Street Scene
movie

The simple story of LIFE through the window pane of the house across the street.
Released September 05, 1931
Overview
The setting is a city block during a sweltering summer, where the residents serve as representatives of the not-very-idealized American melting pot. There is idle chitchat, gossip, jealousy, racism, adultery, and suddenly but not unexpectedly, a murder.
