Peer deeper into a nation’s soul with Henry Ford's Mirror of America (Part II), a spellbinding continuation from the Ford Film Collection, reflecting U.S. history, culture, industry, and daily life from 1915 to 1930 through a mid-century lens. This archival reel hums—city streets buzz with Tin Lizzies, smokestacks tower over mill towns, vaudeville curtains part to laughter’s roar. The camera drifts—miners haul coal in lantern-lit depths, families picnic by radio’s hum, barnstormers loop through dusty skies—a mosaic of toil and triumph. Grainy frames flicker—Ford’s lens widens: Prohibition raids clash, breadlines stretch, yet jazz pulses defiance, a nation forging its modern beat. Archival Moments revives this Ford-crafted echo—subscribe to reflect on more from the reels of history!
