My parents were born in 1920 in Chicago, they both worked wherever they could from very young ages; and lived in relative poverty until Pearl Harbor was attacked. Both parents volunteered on Dec 8, 1941 and served until the war's end. They didn't talk a lot about the depression, war or hard times, but it was clear with the frugality that we lived, they never wasted anything and never spent unless it was truly necessary. They were good parents, but were practical. They learned that you do what you must in life.
History always repeats itself over and over. We never learn our lesson. As this age of history is starting to repeat itself. People now are so pampered and are not ready for what’s coming.
4 sure
Just like 1929

@@trentdawg2832 Buzz off Rube.
It doesn't repeat but it most certainly rhymes.
The force driving this? The nature of man which never goes away combined with the lessons learned which are all too often forgotten. Take today for instance. The utter tyranny brought to nearly every first world nation for a disease with a documented 99.9+% chances of survival and the requirement of experimental vaccines? That was only post WW2 when we made all of that ILLEGAL around the world. And yet here we are... and most of you accepted it. I did not, I do not and I never will.
I was raised in 30’s, born 1939. Life very hard. Now 83 , worked 40 years. Now investment totally wiped out. Just lost my 58 year old son to a sudden heart attack. Yes, history repeats itself. Life is still difficult
Did your son take the vaccine?

This series also had one of the great voice actors of Hollywood's Golden Age do the narration. It was Alexander Scourby and his voice was deep and resonating. He was a favorite of mine
Good morning john. You said; "Alexander Scourby and his voice was deep and resonating"
You are correct. And in most of his narrations, Scourby spoke in a refined, erudite English accent. Although his natural accent was that of a thick Brooklyn brogue.
He read the Bible beautifully, too.
@@kathleenmckeithen118 Good evening Kathleen. You are absolutely right. I have listened through the entire Bible several times.
He recorded a lot of things for the Association for the Blind.
I'll always remember his voice from the 1954 2-hour condensed version of Victory At Sea. The narrarator of the regular 1952 production of the 26-episode series was also memorable, and a bit more dramatic. He was Leonard Graves.
@@francisbusa1074 You are exactly correct. I have watched all the Victory at Sea episodes. It is interesting to remember all the documentaries Alexander Scourby narrated.
He was also in some Disney movies. Shaggy Dog was one. He played the father of the French girl.
It's crazy that for the first time in history we can watch film that is a century old all the people in this film are gone now but five hundred years from now they will still be the face of their generation

8:00 Possibly the greatest thing that could be said of King George is that he was a wonderful father. You can clearly see the love and adoration for his daughters. He did not want to be king, but he raised Elizabeth II to be valued and secure in her life and even ready to take on such a daunting task of being Queen when still a very young woman. She remained faithful to her task for her very long life.
But let’s not forget the man who was forced to give up being King because he dared marry not just any ol American, but a DIVORCED American. King Edward the 8th. Who never had any children anyways, so there was never no founded fear of blood being spoiled among the royal family with tainted divorced American blood. Couldn’t have that now could we? Proof that slavery still exists among the British & it’s called the Royal Family. Enslaved by birth to their public. Banishment if they refuse. Edward died in 1972, & being childless Elizabeth still would have been crowned Liz #2. But the fact the British kicked him out for marrying an American, then turning around and begging for protection from Hitler, certainly proves to me they didn’t deserve it.
the first love of all 'royalty' is MONEY; everything else comes second.....you're blowing a lot of hot air
@@entertain402 That's not nice

Oh, when journalism was alive and flourishing. And freedom was still top drawer. Excellent. Well done. I loved it.
Today's "journalism" resembles most the newspapers of the 1850s, which was, to put it nicely, shrill. Both North and South were screeching for Civil War, which they finally got. And it did not all become sweetness and light afterward, for then came the dark days of William Randolph Hearst, and after him, Henry Luce, and after him, David Sarnoff, and after him, George Soros - wait! Doesn't today's "journalism" remind you of something???
This was when journalists were journalist. Today, the journalists are nothing but commentators.
And a healthy helping of propaganda.
I like the scoring of this documentary with contemporary orchestral treatments of ‘30s popular tunes.
And here we sit, almost 100 years later and we're facing the same thing-fascism.
@@TugIronChief it’s the current Democratic party in America.
@@tylerburks6871 You need to stay in school and learn political science and actual history. You literally have no idea what fascism is. I am sorry, but your parents and school failed you, you are dumb as rock.

