See Yourself Tonight

Ephemeral film · 6 min

Synopsis

Person-on-the-street interviews (January 11, 1949) presented by the San Francisco Television Center in which passersby are asked about snow in Los Angeles (the topic of that day’s newspaper headlines), their opinion on the weather and the possibility of climate change, and if they intend to purchase a television set (which had only been made available to San Francisco consumers the month before). Participants are invited to watch themselves on TV later in the evening and are given free passes to Embassy Theatre (Market Street, San Francisco).
