The fornication is not particularly graphic, but it, and an occult tone, definitely taint this convoluted soap opera Content: Furthermore, although his relationship with Charlotte appears to redeem Will from his sins, the means of that redemption is partly through their sexual immorality or fornication with one another.
For example, Charlotte becomes a kind of reincarnated person, a ghost from Will’s past who haunts him and brings him to his senses so to speak. Also, the movie’s redemptive and, at one important point, even Christian, symbolism, is undercut by its New Age pagan worldview. Some beautiful photography cannot save AUTUMN IN NEW YORK’s shallow characterization, choppy editing and weird story developments. Charlotte thinks her “love” can redeem Will, but Will’s sexually promiscuous character endangers their relationship. If that weren’t enough, Will discovers that Charlotte has a possibly fatal heart condition. Charlotte’s secret family roots, when revealed to Will, provoke echoes from Will’s sinful past. In the movie, Ryder’s character, Charlotte, is a 21-year-old, childlike milliner who finds romance with a 48-year-old New York playboy and restaurant owner, Will Keane, played by Richard Gere. Winona Ryder plays a weird Christ figure in AUTUMN IN NEW YORK.
