There are many movies around and about cities.
This Curbed piece gathers together 101 into a useful resource.
This list includes picks as diverse as the cities they celebrate. There are documentaries and shorts showcasing city life; science fictions and dystopias imagining our sometimes-bleak urban future; and cinematic classics-turned-totems for the places we live and love.
There are related videos, although some of the links are now broken as the post is from 2018.
Nonetheless, it suggests some excellent films to catch up with.
Such as 'Do the Right Thing' by Spike Lee.
Spike Lee’s masterpiece is many things: a prescient look at gentrification and police violence, an exploration of America’s simmering racial tensions, a visual and auditory joy. It’s also a tight-knit picture of life on a single Brooklyn street in the summer, showing and celebrating the interconnectedness of urban life.
