The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

Last Updated: Dec 2012

Like most teenagers, Peter (Andrew Garfield) is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance - leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr Curt Connors, his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.

otsoNY Comments: In this scene, Spider-Man swings along Riverside Drive between 130th and 135th Streets in Harlem, and gets to paraphrase Dustin Hoffman’s famous line from the film, Midnight Cowboy “I’m swinging here”.
