It's hard to move one when you keep on memories. In my country when someone dies, we give away at funeral some things, kind of gifts like mugs, plates, curly bread, candies, a symbolic gesture to provoke "letting it go", to move forward.

[@materiagrezza9331]

People may come and go, but when their voice and faces are recorded, they live forever. I hope you treasure those films with great care, surviving a child is the worst kind of loss one can endure.

[@steatipygous]

I could be in the background in that film. I was visiting my cousins in Brooklyn for first time in 1964. I went to the World Fair four times in the two weeks I was there. It was a wonderful experience for a 20 year old on his first visit to America coming from Ireland. I have lots of photos from that visit but no film. It must have been thrilling for your family to see the old film. Well done.

[@Nat-pg9rd]

Wow that's awesome

[@herreach6955]

that's the precious thing about camera that everybody todays forgot. Now everybody have their own camera that could both record and shot and we became a self obsessed generation, back then having a video camera is a blessing, not everybody could have that, and even to develop and look at the result, it cost more money, buying the film again cost you more, that's why I didn't wonder why they only use it once and never use it again

[@thomasgalvin8349]

Maybe if you look at some of your photos you will see this family and their mother trying out he new camera.

My mother found an old reel in my grandmother's house when she passed away. It was of my mum and dad in the sixties. My dad died when I was 6 in the seventies so I don't really remember anything of him. So it was amazing and surreal when my mum got it developed to see him and my mum taking a summer stroll so youthful and happy. 🙂 I'd only ever seen pictures of him.

Isn’t time a strange thing? It seems so sad that we lose everything. Especially those so close to us. So much energy and life just goes away, as far as we know....

Buzzfeed has a lot of great content (and yes, a lot of nonpolitical content). There's different sections to Buzzfeed. It's all under the same name, but they're isolated part that work by themselves. For example, their research team they hired has been stellar, but their name Buzzfeed hurts them in some ways. I think Buzzfeed hired them specifically to help their reputation. It's working, just slowly.

[@gabriellex3098]

max morrison eh you can still objectify your wife though that’s taking it a bit far.

[@WagwanItsBonbon]

Gabrielle X Oh calm down 😂 it’s not objectifying! It’s appreciating. Many women react the same way when they see their husband in a tight t-shirt looking young and buff. How come when a husband reacts that way to their wife it’s “objectifying” but when a wife reacts that way to a husband nobody blinks an eyelid? Everybody loves to be offended these days, so much so that you can’t even appreciate a sweet moment of an old man reacting to seeing his late wife when she was in her hay day for the first time in decades

[@WagwanItsBonbon]

Gabrielle X I don’t need to take my own advice, I’m not offended at all I’m laughing at the ridiculousness of what I just read 😂 I know for a fact that people can be objectified but my point is that this wasn’t a case of that and claiming this to be objectification takes away from actual cases of it. Also you literally said “you can still objectify your wife” clearly implying that you were talking about the guy saying “oh yeah” to seeing his young wife so shush 🙄

[@gabriellex3098]

Wagwan It’s Bonbon actually I said that in response to the guy that said “how lmao it’s his wife”, because her being his wife doesn’t change the fact that he could still have objectified her and the same goes to any other relationship. I never implied or claimed that he in particular was acting that way, just corrected the previous comment and even said that’s taking it a bit far. You’re comment blew what I said completely out of proportion, probably due to your own ignorance, bringing in being offended over everything; so yes I stand by my original comment and you should take from your own advice.

[@illbeyourstumbleine]

My parents died in the nineties. So not long ago, but we were poor and didn't have a video camera. Sadly they both passed away when I was young. A few years ago my cousin gathered us all around the TV for Christmas. There was a video with everyone, including my parents at her brother's birthday party 20 years ago at her grandparents house. She just stumbled across it. My dad and his sense of humor on full display, my mom and her timeless beauty. I cried then, and I cry now as I type this. There I nothing more special than getting to see those who we have lost again, even if it's just in a video.

My dad left me his old film reels along with the old camera and they were old but developed. Growing up, at the beginning of summer we'd all get together and watch them. Very old cartoons and also he recorded us, he was old school. There was videos of ham when he was little and my mother and she was younger and of their parents and of my brothers and sisters who are passed away What I would give to have all that back as someone broke into our house one year and stole all of it along with dad's coin collection. My whole family has been go been gone for years and I pray and put out in the universe that someone drop them off on my doorstep or I find them. 10 years I've been looking. The only thing that is priceless to me is the people on those film reels that I will never see again on this Earth. And that is the only thing I had left of my family and not one other thing. These are priceless❤💔❤🙏

I'm an ESL teacher to Japanese, and one of my students also found 8mm films his father owned. He wanted to "watch the pictures" on the film, so he went to a photo shop, unfortunately, the professionals couldn't help him. But he was very determined to see the motion picture, so he manually developed it (he took a photo of each small film, then resized it on some photo editing app, onerous work!). For months we talked about his progress... I'll send this video to him!

