film on-line :  The City (1939)

Urban planning legend Lewis Mumford, together with Aaron Copland (composer of a personal 'imaginary cities' favourite, Quiet City) and photographer Ralph Steiner joined forces in 1939 to construct an idealistic film about the potential for 'new cities' to arise from the mire that America's cities were then perceived to be descending into.  http://www.cityofsound.com/blog/2005/01/the_city_1939.html
