And it was not exactly a considered portrait of the city’s residents, with Parisian characters who leaned heavily into patronising stereotypes. The version of Paris seen in the show consisted mostly of tourist highlights (the Eiffel Tower, Café de Flore, Sacré-Coeur), improbably large apartments and suspiciously clean streets, without a gilet jaune protest in sight. It was less la vie en rose – more la vie en sparkling rosé. Thrust beret-first into a cliche-ridden version of Parisian life, she somehow became an influencer, despite almost exclusively posting pictures of croissants and cheeseburgers, and spending most of her time seeking out new Frenchmen to snog.
An instantly memeable, Devil Wears Prada-ish concoction from Sex and the City creator Darren Star, its first run saw Chicagoan Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) emigrate to France for a marketing job. The show was Emily in Paris, the Netflix series that became arguably the most divisive television of 2020 – and which is soon to return for a second series. But, thanks to one glossy Netflix romcom, Parisians began to wonder whether she viewed them as little more than walking, bigoted stereotypes.
“I promise you, I don’t!” she would protest. Monica de la Villardière, who lives there with her French husband having emigrated from Canada, got it time and again. ‘I s this really how you feel about France? You think we’re all sexist?” It’s the kind of question you were likely to face if you were a North American woman in Paris last year – more so if you were a fashion influencer. After high school, Giacchino received a degree in film production at New York's School of Visual Arts and then went on to study. As a child, he developed an interest in animation and began making stop-motion cartoons, but discovered his favorite part was selecting the music that would match the action. Giacchino was born in Riverside Township, New Jersey, on October 10, 1967, and grew up in nearby Edgewater Park. Best-known for scoring many Pixar animated films plus latter-day installments of the franchises for Mission: Impossible, Star Trek, and Jurassic Park, Giacchino has also scored video games and done pivotal work for the television series Lost and Alias. Composer Michael Giacchino grew up fascinated with both movies and music, and he's gone on to an ideal career writing acclaimed scores for numerous films and television series.
