Except for the People (1970)

Directed by Jon Child, Abigail Child

· 20m

"Abigail and Jonathan Child's 20‐minute exploration of the new Lower East Side. At one point in the Child's film, an old man with an East European accent surveys his neighborhood, which has been invaded by the blacks, the hippies, the ex‐ Urban poor and the (now‐ defunct) Fillmore East. He announces that he's satis fied with the conditions in this country 'except for the people.' ;Except for the People,; the title of the Child's film, is the rather terrifying theme of the entire program." - Vincent Canby, New York Times, Nov. 19th 1971
