Thank you for posting this; I love old movies and pictures that show what life was like a long time ago.

Ted Turner did a good job colorizing...

Amazing video.

And these Euros went and blew it all to hell shortly thereafter.

Yep, watching these videos always makes me sad. Especially whenever I see the videos of Jewish life in Europe before the war knowing what was about to happen.

multicultural enrichment

Berlin in 2014 would have qualified, as well.

The operative factor was wars of aggression.

Great stuff, and thanks for posting. A bit bittersweet, as well: the little boys in it would know the horrors of Verdun and the Somme, fifty years after the filming they’d still be picking through the rubble of those magnificent buildings, and sixty years after, they’d be watching a wall bisect the city and the planes that had flattened the place so shortly before flying in to feed it. Interesting times.

Couldn’t help but wonder how many of those young boys staring at the camera turned into Nazis.

Or how many were Jews who perished in the Holocaust.

Germany at that moment have not believed what lay in store for them. WWI, Weimar and wheelbarrows full of cash, the Third Reich. There’s a lesson in there for us.
The nihilists running wild must not be allowed the upper hand.

A bit of trivia also. In Berlin then, men had the vote from the 1870 era. SO in the war to make the world safe for democracy, the average German soldier could vote. The average British soldier couldn’t. No universal male suffrage in the UK till after the war. Only landowners before that!

Is there any doubt that of all the cities in the world, no city saw more “history” than Berlin in the 20th Century?

“What are you talking about?”

I’m just betting he’s talking about the Africa and moslem horde that has fallen onto Europe. Just a wild guess.
