cool! those deep red cars sure bring back memories...
St. Patrick is such a distinctive station--i always wondered why they went with the 'London Tube' look for that one.

The opposite for me. I hated the smell of those trains.

This shot reminds me of the farm on Eglinton at the end of McLaughlin in Mississauga under the shadow of North America's Ugliest City Hall.

0:00-00--00:04:13 has amazing visuals of Yonge Street circa 1981, with shots of long gone gay bars like The Parkside and St. Charles.
the entire doc, about the 1981 bathhouse raids, is extremely interesting.

I'm surprised the documentary is as long as it is... 90 minutes. I'd expect something that that length about the Stonewall Riot in New York, but Canadian stories usually get short shrift... even here in Canada.

it is long, too long probably. but there was no market for it anyway so it may not matter. i'm not sure how they even pulled it off. back then there was no Telefilm, Canada Media Fund etc, no tax credits for documentaries, CBC didn't show indie docs, and Hot Docs didn't exist. totally different world.
great one for the time capsule anyway....
