This was shown on PBS long ago

music please! I love this, weird that watching now this is in the past. I am big on nostalgia so I love this. I look into the past and love it. The first world war should have been to save Humanity not Democracy. Just saying.

Not bad. In some ways it feels like it was made a few years prior, but it makes good use of intertitles to make it clear whats going on throughout the story. I've watched probably about 200 'films' between 1887 and 1914, and something funny for me was how surprising it felt to see Mary's legs on occasion! I imagine they made that decision for storytelling purposes but it really stood out to me given the time it was made, as partically every other film doesnt even show a bit of a lady's ankle! Thank you for uploading 👍

Do any of you know what music is playing in the background at the minute 5:00 ?

I love this voice From south France

Merci beaucoup Sud de la France

Michael Connelly has a novel titled Angel's Flight!

Perhaps one day AI will create an immersive Bunker Hill experience. I long to experience The Richfield Oil Building. Imagine walking into its lobby and taking an elevator to the top to view vintage Downtown Los Angeles from above.

as a life long native of LA I can say without reservation that, LA should have been left as it was.

4:05 "little waifs" 💀

What an amazing film. I was born and raised in Los Angeles and its sad to see those who run the city have so little desire to preserve its former unique look or its history

I road Angels Flight's a few times as a kid in the late 50's. Five cents. I lived in South Silver Lake and there were two big Victorian homes in the neighborhood that were subdivide into Apt's. Both were torn down and replaced with Dingbats Apt's.

意味分からんかった

サイレント映画にしてもセリフ少ないね。まあこの動画だと言葉わからんけどさ

音楽はうるせーだけだな

眠すぎる。つまらん

画質かなり悪いね

クラシック映画、RUclipsにたくさんあるね

If you want any perception of "Old Los Angeles....You have to go to Echo Park and walk around Angelino Heights. It's the only "hint" of "Old L.A....Beautiful Victorian Neighborhood. Thank God they preserved that area since there's not much left.

To think most of those beautiful houses only stood a few years....What a tragedy!!!

When they leveled Bunker Hill.....That was the Beginning stages of the demise of L.A. .....smh!!!!😔

Kent Mackenzie brought me here.

My mother was relocated from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation to Los Angeles during the 1960’s. She told me Bunker Hill was where the BIA placed a lot of them for housing. She said it was really run down and scary.

"Waiting for the bulldozers" - Yea!

The film waxes sad, but it doesn't mention that the greedy vultures in LA's govt, egged on by their even greedier masters in the banking and real estate sectors, declared Bunker Hill a "slum" for no good reason, the real reason being: profitable development at the expense of the working class.

An absolute fucking disgrace and utter shame. To erase so much damn history of my city. 😪

Born in 1952, I'vemesmerizing with classical music in the background.

The fact that nobody knew this was the original they thought 1950 was the original

@JonEccentric is the music in this from the original film?

Man, you can almost smell the Brylcreem

So sad all those old building had to be torn down.

01:53 "The war to SAVE democracy." A gaslighting, propaganda lie. What a joke.

Again Not so free Not so great

Getting unbanned again

Imagine the effort for thee native directors to 11:25 the perfect mouse like that that eats the cheese at that frame!

Fantastic share, really enjoyed it,ty!

It's intriguing how they viewed the soon-to-be-coming "urban renewal" (ew) back in the 60s. It wasn't some massive tragedy and loss of historic and beautiful architecture it was just out with the old in with the new and nothing more.

Well done. I was born in 1947 in Los Angeles. My grandmother took me on "Angels Flight" many times. Also to "Clifton's Cafeteria" where I got to choose a toy from the treasure chest. Wonderful memories.

I worked in the Pacific Tel complex between Grand and Olive. The 434 building went up in '48, the 420 started in '62 and finally topped out at 17 floors in '68, Old timers there who'd seen it all said the old Victorian era houses were flophouses, dilapidated, and were fire hazards. The Redevelopment Agency had already taken title to many of the properties around '54, and maintenance was nil, making a bad situation worse. Thd neighborhood could have been a Victorian landmark district, had there been a conservancy in place, but Harry Chandler and his cabal, along with Kenny Hahn on the City Council (LA's most famous millionaire janitor) saw the money coming their way. Hilly Grand Ave was eventually level off to be a massive overpass, the "temporary" steel parking structure (which lasted into the 21st century) went up in '58, and of course, the Chandlers had to have their Music Center. Years later, and Bunker Hill is still not complete. I did get to see the crane collapse that killed a clerk in a construction trailer and injured the operator when the O'Melvany & Myers building was going up. I don't recognize much of downtown north of 4th St and west of Olive anymore. That's progress, I guess.

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Touching. Destroy the old doesn't mean that the new Will bê better.

Isnt this the princess and the pea?

It was a crime of GREED pure and simple.

I love taking Angel's Flight up to the gleaming Financial District after a nice meal Grand Central Market!

Not one mention of Angels Flight clothing brand famous for their bell-bottoms as seen in Saturday Night Fever.

I rode it when came back in the late 90's. Then had a accident with it in 2001 and I don't know if they ever reopened it again.

Too bad that generation wanted to bury the past so much that they destroyed history. Today we fight for certain landmarks to be saved. Sometimes we lose. Most of the time, we win.

you know that sometime ago my brother made this Mary Pickford Cinderella Doll just as she look as Cinderella in this 1914 video,

Micheal connley wrote a book called angels flight just finished it good book a detective novel glad to see it really exsised
