USER REVIEWS: The more things change, the more they say the same. The best clips on this 2 dvd set are the scenes from the underbelly and ghettos of new york. They make a pretty convincing case for the argument that the problems of crime, unemployment and high rent in New York has been with us for nearly 100 years and not likely to change too. It's interesting to think that even before drugs became popular the same sorts of problems existed.
It makes me understand why people moved to the suburbs. (By Deacon)
