Note: the neg. version has sections cut throughout that are spliced in at the end of the story, making the commentary out of synch with the visuals for most of the time. Neg. version is better quality for visuals, but use print version if corresponding commentary is required.
Social Rebels have taken over. Swinging London is spreading and the youth celebrates it's own kind of culture.
Quintessential swinging sixties footage.
See separate record of CP 662 - SWINGING BRITAIN (NEG) for full description (*PM0421*). This version was transferred from print and is in correct order, with corresponding commentary.
BRITISH PATHÉ'S STORY
Before television, people came to movie theatres to watch the news. British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect. Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people. If it happened, British Pathé filmed it.
Now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in the world, British Pathé is a treasure trove of 85,000 films unrivalled in their historical and cultural significance.
British Pathé also represents the Reuters historical collection, which includes more than 120,000 items from the news agencies Gaumont Graphic (1910-1932), Empire News Bulletin (1926-1930), British Paramount (1931-1957), and Gaumont British (1934-1959), as well as Visnews content from 1957 to the end of 1979. All footage can be viewed on the British Pathé website.
