That turntable in Shawshank also makes records. My parents had one and we would buy blank discs, plug in a mic and that large tone arm looking thing would cut the audio direct to the disc. Sure it sounded bad but it did work well enough to record dialog for us to send overseas to family. Still have some they sent us somewhere.
I have that record cutter. A Meissner Phono-recorder/PA system from 1947. When used properly, it can make some amazing recordings. Mine, however, has... other ideas, most of the time. As cool as that scene is, the thing that annoys me is that they cranked up the wrong volume knob. The left knob is for the mike input only, the right knob is for the radio and record player's volume.
@@jcmolero71 Nah... It was David Gammon's original, not the J A Mitchell version, which is very similar. It wasn't modified though. I'm pretty sure it had the Vestigial Arm, but I'd have to check... Beethoven's Ninth though!
The film I like is My Girl. In the film there's a scene when Vada arrives home and goes up to her bedroom, puts a record on her record player, the record is Wedding Bell Blues by The 5th Dimension, and she grabs a picture that she and Mr Bixler, a writing class teacher, is in and she starts singing to him. A very memorable scene. Another one I remember is the opening scene of Billy Elliot when he puts Electric Warrior by T.Rex on the record player and plays Cosmic Dancer. Great song, great album.
*WHAT?!* No love for that scene in THE BLUES BROTHERS, where Jake, fresh out of prison, crashes at Elwoods 'elegant abode' and passes out to the sounds of Louis Jordan's 'Let the Good Times Roll' on the old portable?
I own the same model of record player that was in the shawshank redemption! It's a Meissner 9-1065 "portable"(It weighs about 35-40 lbs) Phono recorder and P-A system from 1947. In the one used in the movie, they replaced the tonearm with a better tracking one as the original sometimes has trouble playing records. They also, for some unknown reason, put a large piece of fabric over the speaker.
Also in Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom, the co-main character Suzy brings a really cool portable record player when she runs away and in The Royal Tenenbaums theres a power scene two main characters have while spinning a record in a tent
Favorite moments in a movie featuring a record player A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night: The Girl takes Arash to her house and puts on Death by White Lies. It’s a very tense/romantic moment and it’s probably the best scene in the movie. Only Lovers Left Alive: The opening scene with the song Funnel of Love by Wanda Jackson playing at a slow speed while the main characters are waking up. Maniac: the killer’s date/victim plays Goodbye Horses by Q Lazarus
Disney/Marvel - "Antman" Paul Rudd falls into a party scene and onto a record while shrunk down. He hangs on to the grooves in the record for his life as it spins and the stylus needle hits him. It knocks him away as the record skips.
A funny scene in Boonock Saints, is when the italian character comes home and starts cleaning everything out to run from the bad guys, he grabs a bunch of his records and one of the most Iconic record covers ever made shows up in his stack: Herb alpert and the TJB's "Whipped Cream and other Delights".
Re: Almost Famous, it’s a Tru-Tone kiddie record player - what RUclipsr RadioTVPhonoNut calls a “One Tube Wonder”. They were the Crosleys of their day and they were legion, similar ones were released in all colors, styles and brand names well into the 70’s. I had a psychedelic Acid Green Silvertone model from Sears when I was 5. I haven’t seen Almost Famous in years, but as I remember the scene, he’s listening to music with headphones, which you couldn’t do with those types of little suitcase kiddie players: they NEVER had headphone jacks; only the slightly fancier models with record changers, for teenagers, would have those
The final scene from Mad Men episode Lady Lazarus! I'm not sure which season it is but Don plays Tomorrow Never Knows off of Revolver by the Beatles. One of my favorite scenes from a TV show by far.
Into the Spiderverse, when Miles’ uncle starts playing a record in his apartment when you first meet him. I was already into the hobby at that point but I was like, damn, that’s a cool looking setup, even for an animated film.
1 Season of "Falling Skies". They are using a "Lenco B55" that's built into a compact stereo center from the 70's and they are playing "Many rivers to cross" bei Jimmy Cliff!
Hey Jarrett, this was a good video idea! I actually watched The Mechanic last night because I had never heard of it until you mentioned it, haha! I laughed out loud at "DON'T EVER TOUCH THIS" :D
Klaatu were heavily rumoured to be a re-formed Beatles at the time. I remember the huge push this gave them. Of course they weren’t, but what an odd chapter to the legend.
season one of stranger things is the best so many good memories from that show. I ended up making a mixtape on cassette recently for songs that remind of fall and "Should I Stay Or Should I Go" is on it.
The Mechanic II also start with a turntable scene. I watched the first one on a plane and a few years later I was able to puchase that Project. Cheers from Chile
Hey Jarret my sister has a blue Crosley suitcase record player but what she doesn't know is that this year for Christmas I'm gonna get her an Audio Technica LP60 Bluetooth record player
If you haven't seen it, the action film "Nobody" from this year (2021) has a record player scene in it. It's also overall one of the best mainstream action films of the past couple of years.
Check out 'Une heure de tranquillité'. It's a French movie about a guy who buys this rare record and rushes home to play it on his awesome expensive setup, but people keep preventing him from doing it.
In the Japanese anime "Serial Experiments Lain", Lain goes to a Techno Club where the DJ is spinning the vinyl. But the best one I can think of is A Clockwork Orange which someone has already mentioned. It's a Michel Transcriptor. Personally I would have used the Michel Gyrodec, much prettier, but maybe that one wasn't around then.
1972 - Le grand blond avec une chaussure noire (Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe). At least two turntables (one at Jean Rochefort's den, another at Pierre Richard's home), and a Nagra or two.
There is a great scene in Moonstruck where Nicolas Cage is playing opera on his turntable while Cher is leaving walking down the street. Also there is a scene in the movie CALL ME MADAM in a department store where Donald O'Connor is watching what looks like a broadcast turntable play a 78 before he starts singing to the tune.
The Mechanic is a remake of an original 1972 movie, where the main character was Charles Bronson and the spoiled sidekick was Jean Michael Vincent (RIP to both). But it also interested me when I compared both movies, the original movie did not give so much detail about the stereo as the remake. I remember Bronson was putting a record on the platter on what appears to be a high-end stereo back then, but no one cared about it because vinyl was the main music media back then. No one cared about the stereo, no one cared about the record, but the emphasis was, the hired hand was resting himself after his tough job with classical music on a nice stereo in an isolated place. In the remake, I realized the director preferred to give more emphasis to the stereo system itself. Also if you have a chance to watch Almost Famous' DVD extras - I know no one watches DVD anymore but you miss out those extra details - Frances McDormand is actually a Black Sabbath fan, where she says she was headbanging to Black Sabbath back those original times when she was actually a young girl, rather than a nosy professor mom she acted in that movie :)) Also interestingly, I saw a turntable scene with Beasty Boys in the remake of Star Trek in 2009, where Kirk was in bed with two gorgeous alien girls, and somehow the turntable - although it looks entirely manual and a high end to our standards - was playing the whole night... in the year 2500s...
Looks, I have to question my memory though. I went back to the original movie and saw Arthur Bishop, played by Charles Bronson, listening to his "classy" classical music in cassette tape :)) Shame on me!.. :)) It's not vinyl.
The only record player that comes to my mind right now is from Garden State. Sam (played by Natalie Portman) has a record player in her room together with crates of records. It isn't all that special, except for the anecdote that they had to teach Natalie Portman how to use the record player.
Jackie Brown. Jackie plays a record when Max Cherry visits her at her apartment and he sits in awe of her. If you haven't seen it I won't ruin it by mentioning the song but it becomes very important to the story
Song of the day: The Razors Edge by AC/DC One movie that I’ve seen a record player in was Indian Jones and the Last Crusade, when Indy went into that German spy’s hotel room and the record player was playing music from that time period.
Suits. Warm Bodies. Oblivion. In all three, it's not only there, and mentioned, but clearly matters to the protagonist. In suits, he even upgrades the system in later episodes.
I haven't seen _The Color of Friendship_ , but I watched the DisneyCember review of it, where Doug Walker points out that the girls listen to records in one scene.
Hi, I want to buy a record player for Christmas. I know not to buy crosleys however I can’t really afford anything over $200. I’ve tried to do research but it’s all a bit overwhelming. Here are my questions: 1. Are Victrolas as bad as crosleys? 2. If I buy the Audio Technica LP60X, can I just buy the Micca PB42X speakers and nothing else. I heard that the audio Technica has a build in preamp and those speakers have receivers because they’re active
Lara Croft had a great turntable with a thick acrylic(?) platter in the first Tomb raider film. She did her aerial acrobatics as the classical music played.
A couple of good movies that featured vinyl records - "Coal Miner's Daughter" - Doolittle and Lorretta travel all over the country pitching her first ever 45 rpm record to radio stations. Similarly in Tom Hanks' movie The Wonders' only hit "That Thing You Do" is recorded to 45 and sold independently before an agent sign them up to a major record deal. Song of the Day? Look for this: "Remember Mary" by The Sweet Marie; came out in 1970.
When thinking about which movie of all times that focuses the most on playing records I can only think of one: PENNY SERENADE. 1941 black and white Cary Grant classic.
Shawshank Redemption starts out, he goes to prison in the spring of 1947, by the end he is seen driving a 1968 Pontiac convertible. I am not sure if we ever see a turntable in High Fidelity, just a lot of albums.
In The Blues Brothers movie: As Elwood & Jake settle into Elwood's rented room [by the "El" train tracks], Elwood puts on a 78' of "Let The Good times Roll" by Louis Jordan and his Tympany Five (Decca label, 1946) on a flip-down all-in-one portable turntable w/ceramic needle.
My end game would probably be the rega planar 3 with the external power supply and a gold note phono pre and separate psu going into a macintosh preamp with some prima luna 300 tube monoblocks the zu dirty weekends and dual rhythmic L12 subwoofers I kinda said this cuz if the first entry it kinda reminded me of my set up
The movie Sleepwalkers by Stephen King is why I wanted a record player. The main character plays Sleepwalk by Santos and Johnny and sets the mood for the whole movie. Check it out!
My favourite record scene is from the 1955 film "The Seven Year Itch" starring Tom Ewell and Marilyn Monroe. Basically what happens is once he meets Monroe's character and invites her for a drink, he puts a Rachmaninov record and visually sees her come downstairs looking like a diva! That same piece is heard frequently throughout the film as the characters develop.
Hope you're having a great day!

