A film by Hellen Levitt " In The Street film"
มุมมอง 16K9 ปีที่แล้ว
This short 16mm film by Hellen Levitt, Janice Loeb, and James Agee. was made in East Harlam in 1941-2. Hellen Levitt is perhaps the only photographer to truly capture the city streets of {NYC} during the early 1940s. "Every unnoticed human being of the city is a poet, a masker, a warrior, a dancer: and in his innocent artistry he projects, against the Turmoil of the street an image of human exi...

What is happening to our city? Many of us are finding it harder and harder to live here. The rents here are ridiculous. The greed is all around us. Moloch must be fed. Ginsberg saw it coming back in 1955. Mike Mastrogiacomo Brooklyn, NY

-To the 70s, and 80's too. You didn't love it for the drugs, or the violence, or its bad conditions. You loved it because it was real. You could smell it, taste it, live it. Maybe you were young back then, your 20s probably-when everybody seemed to live here-and just about anyone could find a place to call home here. If you couldn't afford the city there was Brooklyn. It was a broken city but i...

    Even though every decade had it issues. At least we knew what the reality of the times were. Nowadays you are lied to constantly from the government, the media and everything in between. We just don't know what's real anymore. A man was a man and had a good idea of what that was. Women were women. Our police were people who we respected, our leaders lead and America was respected because of that. We live in scary times. I know there were exceptions but when you criminalize the police and put criminals on a pedestal, open the boarders with no plan as to what to do with them, allow business owners to get robbed, and punished people for protecting themselves, we are in a bazzaro nightmare 😢

    What a beautiful presentation. Thanks. What makes it even more special is to remember that cameras were not that common back then. My family was middle class and we didn’t have a camera until 1978 or so. My whole childhood in the 60s and 70s there’s like 7 pictures. I lived in lower Manhattan for 15 years and could see the Trade Center out my bathroom window. LOL. I remember drinking at the Terminal Bar. Wow. What a trip.

    I recall going there in 1977 and just being shocked at what I saw. When I saw New York City in 1977 some of the parts literally brought to mind hearing the Teacher in school talk about Berlin circa 1945. The Music to this video is also pretty fitting, gives sort of a Melancholy mood to the whole thing. I still love NYC, I guess it just goes to show every City has its ups and downs.

    Below, I asked the question - "What happened to the USA?" I think maybe I can answer my own question. American jobs outsourced overseas. American intervention around the world and starting (unnecessary) wars. Feeding the war machine - remember Bob Dylan's famous song "Masters of War"? Read the lyrics. American deregulation of the financial markets. The opioid epidemic and how the Sackler family profited from OxyContin. Social media. Facebook. Please jump in and add more factors responsible for the decline of American society.

    As a teenager in mid 70's and in my 20's during most of the 80's, NYC, specifically Manhattan, was a cesspool! Thankfully, for the most part, things have changed, at least until the last 5-8 years !

Maybe you were young back then, your 20s probably-when everybody seemed to live here-and just about anyone could find a place to call home here. If you couldn't afford the city there was Brooklyn. It was a broken city but it had character it had life. The technology that was to overtake us and put us all in some virtual world had not yet been invented.
