Documentary -- Glad to have it....

It's pieces like this that give you hope for the American film industry. A moving documentary, well done, and truly a trip back in time...but the point is that it's important it was made. We need to explore how we got to where we are as a society, and viewing this gives us so much insight into our parent's and grandparent's generation. It may explain why we are the way we are today. Coney Island today is a war zone. How did we get there? This documentary is one of many that explores this issue under the surface, and does it brilliantly. More than just a review of this movie, this is a review of America, and New York. If it doesn't make you sad, then you may have to check your pulse. See it.