High Fidelity 2000, John Cusack owns a record store, Jack Black works there. Lots and lots of record talk. You would love it!
there is as well book with the same title, both book and movie are cool
High Fidelity was a very dissapointing "chick flick," completely cringeworthy!
@@freeman10000 what're you on about? it's literally about dudes in a record store
Oh yesss it's soo good
I mean it would be a huge surprise if Jarrett didn't already watch that movie. I'm sure he has.
There's a good one in Clockwork Orange that Techmoan has mentioned.
A Michell Transcriptor, I think it was modified for the film
@@jcmolero71 There was also a great microcasstte deck prop they made.
@@jcmolero71 Nah... It was David Gammon's original, not the J A Mitchell version, which is very similar. It wasn't modified though. I'm pretty sure it had the Vestigial Arm, but I'd have to check... Beethoven's Ninth though!
First one I thought of too!
Song of the Day:
Arnold Layne - Pink Floyd
The mechanic was the first time I ever realized a turntable setup could be cool. Great film.
The Shawshank record scene.Heart breaking and beautiful.If you dont cry watching this you are not human.
The Departed - Matt Damon listening to incriminating tapes
A Clockwork Orange , man. Classic!
I watched Love Simon and There's a part where Simon has an Audio Technica LP120 like you have when he's my In his room
The film I like is My Girl. In the film there's a scene when Vada arrives home and goes up to her bedroom, puts a record on her record player, the record is Wedding Bell Blues by The 5th Dimension, and she grabs a picture that she and Mr Bixler, a writing class teacher, is in and she starts singing to him.

