I did not see all the interviews but what i rather bothered to watch was the other footage they have. These videos contain some great footage of Crown Height from 1980.
It's the same place with many of the same people but all so much younger! and there are the clips like the guy smoking in The wedding Ballroom, something unheard of today, or the kid playing ball with a pair of handcuffs hanging from his pants (cops & Robbers).
Some of the people i recognised were, Rabbis Raskin from the fish store, Chaim Boruch Halberstam, Lustig from Oholei Torah, Eli Lipsker, Charlie Buttons, a much younger and thinner Chazan Leible Blesofsky, Kaman, Shmuel Butman, Shlomo Cunin. There's one other guy i know - who also speaks for a bit - i forgot his name. As well as some of those that have passed on like Rav Zalman Shimon Devorkin, Reb Eli Chaim Roitblatt, Reb Osher Sosonkin and of course Rabbi JJ Hecht.
