Rebecca: Well, at least I have potential. It's a wonderful thing, potential. Because as long as I don't do anything, I'll still have it.

User Reviews

A fun rest stop for mature channel surfers.

"Little City" refers to San Francisco of which much mention is made and many landmarks are shown in this film which features an ensemble cast of quality actors all comfortably engaged in sorting through the romantic vicissitudes of their characters lives. Lively, fun, and glib, "LC" is a little situational plotless and soapless "chick flick" with lots down-to-earth dialogue about relationships. A fun, light hearted watch for mature channel surfers, especially couples and San Franciscans.
