Fran Lebowitz: Si c'était une ville...

Been feeling a little isolated and lonely. This show is fantastic. I could listen to Miss Lebowitz all day. I love her perspective on life. Lots of laughs

What a wonderful treat this is! The concept of the film is incredibly simple. It's a conversation but really it is Fran talking. About everything, mostly about NYC and also about everything. And to see Scorsese barely saying 2 words but laughing hard almost throughout it, yet to be completely gripped is such a surprise. You hang onto Fran's every word.

My personal favourite so far, I haven't finished the series - I'm on episode 6 and don't want to finish it just yet so I can enjoy it for a bit longer - my favourite moment so far is Fran talking about believing all the women who have called out the men taking advantage of them or abusing them: the me to movement. It is so empowering and validating because, as a woman who was once a girl and a young woman, I have been through all that and think exactly like Fran. This is just a small nugget of beauty of the whole series. There are so many, many more moments like this.

And what adds to its beauty is the fact that a woman who talks about being so angry and is ranting and raging about this and that can talking about things that are so inspiring and moving and hopeful. Thank you for such a treat.

This series is mandatory viewing for all New Yorkers and strongly recommended for anyone else, whether you've visited, intend to visit, or wouldn't be caught dead here.

Fran Lebowitz and Martin Scorsese capture the feeling of the city from the 70s to the present perfectly. I've been here more or less the whole time and I just sat and marveled. Plus, one can't say enough about the editing, the music and the overall presentation of Fran Lebowitz's wit and wisdom. She's an unusual person and this is an unusual film, all in a good way. It's the perfect film for these times.

Amazing dynamic between Marty and Fran! And Fran is probably the funniest person I know. I have never been in New York and that didn't take anything away for me.

I could listen to Fran Lebowitz all day. A lot of her observations are astute, clever and very funny. She's brilliant at describing New York and New York life, mixed in with a little of her personal biography, I was left wanting to know more about her. She would make a mint if she ever wrote her memoirs.
