I’ve always enjoyed this one because it is more “realtime” - it doesn’t have that “sped up “ quality so many really old films have.

I am ignorant and can not do linkage but go to youtube and search Scott Walker/Montague Terrace.
It is footage of either the same scene AFTER the quake, or it is post war Berlin. Either way it is an AMAZING counterpart to this film. Trust me its worth it.

Very cool film and the added bonus of no flaming S.F. fag parades yet.

I love this video. It was posted a few months back as a thread though i can't find it in a search. I think Hildy posted it but i'm not sure. The modern soundtrack has a particularly haunting effect on the video. Every person in the video is wearing a hat. Men, women and children. It is an amazing historical document.

The great 1906 earthquake and resulting fire changed the scenery shortly thereafter.
