"The Cosmopolitans" is a 25-minute live action movie from 2014. The writer and director is Oscar nominee Whit Stillman and here we have a rare excursion from him to the small screen. This could have been the pilot episode for a long-running show actually, but it turned out the opposite. It was not picked up and so the characters we see in here never returned for more. Disappointing. There are some names that are somewhat famous I guess like Adam Brody or Oscar nominee Chloë Sevigny and Adriano Giannini has also appeared in some well-known projects.
Here we have the story of a bunch of young people living in Paris, some of them from abroad, for example Americans (in Paris). I must say of course there were characters and situations that did nothing for me, but there was also quite a decent deal of positive scenarios that got me curious about what would happen next. Never gonna find out. Too bad as I may have given this series a chance at some point. Both the acting and script in terms of comedy were as solid as I'd expect from Stillman. Watch these 25 minutes. You will most likely not be disappointed.
