There is really no better way to summarize this little movie other than by what the title says: "A Trip Down Market Street Before the Fire". Of course you could add that it is San Francisco and that this film was made shortly before the disastrous earthquake hit the Californian city. This movie had its 110th anniversary already a couple weeks ago and as such it is obviously a black-and-white silent film. City documentaries were a thing back then and I find it somewhat funny how people sometimes stop and look at the camera. Other than that, it is pretty much what you would expect life to look like shortly before the outbreak of World War I. An okay movie from the documentary perspective, but really only worth checking out for silent film enthusiasts. The lack of a plot may bore everybody else.
