VJ Day in Honolulu

This was pretty good.  Astounding job on film transfer, quality and sound.  Before my time ... 1945, but I really enjoyed watching this.

The link is here if you want to read about the son that had his Dad's old film footage transferred:  http://vimeo.com/5645171

Why is it that everything ... men, women, cars ... all of it ... looked so much better back then compared to today?  Hmmm.  Some good lookin guys in there and some very pretty gals too.  I can't get over film quality.

Kodachrome.  I absolutely adore old pics and video shot with Kodachrome.

If you click on the word "vimeo" here it will take you to a site where you have the option of viewing this in breathtaking full screen.

What a fuck-fest that must've been.

But still...in the aftermath of that we should've let Patton muster the Brits, Canadians, Frogs, and German troops under his command kick the Commies' asses back into Russia where they belonged.
