I came to live in California from the UK and found the place and still do a fascinating state. I'm sure things have changed a great deal since this film was made, but I will say that California still fascinates its visitors. It really is a great sate.
It's interesting to see how many of these places and recreations still exist. I know people like to trash on California - and yes, LA and SF have gone to hell and our government is worthless and corrupt - but the rest of the state is still beautiful and there's no denying that, especially during wildflower season!
Living in California anytime from about 1935 to 55 was probably great but after the 60's the place has gone to hell. I used to want to visit as a tourist....no longer
I love watching these old films and wondering where or when they were actually viewed. But, I hate your massive "This belongs to me" logo across the screen. It is very distracting. I suppose I should be grateful you didn't plaster it even bigger across the middle of the screen.
Strange film. I've always pictured California more... on fire. 0:15 Ahhh! Now I'm going to have nightmares every time I see an F7. 1:16 Radio Row doesn't have any stations broadcasting along there nowadays. 1:57 And everybody's hair will fall out. What they flushed in L.A. back then ended up right there. 5:01 Or a look at old Los Angeles until our greedy white asses stole it from Mexico. 11:06 Who knew it snowed in California? 13:13 The only train footage in this film! The San Diegan. 15:05 Trippy railroad heralds dude. Far out! 15:21 What's with the sailing ship? It's not like Santa Fe is a railroad company. LOL. Seriously, why not a train?
weeelllllll.. OK THEN.. that opening with the transforming train wasn't creepy or anything.. noooooo
Yep, that was.... different....o_O
It was awesome.
Before my dad died in ‘09 he said he was happy he came to California when it was great.
It really was a paradise. Now it's a hell hole.
Boy-O-Boy, you want to talk about giving a WHOLE new meaning to the expression "That was then, and this is now" OY!!

Shocking, unbelievable difference between then and now. God help us.
Yes! Great! Travel with style!
oh from a descent place to go to the country's landfill in less than a century!!!
@david woods because a landfill is where garbage ends up and stays i'd have used sewer but a sewer empties out somewhere!!

California then : lots of fun, lots of happiness.
California now : lots of crimes
