Home Movie: 12316: Washington DC (1960)

★★★★ · Hey queenie, here's our missiles. · Spuzz · 2015-07-25

Pleasant enough visit to Washington DC and vicinity. You have 22 minutes, so I can imagine all the right destinations are covered. It looks like these people may have been travelling with a group, though whether they are all in the same group as others is debatable. Also later in the film there's a visit from Queen Elizabeth. Interesting then. Also there's a curious shot of a missle deploying from the ground (and a tourist going up with it?) ... Based on both these observations, this film may have been made in 1976.

★★★★ · Cool home movie of DC · Nazralte · 2015-08-25

I rather like these home movies of cities from the 50s and 60s. Shows how much people have changed since then. No such thing as putting on your nice clothes and going out, we are a much more casual culture. As for Spuzz saying 1976, I would say no. 1960 is probably accurate. There isn't a single car in this film that looks to be from the 70s. They are all 50s style.
