there very little and if anything and memorable about manhatta . besides be one of the original city symphony film and pave the way for good work like berlin represent die sinfonie der grobstadt ( which i think translates into berlin represent symphony of a city ) and pennebaker daybreak express and to name two and all it really offer to modern audience be a reason to fall asleep . manhatta be mainly make up of static and or at best and phlegmatic shot and and have inter title quote walt whitman . the camera have a strange obsession with smoke billow from chimney of boat and factory . it a pioneer of a new land that be soon in the hand of more skillful developer .
