Movie Reviews of New York, I Love You
Movie Review: The latest entry into the Cities of Love series is another major work
Summary: 5 Stars
In 2004 I watched -- and immediately went out to buy -- "Love Actually", which is set in London. The premise of these films is simple: several love stories, at different stages, all set in the same world-famous city, many interwoven with each other. For anyone unfamiliar with proper filmmaking, short films are always the entree for film students and others wanting to catch their lightning in a jar. For big-time directors like Brett Ratner of Rush Hour fame, it's an exacting exercise to encapsulate a completed idea into a very small space. Each segment runs about 7 or 8 minutes, then segues into the next. Last year I came across "Paris Je'Taime", which was another brilliant installment in this genre. Major actors, major directors, major writers, and the up-and-coming as well.
"New York I Love You" is the latest (and promised NOT to be the last, with a blurb about an upcoming "Shanghai I Love You" in the bonus features) in this series. Some reviewers thought the movie had no through-composed theme or narrative, which only exposes their ignorance. It's like saying the Bible has no through-composed theme or narrative. Both are COLLECTIONS of stories anthologised into one piece of work. "New York I Love You" is, to me, what pure non-Hollywood filmmaking is all about. It's probably what film festivals SHOULD be about. It also appeals to the younger generation who, beside being interested in their favourite stars appearing, will appreciate the brevity of the segments (love stories for short attention spans). It's stupid to compare this to a Woody Allen film simply because it's filmed in the Big Apple.
This film is highly recommended to anyone who likes love stories, who appreciates good acting and excellent directing/writing. It's a mini-seminar in how to make wonderful, accessible art films. I also highly recommend the other two movies mentioned in this review. Its only flaw is that the editing/segueways between a few of the shorts is poor. Love Actually (Widescreen Edition)and Paris, Je T'Aime (Paris, I Love You)are stronger in this area. All in all, it's still a near perfect movie, and each vignette features one of the most talked-about and oft-filmed co-stars of all time: the City of New York. DVD features two additional shorts -- one with a sepia-toned Kevin Bacon in Coney Island, and the second a very interesting"foreign" type film -- and interviews with some of the directors. Five stars all around, and buy it here 'cause it's cheapest!
