The city is the object of study of different disciplines, one of those is the cinematographic narrative. Through cinema we can visit cities and discover their identities due to the social representations that the cinematographic narrative disseminates. In addition, the cinema is an eminently spatial art that lends itself to the narrative analysis of the elements that compose it. In this way, with the aim of making known how cities are narrated by the cinematographic discourse, a methodology of filmic analysis in triad has been designed to study the film from three perspectives: iconic, oral and actantial. This methodology has been applied to the film Blue Jasmine (2013), directed by Woody Allen, because represents two cities: New York and San Francisco. The results of the analysis shows the urban tale of each one and the narrative strategies used by the director to film cities.
