The Roaring 20’s… the decade before The Great Depression… The time of Al Capone and Prohibition (like on “Boardwalk Empire”). Heard of it? Sure you have. But how much have you went and learned? It’s a lot of ground to cover in American History. Might be easier, even more engaging, if someone made a documentary about the era and ‘brought it to you live’ (like Mobb Deep, so to speak).

The 1920s was an era of vibrant times and colorful characters. For the first time, we present the Roaring ’20s in color, from Ford’s assembly line to Charles Lindbergh’s transatlantic flight and from speakeasies to New York’s Wall Street.

“America in Color: The 1920s.” Like a history class you won’t wanna ditch. Click the pic above and watch. You’re welcome.

(Recognize narration in this by Showtime’s own “Ray Donovan” – Liev Schreiber.)
