Lost Landscapes
Lost Landscapes of SF was awesome. Hooray, Prelingers! Go see it again on January 24.
Huge line, even at 6:30. Get there early or your view will look like this.
Luckily I brought my iPhone zoom lens and was able to bring you blurry photos from a distance. (Do note the quality of the footage was spectacular, much better than these crappy photos suggest.)
Lots of shots of SF during WWII.
Excellent quality outtake reels of driving around SF (basically what you would see behind two people talking in a car scene).
This film was a rather dramatic cry against anarchy:
Unsutrofied Twin Peaks:
Also some nice shots of Playland:
The running commentary was awesome, both from these guys and the peanut gallery.
Anyway, highly recommended, cannot believe I haven’t done it until now! Another showing on January 24th, follow @footage for details. Previous editions of Lost Landscapes are available online, and I believe this one will be up soon.
How cool! I’m going to have to go to the Jan. 24 one!
