Manhattan Bridge in the Movies

This iconic image is from Sergio Leone's classic 1984 film "Once Upon A Time In America", which starred Robert DeNiro.

The view down Washington Street in Brooklyn's DUMBO remains largely unchanged to this day - minus the debris.

The Empire State Building is visible through the uprights of the bridge if you move slightly to your left in the street, and often the street is closed for film and music video shoots.