Also in Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom, the co-main character Suzy brings a really cool portable record player when she runs away and in The Royal Tenenbaums theres a power scene two main characters have while spinning a record in a tent
Song of the day: The humbling river - Puscifer

Transformers fall of cybertron the classic
The beginning of Detroit Rock City from 1999 is a pretty great scene involving a record player
Favorite moments in a movie featuring a record player
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night: The Girl takes Arash to her house and puts on Death by White Lies. It’s a very tense/romantic moment and it’s probably the best scene in the movie.
Only Lovers Left Alive: The opening scene with the song Funnel of Love by Wanda Jackson playing at a slow speed while the main characters are waking up.

Thank you for mentioning The Shawshank redemption!!!!
In Looper there’s an awesome record player Gyro SE with Rega RB300 tonearm
Disney/Marvel - "Antman" Paul Rudd falls into a party scene and onto a record while shrunk down. He hangs on to the grooves in the record for his life as it spins and the stylus needle hits him. It knocks him away as the record skips.
The Evil Dead has an acoustic gramophone that gets possessed and starts playing. That whole scene is actually my favorite in the entire movie.

in 7th grade, i played a trumpet solo with one of the Shaw Shank Redemption extras on piano
I've never seen Almost Famous... but Tommy is one of my favorite albums/plays/films, so I'll have to check it out now.
