Part of what I want to tell you is what it is like to be young in New York, how six months can become eight years with the deceptive ease of a film dissolve, for that is how those years appear to me now, in a long sequence of sentimental dissolves and old-fashioned trick shots—the Seagram Building fountains dissolve into snowflakes, I enter a revolving door at twenty and come out a good deal older, and on a different street.

How does Joan Didion's extended metaphor of comparing her time in New York to a movie affect the tone of this excerpt?

It creates a flippant, glib tone so Didion can convey how superficial and thoughtless she was when she lived in New York.
It creates a romantic, reverential tone as Didion describes snapshots of her greatest triumphs in New York.
It creates a frank, objective tone as Didion focuses on her flaws and the failures she endured while in New York.
It creates a nostalgic, meditative tone as Didion reflects on how quickly her time in New York seemed to pass.
