I would like to encourage all of you to watch - if you have not done it already - the wonderful movie "Berlin, Symphony of a Great City".
It was shot in 1927. No actors, no story, no dialogues. Simply Berlin scenery, from dawn to twilight (and a little later) a few years after the end of WW1: people, shops, factories, transportation, military in parade (!), restaurants, animals, entertainments, children... and a superb music.
An incredible travel in the past.
I have seen it many times, and I still find it absolutely fascinating.

And now available on YouTube:

thanks a lot!
this is a great movie, an the "photograph" is really modern both in framing, timing and contrasts ... it was a real pleasure.
