Made by a group of people with, if not an axe to grind, a purpose in mind, which appears to be a plug for future suburbia and back to the idyllic towns of the past and the Big City would just be a place where people work but not live. Or something like that... (imdb)

Looked at purely as a time capsule it's interesting to see that the idyllic perspective of suburbia predates its existence. The production values are good too, with good choice of images and sound. It's incredibly dated and preachy, though, and kind of tedious to watch.

Despite it's ideological hue, this has some entertaining elements.
