I did go through it first before posting here but as I'm not a pro I thought I'd ask. But thanks for reply. My first thought was that the ceiling was lit by a light which then acted a sort of diffuser so I wasn't that far off.

Hi everyone, I have always loved the 1979 movie Manhattan by Woody Allen for it's cinematic look and amazingly beautiful black and white and underexposed scenes (thanks to Gordon Willis) and of course for the compelling story and acting. I'm trying to learn more about lighting at the moment and It would be great to get some input on how they lit this particular scene. The scene I'm thinking of is the one where's he is on his sofa talking into the tape recorder.