My dad has a roll of film from his grandparents who lived in South Korea at the time of the Korean War - it was illegal to take pictures/videos but my great grandpa did anyways, the CIA confiscated all other film and my great grandpa hid his until he passed recently telling us all about it. It shows the North Koreans bombing and all the white women and children getting to leave while the South Koreans were just having another casual day because they didn’t have anywhere safe to go. No one besides maybe 3 people have ever seen it. And no one in the world has really seen images of the Korean War first hand like this. My great grandparents and grandma actually got separated because the men werent allowed to go with the women and children. And obviously no way to get in touch quickly so it was hard to find one another after the war. My great aunt and uncle (also American were put into concentration camps in the Philippines. But that’s a whole other story after Korea. Edit: my great great grandpa was born in North Korea, he was the very first missionary ever born there. Almost every generation since then has lived in South Korea. Should I post the film on my channel???? January 23: Hey guys! Wow the response had been Crazy thought I might get one or two likes so thank you so much for commenting an liking this as well as subscribing to my little KZbin, right now I am looking into the KZbin guidelines into what can be posted as well as what is the law about posting this in America so I don’t do anything illegal. I also am hoping to do a sit down video with my dad where he will be able to explain the footage for you guys as well as tell you the stories behind it all as he has first hand knowledge from his mom. I tried to make a community post of writing on the timeline of KZbin, on my channel but I need 1,000 subscribers to do that so I have to keep coming back here to update in writing until I’m at 1,000) anyways thank you all for the support and I hope to get the video out soon!!! Xx Don’t forget to subscribe!! P.s. I have Lyme disease and am about to start treatment and so if I’m slow to get the video up it’s because I’m very sick I’m sorry 🙃 January 27 - I just posted Part 1, come on over to my channel and watch! Updated May 15 - The reason the film hasn’t been posted is because I am currently bedridden and most days can barely get to the bathroom, Lyme Disease has been kicking my butt being in pain and fatigued 24/7 make for a tough combo. I can’t express how badly I feel that I excited everyone and didn’t follow through, yet. I will get the footage out as soon as I can, its on the top of my to do list once I’m not half 💀.

my great grandfather was taken to gulag during ww2 and was forced to work in camps in siberia. a few months after the war ended he managed to get back home in Hungary. but he was changed forever. he developed some sort of phobia for cold, he always wore winter caps, coat and thick clothing even during hot summer days, he was terrified of the winter and wanted to move to a warmer country. all he did all day was chop wood and store them in a storage room his house and during winter he constantly put wood in the fireplace, sometime he would wake up in the middle of the night just to put some wood in the fireplace. when he died we got everything he owned including his house because he decided to give it to us. as we explored the house we found a basement, which was full of fire wood and it had numerous antiquities from ww2 and ww1 as he survived both wars, and even some objects that dated back to the 19th century as the year was written on them. the biggest find was a family tree that showed our bloodline back to 5 generations. i the storage room and garage had some much fire wood that we used it for 17 years and there still is plenty of it left. i could never personally talk to my great grandfather as i was barely 2 years old when he died, which i really regret because i think he could have teached me some amazing stories

What a refreshing glimpse at life in those bygone years . What nostalgia ." Cheer up memories " for all to watch during this Lock down/shutdown period .Bringing back the younger years for those in older years !

[@gakkibear]

so cool... its why I don't understand why some people complain when someone takes pictures at a wedding, some travels, food, or just themselves being random. one day you'll forget those or be gone, no one will know bc you want to cherish your "memories" or "in the moment". memories fade and things happen... a picture stays for a long time.

Oh wow... this is so special. I really really loved your grandpa's facial expression. He was momentarily pulled back to that time in his life. Never ever let this film go to waste... if possible, save it for your children one day.

[@sistershook7486]

I’m surprised he didn’t totally ruin the film by exposing it before it was developed

[@dancrocker9318]

what the film is stored on is called a "safety spool" designed to be loaded in daylight. Basically because the metal spool is light-proof, and the film itself is light-proof, only the unwound stuff round the edges is exposed to light. edit: more commonly called a "daylight spool" which i guess backs up my point lol
