New York, I Love You

(USA, 2008, 101 minutes)

Ten love stories set in New York City. The second compendium in the Cities of Love series, after Paris Je t'aime, is a makeshift collection of indistinguished, mostly slight shorts that could have been set anywhere in the world; a couple of them do stand out, but not enough to pull up the film.
