Nov 15, 2016 good silent historical doc looking at manhattan in 1920 See more Jan 23, 2012 No story, but to see life in early 1920s New York is fascinating. See more Jun 27, 2011 vu sur Arte de 1h40 à 1h50 dans la nuit du lundi 27 au mardi 28 juin 2011 ! See more Mar 16, 2011 kinda of a doc but an interesting slice of ny 1921's style See more Sep 23, 2009 Yawn. This might as well just be a series of postcards. See more Jan 26, 2009 Manhatta really isn't much more than a series of shots of Manhattan in 1920 but they are amazing shots of some fantastic imagery. A must for fans of early film, nostalgia or New York City. See more Read all reviews
