West/Greenwich Village, Manhattan, New York City. A “Manhattan Sightseeing Tours” bus passes along a street. People mill around the sidewalk. Three shots of store signs ("Paul Voltaire Craftsman," "Typist Manuscripts Plays Theses," "Fare"). People stroll along the sidewalk as the narrator explains that people from other parts of the city come to Greenwich Village on the weekends “soak up the atmosphere”. A fabric store window shop front. People window shop. CU of a sign that reads “The Sorcerer’s Cellar.” A man inside, in a kitchen, pours some sort of batter on the stove. Shots of the area at night, lit up by neon signs and headlights. CU’s of neon signs (”Cafe Bohemia,” “Nicks,” “Cafe Society,” “Vanguard,” “Louis Tavern”). CU of liquor bottles in a bar. CU of jukebox. An old man pulls an espresso at a machine in a cafe. People eat and smoke at a table in a restaurant. A show girl in a bra and underwear walks around a restaurant as a waiter pours wine and the customers look at her. Showgirls dance and twirl in large skirts. Well dressed women sit around a table and watch. A silhouette of a couple kissing through a frosted glass window.
