Morning in the Streets

Denis Mitchell's companion piece to 'Night in the City' follows various conversations during a morning in Liverpool. As children play on bomb sites and in playgrounds, the elderly reminisce about their own childhoods. It's a city still recovering from the Blitz over a decade before, not yet the home of football and music that it would become.

The film features a shot of graffiti that reads "Save the Rosenbergs", a reference to Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who in 1953 were tried and executed in the United States for espionage on the flimsiest of evidence.
