Abstract

For this presentation, I have chosen to talk about new york city, also known as "the Big Apple" or the "city that doesn't sleep". When french people hear about the United States, they often imagine how exciting the life might be in new york. The name itself suggests to the foreigners a marvelous place where everyone must be because everything is possible. The writer Tom Wolfe once said that in new york "culture just seems to be in the air, like part of the weather". In our imagination a real myth of new york city does exist.

The movie-goer that I want to base this as presentation is precisely on what can be called "popular culture". The image of the town is used in many films or TV series, and the most recent of them might be Spider-Man 3. In these many movies, new york is at first an amazing place with high buildings and dissimilar boroughs. Then, new york is a culture made of jazz, musicals and art. But new york is above all the new Yorker, a peculiar kind of human beings.
