Watching the side by side film, fascinating. Seeing the early birth of the automotive world and last days of draft animals. Much more visual than our own pre and post internet world.
I was in Mexico City to study in 1957 when a 7.5 quake hit. Walked around the next day taking photos. Still have them. Not as bad as the 1985 quake, fewer than 200 died, but there still was some serious damage out there. The “Angel” on the column of the Independence fell off and broke. Actually it was a Roman style “winged victory.” The next few days it was said there was a big scandal because it was supposed to be all gold, but instead was guilded. I just Googled, but no mention of the scandal, just that it was gold on bronze, and some people tried to steal broken pieces. Cover up, fake news??

Another scandal reported at the time was that popular movie star, Cantinflas, had money invested in an apartment building that collapsed and killed over 100 people. Graft in the purchase of building materials was reported/suspected at that time. I could find no reference to that at Google. He was just becoming famous in US and pulling the big bucks at that time.
