Emily in Paris: Is It Too Cliché For Parisians? | Easy French 216

Bonjour les amis et bienvenue dans ce nouvel épisode de Easy French. Good afternoon, my friends and welcome to this new episode of Easy French. You know the Emily series in Paris. We also, of course, have made a podcast on this subject. But today, we're going to make a video. And we're going to ask the Parisians if what's represented in the series It is representative of life in Paris. It's a party! Have you seen the Netflix series Emily in Paris? Yes, I did. You too? Yeah, I saw it. And what did you think of it? You liked it? Yeah, it's a little simple, but it makes the time go by. But yes, it is very cliché. Have you ever seen the series Emily in Paris? Yeah, I've already seen the series Emily in Paris. You like it well, ça vous plaît? Yes, it is sympathetic, it is distracting. It gives a pretty paradisiacal image of Paris. It doesn't show the negative sides, it's a little sad. But it's very entertaining. Have you seen the series Emily in Paris? So no, but I've seen a lot of excerpts. Yeah, but maybe the first two seasons. What did you think of it? It is a vision cliché rêvée de la France. Moi, that's a little what stopped me. The extracts, I had the impression that it was a little too stereotyped. Dude, I didn't look because of that. No, I haven't seen the series. I think it's the first season, but I haven't seen many episodes. What's the matter? No, I'm not too attached, no. The vision that was represented by Paris, Do you think that was rather realistic or really cliché? No, it's unrealistic and cliché, I think. Like many people who lived in Paris, I think. I've seen the first two seasons, that's all. Why didn't you continue? A little too cliché. I'm not all Paris, at the base. I lived in Paris, but only for a short time. It was too cliché, it was too romantic. I didn't like it at all. There were too many things that were romanticized. It wasn't representative of everything. He doesn't speak as much French as the one in the show, I think. It's very American. It's the American vision of Paris. It's a series that puts the bourgeoisie on the spot, if you can call it that. It's a girl who travels not badly, who has a life that does not necessarily correspond to the life of all the French, According to what I've heard. Do you think that's realistic or not? Even if it doesn't show the negative sides of Paris. Does this show really exist in Paris? Yes, it really exists. The monuments, the gardens, they really exist. It's realistic. After all, it's a rather idealized image, even if it remains realistic. And the life of Emilie? Are there many people in Paris who have this life or a similar life? In any case, I don't have that life. Maybe there are some Parisians who have this life, But not much. In any case, it's really very minimal. It's a very small representation of reality. The vision of Paris in the series, what did you think of it? It's not the same thing I see here. It's a little more romantic, on the say. It's a little fake. What's the point, for example? I don't see the people I meet in the show. It's not the same thing that I see in... They're all rich, they're all well dressed. They're all quiet with their work. Besides, Emilie, she is hyper strong. She's in labor, she never has a problem. It's a little fake, that too. Have you seen the last season of Emily in Paris? Yes, I had been waiting impatiently. It's really sad that Emily is no longer with Gabriel. All this for a communication problem. You have a reason. They'd be together again if Emilie had joined the Easy French community. That's right. She could have practiced her French with hundreds of other learners. I'm going to be on Discord every day. And the courses in video, conferences twice a week would have allowed him to make enormous progress orally. Les amis, do not pass by the love of your life Because of a communication problem And rejoignez vite la communauté French is easy I'm going to go through easy-french.org. It's hyper-marking. Her life, she's in an apartment next to her taff, She's going in an Uber or a taxi, I don't know. It's completely disconnected from our reality. And that's almost a little annoying when you see it. I think it's a little tricky in the day-to-day. I'm going to take the subway. Everyone says they're in the mood. We don't have to meet again. And also the fact that they speak English everywhere, It's not necessarily the case in Paris. I think there are a lot of people who speak English. But in the series, it's the same. And that's not very realistic. It's a little idealized. But at the same time, it's fictional. It's not normal. Yeah, it's not a documentary. No, it's not made for that. There is perhaps also the American vision of Paris. I mean, but they're completely to the west. It's really not that. All the stuff about the Parisians, the libertinage. What's her name? - What? Sylvie who sleeps with everyone, Who is in a single couple when she's 50. It's not necessarily true. It's cool to have this performance. It's cool, but in reality, I think there are not many Parisians, Frenchmen who are like that. I find that's the vision What an American can have in Paris, But if he is rich. As a Parisian, on arriving in Paris, Not in those clothes, not in that villa, Not on this routine. It's not all representative. of an étranger qui va arriver en France (a foreigner who will arrive in France) And who's to say, I'm in the mood to settle here Because I have an opportunity for work. We don't all have that chance. Even in the activities, It's very fashionable. It's very much the fashion and it's not that. We're not all like that. I'm going to be very happy. All the time in the street. It's not usual. Oui, ce n'est pas habituel. Yes, it is not usual. In Paris, on a quand même as well Not bad for street harassment. I think Emily might have a few small concerns. Do you think that people Who would come to Paris because they saw this series Could you be disappointed? Yeah, I think they might be disappointed. After all, this is a monument. It still remains really real. It's sure that it's very beautiful, But there are also the more negative sides, The price of the product This is the same, dear. I think there may be a little disappointment. Des personnes qui ne connaissent pas Paris People who do not know Paris And who's gonna see this series, Maybe they'll say It can't be bad, I'll go there. And a stranger who comes to Paris Because he saw the series. I'll be there to discover Paris. Do you think he can be disappointed? In some respects, yes. The city remains beautiful. Yes, there is a quand même des jolies choses See you in the city. I think that as a tourist, Maybe it's all right. if on reste sur The beautiful buildings, The culture, the food, etc. I can't keep that vision. After, perhaps once more, to come live here, If you say the transports, The daily, after, is another thing. But it works a little bit everywhere. There is no need to idealize in general.
