Teaser Trailer: “New York, I Love You”
“New York, I Love You,” from the producer of “Paris, Je T’aime,” is the latest star-studded ode to “love and life in the city” that is made up of 12 five-minute long short films, that is slated for release next year on the 13th of February. With a list of directors and cast members (Natalie Portman, Orlando Bloom, Christina Ricci, Shia LaBeouf, Irfan Khan, Julie Christie, John Hurt, Hayden Christensen, Rachel Bilson, Chris Cooper, Drea de Matteo, Ethan Hawke, Kevin Bacon and Olivia Thirlby) that is enough to make me, and anyone else I am sure, drool, it is set to be a highlight of next year for sure. It shall make an appearance at this year’s Toronto film festival as a sort of sneak peak, as it is not yet completed, and I shall be extremely jealous of anyone who gets to see it that soon.

Songs in trailer: Mika – “Love Today,” Regina Spektor – “Fidelity” and Feist – “1234″

I think this could be better than the Paris version. Just saying

Wow, what a wonderful trailer! Does anyone know the name of the songs in the trailer?
I haven’t seen Paris, je t’aime yet, though.

Hey Marcy :) It’s funny that you mention the songs, because I love them all and they are all constant fixtures on my iPod. I edited the post just for you!

I am one of those that will see it early, but I would rather see the finalised version and not just a sneak-peak…

I would go for it Kerry, at least you are seeing *some* of it, unlike the rest of us.

Kerry – I get what you are saying, but I must admit that if I had the chance to even see 5 minutes of the film, which would be one segment, I’d go for it. I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time now.

Didn’t Feist sing the song in the “Paris, Je T’aime” trailer [and film] as well? I loved it.

Yip, it is called “We’re All in the Dance,” and I love it so much as well.

As much as I love PARIS, JE’TAIME, I’m definitely looking forward to this one.

k – I always love seeing New York on the big screen (the closest I ever get to actually being there, it’s so sad) so I cannot wait until DVD.
Marcy – Pleasure :)
Matt – I loved “Paris Je T’aime,” but I think the cast of this one sounds great (Portman, Thirlby, Ricci and LaBeouf in the same movie? *faint*). So I am with you bud.

Yes, that’s the song, it really worked well with the film. I just downloaded it, and am getting ready to play it on a loop

Thanks for posting this Nick. I loved Paris je t’aime and I can’t wait for this one.

Me too man, me too. I think it could easily match “Paris,” but I am obviously taking it all at face value. I’m stoked, and let me just leave it at that.
