Radio humorist Henry Morgan made his film debut in So This is New York. Based on The Big Town, a collection of stories by Ring Lardner, the film traces country bumpkin Morgan's progress as he uses an inheritance to take a trip with his wife Virginia Grey and sister-in-law Dona Drake to the New York of the 1910s. He encounters numerous oddball characters, the most colorful of which is a drunken jockey Leo Gorcey. The boxer and at least four other Broadwayites Hugh Herbert, Rudy Vallee, Bill Goodwin and Jerome Cowan complicate Morgan's life when they court his wife's sister--most of them hoping for a slice of that inheritance. The movies were not the ideal medium for the satiric barbs of Henry Morgan, though he plays his role well and carries the film with assurance. In addition to being Morgan's first picture, So This is New York was also the maiden voyage for producer Stanley Kramer.
