Comments on: San Francisco: Movie 1905 http://mainstreet-ct.com/marl/2009/11/26/san-francisco-movie-1905/ The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first object. -Jefferson Fri, 16 Mar 2012 05:35:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Editor http://mainstreet-ct.com/marl/2009/11/26/san-francisco-movie-1905/comment-page-1/#comment-993 Editor Mon, 07 Dec 2009 17:21:51 +0000 http://mainstreet-ct.com/marl/?p=866#comment-993 The "chaos" looks choreographed, almost like a dance. It's looks like "chaos" but everything is moving in sync and sequence. Except that one man who dodges that motor car. He had to make a decision, trolley car or motor car. Doesn't look like the car drivers are all that worried about the pedestrians. I'll see what else I can dig up. hmmm Any one have any old movies of Marlborough? Pre 1940???

The cars and horse drawn buggies crossing in front of the trolley, people walking across the tracks and the lack of designated cross walks! In Marlborough we are looking to upgrade the Exit 12 bus stop spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in the process because of concerns about pedestrian safety. But in this movie it shows a time when people took personal responsibility for their well being. Definitely a much simpler and much less regulated time.

Wondering about the histories of the people in the movie. I found myself watching it over and over. Wondering about the histories of the people in the movie.
