  • haha, when white people used to live in the Bronx.

  • Given that this film was made in 1949, it's a great reminder that New York City was a global city long before the rest of the country accepted it. African-Americans, though few, were included, a Spanish-speaking voice, other foreign accents. For that era, when ethnic stereotypes were the rule in movies, this was an exception.

  • @globehunter2 Dumb comments like this is the reason why most black americans feel that most white americans are RACISTS! But keep doing what you are doing you BIGOT, keep giving people like Al Sharpton a reason to march every time a white person(a cop) do something harmful to a black person by posting up your racists & stereotypical views, THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING. P.S.:There are just as many white criminals as there are black criminals, the BIAS MEDIA won't expose the white criminals DUMMY.

  • wonder how they managed to run such a system without modern computers. there are so many countries which still don't have rapid transit!
