Night Falls on Manhattan is a 1996 American crime drama film written and directed by Sidney Lumet. Based on the novel Tainted Evidence by Robert Daley, the plot centers on a newly elected district attorney played by Andy García, who is eager to stamp out corruption within the New York City Police Department. Ian Holm, James Gandolfini, Lena Olin, Ron Leibman, and Richard Dreyfuss feature in principal supporting roles.
The film was a co-production of Paramount Pictures and Spelling Films. Theatrically distributed by Paramount Pictures on May 16, 1997, Night Falls on Manhattan explores criminal law, political corruption, and the repercussions of violence.[2] Following its initial release, it failed to garner any awards from mainstream organizations for its lead acting or production merits.
The film grossed nearly $10 million in domestic ticket receipts, and was met with mixed to positive critical reviews.
