That black Chevy would still have a decent dent there. Also understand inflation means equivalent costs in 1949 would be much higher today. Not to mention I've been in a similar incident with a car from 2008. Just popped out the dent in the plastic and it was good as new. Plastic may break easier, but it's much cheaper to produce and replace, meaning so long as the body itself is okay, a bumper is pretty cheap to repair.
I think Kaisers were surprisingly common at that time, but they got scrapped mercilessly in the following years due to the maker leaving the market, therefore making the K-F range orphans.
That was before the movie industry was subverted. Back then, film was often used to advance education and morals, instead of degrading it. ruclips.net/video/bX3EZCVj2XA/видео.html
how about we adopt the simplest explanation ? microphones were worse back then, so were speakers . maybe they had to speak loud and clear do be heard. but i am not a native English speaker so there may be something i don't hear
There were no I'M LIKE or SHE'S LIKE or HE'S LIKE... what the f**k happened???...and who the hell are they LIKE? One thing though, they are NOT like me!!!
Intriguing due to its unexpectedly compassionate view of both the parents and the children, meant to guide them through difficulties in communication and understanding. I did not expect that outcome, though I am sure that despite the fictional scenario ending on a relatively positive note, there were undoubtedly further and likely legal repercussion for Bill. Overall, it seems a very balanced and reasonable scenario.
6:35 That looks like a rare and cool-looking GM B or C-body fastback; I think they only made them in '49 and '50. But why do the lugnuts turn backwards, not to mention the fact that they are barely tightening them.
All GM wheels I know of in the 40s were reverse thread. I'm not sure why but it made things confusing considering everything else was standard righty tighty lefty loosy lol
That garage door they don't build homes like that anymore. I had that kind of garage in my Florida home. There was a lot of great things about 70 years ago and there was a lot of bad things about 70 years ago. The drinking in the driving was a terrible problem. No seatbelts no collapsible steering that was a terrible problem the price of long distance telephone calls that was a terrible problem. The intolerance of the bisexual and gay young men was a terrible problem. The teaching of the hatred of the Russian people that was a terrible problem. We've come a long way but we're not there yet.
After production of this film, half the actors tested for cocaine use, mirrors from all over the set were missing. If it wasn’t for an astute gumshoe, this still would have baffled viewers today.
In the sequel, we see Billy getting the stuffing beat out of him, first by his "friend" whom he framed, then by dad, because it's 1949. I usually enjoy those old films, but I felt like I needed a LOT of wine with THIS cheese platter... The boy is lucky that they didn't make him "volunteer" for the local Catholic priest. They're alleged to be experts in bump and silence.... that'd teach Billy to watch what's behind him.
Religious experience or Crock of $hit? You be the judge. I think an extremely high cholesterol diet and rigorous exercise will get that father on the right path.

I cannot believe I watched it all!! what was I thinking?
" its that lazy no account son of mine.
If he was Pinocchio , his nose would be a block long, he drove my car."
Frank admitted that he was setting a bad example for Billy.
Family Films later produced the majority of episodes of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod's "THIS IS THE LIFE" from the 1950's through the 1970's.
1949 accident: fixed with a rag and a tiny paint brush.
2019 accident: 1 car totalled, other car $9,700 in damage.
Dont forget the prescribed addiction !
Not only did he fix the damage with a rag...the actual impact sounded like a dynamite explosion in a quarry!
" Oooh, a LITTLE polish and a rag, I'm sure it will just BUFF out!!."

@@computernerdinside Yes, plastic bumpers usually look cheap but they are a lot more practical than chrome.
The actor playing Bill played the young George Bailey in the movie It's A Wonderful Life. The car is about a 48 Kaiser.
Which backed into a Hudson.
I can't imagine my grandparents behaving like that.
My great grandparents mixed up cocaine and whiskey for the local school kids back in the 30’s.
I was 4 years old in 1949 this really takes me back ( NOT)
Unusual choice of car. 1947 or 48 Kaiser that reverses into a 1940 Hudson.
I think Kaisers were surprisingly common at that time, but they got scrapped mercilessly in the following years due to the maker leaving the market, therefore making the K-F range orphans.
1941 Hudson.
this was very good, really enjoyed it.
The son "Bill" is the actor who played "George Bailey" as a kid in "It's A Wonderful Life" (1946).
OMGoodness! so that's why I recognized him/his voice!!😂
Especially when he said, "Aww Shucks!"
That wheel was left threads. It's too loose with that speed wrench. It will cause an accident. Great job son!
You beat me to it. Maybe that's the setup for the sequel.
I can dig it!
They used to speak so clearly in the movies like language teachers 😂😂

That was a very intelligent analysis of the situation at hand. You don't find many people using their brains nowadays.
@@thomastaylor6699Yeah that is a pretty good review but I still like all the smart-alecky comments!

Wow
Did anyone else notice that the parents look more like the kids grandparents? My my. How unrealistic shows were in the "good ol' days".
Well, the actor who played Frank was 66 in this.

Well the Russians keep making it harder and harder to tolerate them 😂😂🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🪖
Jesus couldn’t they stammer like once?
Didn't even tighten that lug nut.
Super masonic!
Were those lugs left hand thread?
Thank you!
I thought I was the only one to notice.
Or is the video image flipped?
Today most kids don't have 2 parents or 2 grandparents living together
And after "the talk", Billy changed his name to L.Ron.Hubbart and all was well....
Did Bill and Sarah’s voices somehow get switched when they dubbed this? Yikes.
11:33 What happened to the rear-view mirror?
After production of this film, half the actors tested for cocaine use, mirrors from all over the set were missing. If it wasn’t for an astute gumshoe, this still would have baffled viewers today.

Wasn’t he arrested for child exploitation ?
@@Gfysimpletons What?
Never a good idea to loosen lug nuts , then put center cap on......
I'm thinking maybe the video image was flipped
@@computernerdinside I wondered about that too. Then I noticed the tags and name plates on the car were correct. Hmmm...
Nuts on the left side of these cars were left hand thread and right were right hand thread.
Similar case with several cars of the era.
@@JaspreetSingh-fo2qe I did not know that. Like bicycle pedals. Cool. Thanks!
@@JaspreetSingh-fo2qe Well then...the more you know...
... And why hasn't this been riffed on MST3K?
Dang people were just as crazy in the 40s as now. Tho they seem a little less crazy.
Nah, they were f’d back then too. Mean and nasty……

I notice the adults barely pronounced their “R’s”
15:48: Boooooooo! The voice of a guilty conscience won't let him sleep.
Is it me or does Bill have a little sugar in his tank??? 🤔🤔👨❤️👨👨❤️👨... Ahh SHUCKS it's probably just in my mind
Frank seems to have a slight Irish accent
That dude wanted to sin…….sickos…..
12:10 - Kaiser hits Hudson.
Who DID do the driving , Billy?
Gosh, for a moment there, i thought Billy might be an ... atheist.
Well, isn't that special.

So... Jesus is the answer to stolen cars? Oh brother.
