Author Topic: New York/PBS Will Kutler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1506 From: Tucson, AZ, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 10-02-2001 12:23 PM                     PBS just ran an excellent multi part film about the history of New York. Did anyone see it?  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 10-02-2001 12:35 PM                        Yes, and I recorded both evenings. Found the history of Robert Moses and how his passion to build roads and tear down buildings in the name of "urban renewal" almost ruined the city very facinating. Some probably appreciated the Federal money and construction jobs he brought to the state, but many were evicted from their homes and ethnic neighborhoods as the price of "progress". ------------------ John P.

Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 10-02-2001 01:47 PM                     I only saw the half featuring Robert Moses, and Mayor LaGuardia. I was extremely facinated by all the beautiful film images of old New York. I'm considering purchasing the videos.  |  IP: Logged
