In the late 1960s, newsreels were an integral part of motion picture exhibition in America.

Part of the Hearst Metrotone News Collection for the celebration World Day of Audiovisual Heritage; We invite you to Explore thousands of newsreels online courtesy of the Archive and the Packard Humanities Institute.
Newsreel Spotlight: “Mexican Steppers Show Their Stuff” (5/13/1931)L -- “Contest held in Los Angeles to pick the best dancers for California City’s 150th birthday fete.”
Newsreel Spotlight: “Paris Reveals Fall Fashions!” (9/4/1950) -- Paris Fashion Week may be over, but plenty of sartorial inspiration can be found in our newsreel collection. Here, models showcase the latest designs from Christian Dior in 1950. (Note: footage does not include sound).
The UCLA Film & Television Archive and The Packard Humanities Institute are pleased to host this new website (newsreels.net) giving access to nearly 15,000 newsreel stories from the Hearst Metrotone News Collection owned by the University of California. The website is the first phase of a multi-year project to make the entire Hearst newsreel collection accessible to the public. The joint project is led by the Packard Humanities Institute, which has built nitrate film storage vaults for the Archive, and provided funding, equipment and technical support for the large scale-digitization project. From the early teens through the late 1960s, newsreels were an integral part of motion picture exhibition in America. Although the reels were fashioned, for the most part, to be entertaining, they uniquely document the domestic and international events of their time. The Archive is grateful to The Packard Humanities Institute for its role as the driving force in the project to share the Hearst Metrotone News Collection for research, study and public access.

The Real Ed Herlihy
As I mentioned in my post about Jerry Lewis’s tv shows, when I first saw the comedian in Scorsese’s The King of Comedy (1982), I was to young to know the extent of the gimmick, i.e. I didn’t know that Lewis had had his own talk show and guest-hosted The Tonight Show numerous times. As a corollary, I had no idea that Ed Herlihy (1909-1999) wasn’t just an actor playing the Ed McMahon equivalent.…

LECTURE 11: BEATLEMANIA GOES GLOBAL: Beatle Wigs were all the rage in the United States and Canada in 1964. The previous year, Brits – caught up in the hurricane of Beatlemania – were the first to manufacture the iconic artificial hair head coverings. This British Pathé newsreel offers a glimpse of the Beatle Wig craze. Unlike the United States, where The Beatles’ hairstyles touched off a massive debate about long hair and masculinity, there was greater acceptance of men wearing their hair longer in Great Britain.

Lecture 8: BRITISH INVASION: “THE BEATLES ARE COMING! THE BEATLES ARE COMING!” These British Pathé newsreels convey the sheer epic pandemonium of The Beatles’ first visit to the United States in February 1964. Dig those giant screaming crowds! Dig the madness! Pure madness! The talented British foursome are in top form here, charming audiences at their press conference with their refreshing sense of humour. This is how The Fab Four won over the North American public – in the United States and Canada – by the millions in 1964.

“This 98-year-old woman has had a total of 622 ‘descendants’…because at age 16 she married a 50-year-old widower with 10 children, SOME OF WHOM WERE OLDER THAN HER AND HAD THEIR OWN KIDS ALREADY, and then had 13 more children by him, but news outlets report on it like a cute human interest story”
sounds like an SNL skit where the “straight man” character gets increasingly disturbed while everyone else acts happy and charmed
And. Fucking. Yet.

🎥 VIDEO "GRACE AND RAINIER VISIT PARIS": Princess Grace and Prince Rainier of Monaco visit Paris on May 28, 1956. The princely couple stayed at the Prince's apartment in the French capital. It's their first trip outside the little principality since they returned from their honeymoon. Among questions from the press is whether a new arrival is expected in the palace of Monaco to which the prince says nothing and the princess only says "perhaps".
