Rush Hour (1970)

Uploaded by BFIfilms on Jun 5, 2009
An 18-disc box set collecting all nine volumes of the BFI's celebrated British Transport Films DVD series is available to buy - http://filmstore.bfi.org.uk/acatalog/info_10840.html
Rush hour at Waterloo Station is condensed into three minutes in this breakneck short from Nick Nicholls, one of many British Transport Films he directed. Using time lapse photography, he captures the frenetic swarm of the morning rush - although there are now considerably more shops at Waterloo, the commotion of commuters is clearly nothing new.

@Leby980 There is nothing racist about not liking immigrants. You are a zenophobic. Evertime somebody chooses to dislike somebody they are called racist. I don't see why you have a problem with people not like other people. I'm glad it bothers you

@210482fmj hahahahahaha, you racist bastard. You make yourself look like a foolish 10 year old saying that. I guarantee you there were still lots of immigrants in London back then, and I even saw them in the film, you probably didnt catch them as this film is sped up a lot. Get it right!

Folks, you to have to remember that Youtube users are a microcosm of society. Sadly, there is no kind of IQ or basic decency test required before joining Youtube and therefore any kind of racist troll halfwit can comment to their small brain's content....
