Movie Reviews of And This Is Free: The Life and Times of Chicago's Legendary Maxwell St.
Movie Review: Excellent Historical Info
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a resident of Chicago and I remember going to Maxwell Street when I was much younger with other friends. At the time I didn't understand the significance of it, and by the time I realized how important it was, they were planning to destroy it..I'm all for change but I was so brokenhearted when I found out they were not going to preserve any of it. In regards to the Video and CD I think anyone who is interested in Chicago history should definitely invest in this item because there is a wealth of information here and if you are not personally familiar with this location after viewing the DVD you will feel like you were there, and the CD and booklet are a little something extra. I was really impressed with the information in this DVD and it is worth every penny.It's truly a wonderful history lesson and you won't be disappointed.
