Synopsis

AUTUMN IN NEW YORK follows the sexual exploits of Will Keane (Richard Gere) - New York restaurateur, infamous, approaching 50 playboy, master of the no-commitment seduction - until he meets Charlotte Fielding (Winona Ryder) who is half Will's age and twice his match, a 21 year-old free spirit yearning to get out and taste the excitement of adult life.

Will indulges his interest in Charlotte, expecting yet another quick and easy romance, but nothing about Will and Charlotte's encounters are quick or easy. Then, just as Will attempts to escape from the relationship with his usual line about "not promising forever," Charlotte has her own reasons to believe things absolutely can't last - she's dying!
