in Manhattan, every one of whom has his own problems, intertwining with those of the others. Isaac "Ike" Davis (Allen) is a [[AuthorAvatar neurotic, self-ironic]], impulsive, middle-aged aspiring writer, whose wife Jill (Creator/MerylStreep), the mother of his son Willie, divorced him after discovering that [[IncompatibleOrientation she's in fact a lesbian]] and now is writing an autobiographical novel about their former relationship. Tracy (UsefulNotes/AcademyAward nominated Mariel Hemingway), his 17-year-old lover, has to deal with her growing love towards Ike and the age difference between her and the majority of Ike's friends. Ike's friend Yale (Creator/MichaelMurphy) dreams of becoming a writer, even though his wife Emily (Anne Byrne) strongly suggests that it's time to settle down and have kids; his life changes even more when he meets Mary (Creator/DianeKeaton), an extroverted, erudite journalist. Mary quickly becomes infatuated, but it is hard for her to say whether the object of her feelings is Ike or Yale. Also in the mix are Mary's ex-boyfriend Jeremiah (Creator/WallaceShawn) and Jill's new partner Connie (Karen Ludwig). First, HilarityEnsues, then, as usual in Allen's works, things become more complicated.
