New York Movie is a 1939 oil-on-canvas painting by American artist Edward Hopper. Begun in December 1938 and completed in January 1939, the painting depicts a nearly empty movie theater with a few patrons and a contemplative usherette. Known for its sophisticated depiction of multiple light sources, New York Movie is regarded as one of Hopper's most accomplished works.
