Check "4K DeOldify | A drive through 1940's Los Angeles in COLOR" by Neural Networks on RU-vid. Same movie but far more yellow which makes the weather look better, but contrast is better here and looks more realistic. Also see The New Yorker for 2 parallel videos of the original movie and a contemporary view of the same roads.

The beginning of this clip and other bits of it can be seen in the Cornel Wilde movie "Shockproof" (released to theaters in 1949), starting at about 20.27: this footage was filmed from a camera-truck just for "movie background" purposes and has survived as an accidental record of a 'lost world' of neighbourhoods,where people could still walk around, that have been replaced (using taxpayers' money, as always) by the obligatory thruways, business towers, expensive apartments and eccentric architectural carbuncles.

always great vids... the only thing I would ask is that you not use modern electronic sirens as urban sounds. They were only mechanical sirens until the late 60s and then only rarely unlike today.

Cars just don't have the design today that celebrates the specialness of the very concept of having a bubble of steel that goes where you want when you want with beauty and elegance like they did in the late 40s '/ early 50s. Today's vehicle design is as pedestrian as the people walking beside them (maybe they would rather do so?) , and Warhol was right, even the supermarket tins in the 50s had elegance.
