Project XX: The Innocent Years
November 21, 1957
1h 0m
Documentary
Overview
The relatively calm years between 1900 and 1914 represented a time of tranquility and opulence in America, before World War I removed any carefree virtue that was left to be found. Narrated by Alexander Scourby, this documentary provides a charming retrospective look at what life was like during those 14 years leading up to the chaos of war time. Features President Teddy Roosevelt, the Mexican Revolution, Prohibition and more. (Note: Originally part of Project XX, this film was also distributed separately on 16mm for schools and libraries, qualifying it as a standalone documentary.)
