Amazing footage, never seen anything like this before from that early and very surprised at how much traffic there was. Only wish there was more!

Very evocative film with nice extended shots of streetlife. I wonder how this was made. Was the camera mounted on a car. It seems to weave in and out of thetraffic with ease.

Fascinating footage. Interesting to note how filthy so many of the buildings were from air pollution. The Clean Air Act didn't come into force until the 1950s. Everyday life, particularly in factory work, was an awful lot dirtier than today too and people were rather less scrupulous about hygiene. Many had baths once a week and that was it.

The women's fashions certainly look postwar, but surprisingly, there doesn't appear to be even one postwar vehicle. 1946, maybe?

You some kind of troll or something? Or just blind? The buildings in this video are utterly filthy from all the air pollution. The country was still a wreck from the war.
