EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Times Square, New York City in 1920. The focus is on the iconic Strand movie theatre, standing tall amidst a sea of American automobiles and vibrant city life. As we gaze at this snapshot from the past, we are transported to an era where film was rapidly gaining popularity as a form of entertainment. The Strand's marquee proudly displays its name, inviting passersby to escape into the world of cinema for a few hours. People from all walks of life can be seen strolling along the street, some stopping to admire movie posters or engage in conversation with friends. This image captures daily life in this North Manhattan neighborhood during a time when movies were becoming an integral part of American culture. The photograph showcases not only the architectural beauty of The Strand but also provides a glimpse into early 20th-century urban living. It serves as a reminder that even amidst busy city streets, people found solace and joy within the walls of movie theaters like The Strand. Preserved by The Granger Collection, this historical artifact allows us to appreciate how far our society has come while cherishing moments frozen in time. It reminds us that movies have always been more than just entertainment; they are windows into different worlds and reflections of our own lives.
