A sparkling comedic chronicle of a young man’s romantic misadventures while trying to fit in to New York City’s debutante society, METROPOLITAN’s deft, literate dialogue and comical observations earned this first film an Academy Award nomination for best original screenplay. Beneath the wit and sophistication, though, lies a tender tale of adolescent anxiety.
