Christmas Party 1960's Home Movie Cine Film, Vintage Amateur Footage

Christmas in the 1960's. Great footage of everybody dancing. There are so many fantastic songs from the era that would have been great to put on this film but then because of copyright, KZbin would take the video down so I have used something copyright free.It's still very evocative of the time though!

I love the girl sitting beside the fireplace. She's so damn beautiful man! WOW❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🇨🇦💖💕💕

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

I guess she would now be in her eighties if she is still around

[@cerneuffington2656]

I like her dancing, wearing spectacles 😍

[@louisehans9771]

Do you even live in this century?? Pretty bad lusting after someone from 60 years ago🤣

[@RizlaaKing]

You've got issues mate

[@garypesci746]

Doesn't take much to please you, does it?

[@jylhobbs3038]

People actually interacted with each other. I remember when many of the adults smoked and ash trays were everywhere. They had fun and kept it classy....interesting no one is staring at a phone.

[@garypesci746]

That's because there were no cell phones back then.

[@glennturnbull8568]

Reminds me of being at my grandparents house as a kid!

[@williammackie4816]

I like the lady's dancing

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Yes, It's a nice nostalgic film

[@anthonyfieldhouse9691]

Magical

[@marcclement7396]

This warms my heart. Thank You

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

I'm glad you enjoyed watching

[@garypesci746]

Let's sit for a while, now let's get up and try to dance, now let's all sit again, now let's watch Aunt Martha smoke. And don't forget to try and look like you're having fun, after all, it is Christmas.

[@Jacklynlee]

Fashion was the best during this era!

[@mikeprice4807]

Did they know how to party then! We have a lot to learn.

[@ricogarion]

That was a swinging party!

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Well it was the 1960s

[@Rihardololz]

ayo wtf get your mind out of gutter.

[@garypesci746]

That eye-poppingly gaudy red couch looked like it had a major burned area on the end of the arm, probably from Aunt Martha's cigarettes.

[@joostderidder]

great! I have a few 8mm rolls from the same period (1960/61) my father filmed, with almost the same images. What's funny to look at is, of course, the fashion and the hair. Everyone in top-dresses and suits. The ladies wearing their nicest outfit and lingerie. One quite feminine movement in those years was the way a woman sat on a chair or on the couch ... always pulling down the dress to avoid the seeing of the lace of the petticoat / slip or even worse ... the nylons/suspenders!!! What a shame was that (lol) !!! (or sometimes intended, just to tease the friend or husband ) What I can see is that "adults" in those days looked older compared to today (at the same age)

[@williamscott2703]

Many,thanks

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Most welcome

[@innovativeinnovation6629]

A lovely Cardigan for the Men, shirt and tie and a lovely Dress for the Women. So much has changed!

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Very evocative of the times

In the land before cell phones…

[@Ivartshiva]

First we had to eat off our laps, and I couldn't tell you what we were eating. Then someone turned on the record player, Debbie dug the music, danced her head off, had too much to drink and came on to Sweater Boy in front of Dad and evrybody. She got fired about a year later

[@normanbloom]

Those were the days that I remembered. The girls were sexy and tempting and I loved it. No stupid pandemic at all..

[@ChristmasMickeyGemni]

❤❤❤

[@louisehans9771]

The dancing.....what is so interesting on the floor?? Everyone looking down! I guess each generation sees the older or future gens as crazy. LOL

[@ginadyson4214]

what's year is the home movies??? please let me know, thaks!

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Hi Sorry but I can't tell the exact year. I collect vintage films from estate sales and ebay, then digitise and post them on KZbin. There was no other information with this film other than the clothes etc to date it as being 1960s. The cine films on my channel range from 9.5mm film from the 20s and 30s to super 8mm taken as late as the 1980s. Whenever I can put an exact date on a film it will be in the description.

[@anthonydavid5121]

4 mins onward, that fireplace. Was this taken in the UK somewhere? It's looks like it. Wierd who that lady in the red chair smoked in the house. Reminds me of my aunt and grandmother

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Hi yes this footage is from a UK home movie cine film. I don't know who the people are as I collect vintage films from estate sales and ebay, then digitise and post them on KZbin

[@ellensstory4429]

Everyone smoked in the house then.

[@sirreal1290]

What's the name of the song and the band those people are dancing to at the Christmas party? It has a Pixies / Breeders / Nirvana vibe to it.

Hi, Finding copyright free music for the films is sometimes difficult however this piece seemed to fit. It is called "Yeah Yeah" by Audionautix and is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license (creativecommons.org/licenses/...) Artist: audionautix.com/

[@sirreal1290]

@@DaveEldergillCineFilm Thank you for that info.

[@moonbeam7702]

Just curious - who is the family shown in the home movie reel?

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Hello Heather, The answer to your question is "I wish I knew", I collect vintage cine films, buying them from car boots, charity shops and ebay etc. Once I have digitised and edited them , the real detective work begins. Was there a postage label or anything on the box, can the locations be identified using google street view etc. Sometimes these orphaned films make a connection with someone, once I had a message from someone in Yorkshire recognising his aunty and realised it was his grandfather's film from the 1970's and I was able to send him a digital file but those occasions are very rare. So if you can add any information to any of the "cine film memories" on the channel I would be very grateful.

[@BanalayerPete1972]

Going by the comments here: 1. Smoking indoors was classy; 2. No mobile phones or internet meant people were in constant ecstasy; 3. Bring back National Service; 4. Love Thy Neighnour.

[@ontarioguy4707]

Is this in England?

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Hi, Yes this was from a job lot of cine films purchased from ebay and which all came from the North of England

[@dougboyko4008]

I always wonder what happened to these people

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Me too, I source the films from eBay or car boot sales so have no idea who the people were.

[@garypesci746]

That's easy, they died.

No mass crime ,people were more peaceful and caring, not like the violence going on today beats the Vietnam Nam war

[@christine899]

Looks like a boring Christmas, not doing very much, just two women sitting in different chairs, hope it was more cheerful than this video suggests.

[@DaveEldergillCineFilm]

Perhaps whoever originally filmed the 8mm footage enjoyed a more sedate Christmas in those days 😊
