I've watched so much of this footage, thirties and fifties too, so fascinating, a trip through time. Fella on the left is on his way to the Movie theatre to see KirkDouglas in his latest picture. Fella on the right is wishing him a happy 101st birthday.

After watching this video, it appears that LA was much more spacious & pedestrian friendly. There were actually more people walking. Now the places are filled with over pass, roads, bridges and gate and blocks on the street and sidewalks.

LA in the 40's looked like a nice city with interesting buildings. In the modern footage it looks like a Mausoleum/construction zone. So depressing.
