Before she became a great star and a two-time Academy Award winner,* Jane Fonda was a screen ingenue who sent a string of bubbly romantic comedies soaring, including this charmer from the prolific pen of Norman Krasna (Bachelor Mother, The Devil and Miss Jones). Fonda portrays a virginal miss blessed with long limbs and a knockout profile who runs off from her fiance (Robert Culp) to the swingin' pad of her brother (Cliff Robertson) and then into the arms of a guy she meets on the 5th Avenue bus (Rod Taylor) -- all the while trying to decide if she'll say "yes" before she says "I do." Filmed on location, Sunday in New York is a fun, sophisticated romp set to a hip Peter Nero score that features Mel Torme singing the title tune.
If you can't believe your brother, whom can you believe?

This movie is a product of its time. This is one of a collection of great 60s comedies like “Any Wednesday” (1966).
Eileen Tyler (Jane Fonda) is being told that being virtuous until one is married is the ideal. That is not easy with all the men in her life. After losing so many times and her last boyfriend, she decides to make an adjustment and not be the last virgin in New York.
Just look at her brother. But do not look in his closet, or the story will begin.
Poor Mike Mitchell (Rod Taylor), who just happened to get stuck on her in a bus, is drawn in and out, like a yo-yo.
Also, the Restaurant scene can not be surpassed.
Flights keep being missed.
