As an interdisciplinary venture, the focus of attention of this study is on examining the interrelation between the city and cinema in terms of myth. In that vein, highlighting the mythical character of the urban context as it finds expression by the cinematic medium, it is aimed at revealing the (re)creation of city myth through cinema, which is an elaborate perceptive vehicle for a specific way of picturing and enframing the cityscape.
