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 136,000 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 1984. All footage can be viewed on the British Pathé website. www.britishpat...
Discipline, Production and Tolerance comes to mind.
Great footage, wish it had sound.
oh home sweet home back in the good ole days. Remember going in town with my elders and enjoying the traffic and sights & sounds!!!
Just felt like I used a time machine
Just loving the cars !!!!!! Almost any one of them would fetch a good price today .
I remember drinking at the soda fountain at Woolworth and buying sweets by the pound!!
Thank you for posting this! The diversity in ethnicity and 70's fashion were both entertaining. :D
This is a very interesting video, I really, really love it but.... dat policeman LMAO!!!
Those were the days, sweet sweet T&T. Not now anymore.
Gold! People dressed properly to go downtown back then. Quite a few in their work uniforms like nurses & postal workers it seems. No guns back then like now too.
Thanks for sharing this.
I remember drinking rum in Lower Santa Cruse.And looking at the street activities from a Dentist office in Port Off Spain. and the water Mellon cart.
Thanks for Posting ....Interesting Video, Port of Spain Has Change So Much Now, So Many New Buildings and a Neat Walkway (Called the Promenade), Now replace much of what is shown in this Video.
Lots of traffic even back then
I was born in the 70s and it was so beautiful and the air was so much cleaner. Love this video. Keep them coming💕💕💕
Very nice put up more if you have
Thank you for posting
At 2:48, a Cortina Mk 2 (box type cortina) passes by, blinged up with the angel on the bonnet . . . nice , nice
@hombre1968 At 2.05 the white rover p6 , wonder what happened to that lovely car ?
2:42 Police in short pants. I bet they miss it in all this heat.
wow amazing
Our girls were so beautiful back then. Everyone looks so decent attractive. No one looks obese, everyone looks healthy. I grew up in the 70s, it was the best time to grow up in Trinidad.
Beautiful
Good stuff :)!!
Honestly nothing much changed. Except more people take loans to pretend to be rich by buying new cars.
SystemRichie So true
That last building.What is it .
Based on the manner of dresssing this is either early or mid 70s. Doesn't look like it was late 70s.
The oil boom days 🇹🇹
Is there any volume? I can’t hear anything
No "fast food", "no obesity"
No right for Black people to own property
I'd rather be fat that live under segregation.
i didn't exist then
i was born in 1972.
