Battles over the future of New York City are at the center of the richly informative and well-crafted documentary, Citizen Jane: Battle for the City.

The film's focus sprawls like an unchecked suburb, scratching the surface of topics from institutional racism to gentrification to community organizing to the birth of a white-collar economy.

[A] gorgeous, tightly written and entertaining film.

This is a good summary of the impact of Jane Jacobs, citizen planner, giving us a history of the soulless "Radiant City" theory of planning, the damage it has done , and the damage it may yet do (in places like China). Although we are out of the era of massive U.S. expressway and housing project construction, it is important to know how we got there. I somehow wish there was more biographical detail on Jane herself and an illustration on how her theories worked in New York City neighborhoods. Yet this is a timely illustration on how citizen activism works and how it can change history.

Guess what? You can fight City Hall. Matt Tyrnauer's excellent documentary, Citizen Jane: Battle for the City, shows how it's done, a call to arms that could not be more timely in this chaotic political moment.
