"Jay Leyda was only 20 years old when he filmed his ode to the Bronx. The film pulses with an intelligence normally attributed to a mature artist and not a first time filmmaker. His approach offers a beautiful moment-to-moment observation of lives once lived one morning in a borough of New York City." - Bruce Posner
"Leyda’s first film, shot silent at a time when sound flooded American movie theaters, is a city symphony on an intimate scale, not of a metropolis like Berlin or Moscow but of a New York borough. Leyda’s camera affectionately focuses on children, streets, shops, and shoppers." - Robert A. Haller