My father was born in late 1933 on a farm in Duson, Louisiana, the second-eldest of seven children. He grew up with almost all of this and it remained in his memory the rest of his life, until his death in late 2020.
God bless him
My father was born in 1916 and my mother was born in 1921. I learned about a lot of this in school (born in 1948) but I also learned a lot of it from my parents who lived through all of it.
My father was born in 1919 my mother in 1925. My father served in the US Army in N Africa Sicily and was knocked out of the war at Anzio after receiving his third purple heart.
@@anthonyfoutch3152 It is wonderful your father fought for to protect our country. I am so proud of my Dad, born in 1916, volunteered for the Army Air Corps right after D Day, married my mother (born in 1921) and stayed in the US Air Force for his entire career. I was born on an Air Force base and spent my life in the military until my Dad retired when I was 15 years old. I bleed red, white and blue!!
These are our grand parents and great grand parents for you younger folks. Truly, the greatest generation who did not lay down and take it but FIGHT!!!!!!
They were the "Greatest Generation"...🇺🇸 😎👍☕
if they only knew what was about to come ... these Periscopes are fantastic !
My Dad, born in 1916, fought in the European Theater in WW ll. I am so glad he is not here to see what he wound up fighting for.
@@kathleenmckeithen118 I feel the same.
That line toward the end was both terrible and beautiful: "Through the fun and fantasy of the fair, something whispers, 'it is later than you think'". Fantastic journalism and production.
The more things change the more they remain the same.
So true
The good old days.....
Always old, but not always good....
Good afternoon Michael. I hope you are well. You said; "Always old, but not always good...." I think you are right.
____________
My mother used to say:
"The only GOOD thing about the good old days;
Is the good old days are GONE."
@@josepherandolph Good evening Ran. Your Mom was a wise woman.
Like the man said "The good old days weren't always good, tomorrow's not as bad as it seems".
Today.....nothing is good. Getting worse....ya think?
Yup.
Science Fiction really took off in the 1930s, one reason the World of Tomorrow theme of the New York World's Fair which began in 1938 was such a success. The thought of living in the world of the future was very appealing to people struggling with the the awful present. Cheap pulp magazines like Hugo Gernsback's *Astounding* sold very well; Orson Welles was clouding minds as The Shadow on the radio, and Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers (both were played by Buster Crabbe) were rocketing around space fighting space villains played mostly by East Asian actors or white actors in yellowface--No less than Max von Sydow played Ming the Merciless in the 1980 Flash Gordon movie. The first Superman comic came out in 1938, and Superman wasn't just read by pre-adolesceent boys.
Well said
The apocalyptic radio drama produced by Orson Wells, "War of the Worlds," [H.G. Wells] in the Fall of 1938 played its role in stoking the drama. There were quite a few who believed it was a real thing. Wells' was clever enough to set it up so that when a competing station with Edgar Bergen had the 'guest' come on the show, people started tuning around on the radio dial. At this point in his broadcast he had the announcer make a realistic interruption and proceeded with the hoax about Martian invaders.
This demonstrates the power of isolated media consumption. Wells' got into big trouble with this, and had a lawsuit later because of it. Those who tuned into the Mercury Radio Theatre at the start of the show knew it was just a radio show.
Very nicely done. My parents were married in 1937. You brought back memories of things they talked about.
the 30s seemed very nice and formal... i read somewhere on how Americans were nicer, like you could leave your front door open and unlock because there werent any burglars like now.. you couldve also trust strangers to give you a ride because not everyone had cars and it was a way of paying it forward as a driver... good times, i'm only 24 by the way... i wouldve loved the 30s... the greatest generation...
edit: sad to say: everyone here in this video is dead... rip... thank you for leaving your marks on Earth.
Tears came pouring out when I read your post, I am 58 btw and yes I grew up in those days.
Now you are charged with going out and making your mark on society. Be kind
Even the gangsters and bank robbers understood the common people were going through hard times. They were generous with the money they stole from the banks. Every caper they pulled was done with style and flash.
A magnificent two part documentary. Thanks for sharing.

The economic commentary was wildly inaccurate in its rosy view of things, but the documentary as whole was spot on in totally ignoring the existence of black Americans, because that's certainly the way things were in the '30s, '40s, and into the '50s.
Thank you Periscope Film for sharing this!
I especially appreciated the film of Joe Louis knocking out Max Schmeling, because while it was happening I was being born. By the way, the quote attributed to Schmeling that Louis was afraid of him probably was created out of whole cloth by Goebbels's Nazi propaganda machine. It does not sound like the Schmeling who befriended Louis afterwards and even helped him financially when Louis was being hounded by the IRS.
As bad as the humanity of the Hindenburg crash was. 65% of the people onboard it survived.
Weren't the majority of those survivors severely burned and disfigured? Some of the 65% probably wished they hadn't survived.
Looks like history is making a comeback
My Dad was born March 1939.
9 years later My Dads passed away of a heart attack only 50 years old with 2 young children and a home to pay for
They married outside of each others religion.
My grandmother Nessie was Jewish converted to Catholicism so they could get married in church yes!
My grandfather was catholic the family disowned the widowed family in their time of need even though she converted they held it against them.
Dad dropped out of school to work & help support the family.
He told me this story one day of how he and his life best-friend Vinny aka Slugo life long friends!
They would go to the North End to where Paul Reveres house was and the tourist would toss change coins nickels dimes n Pennies for the kids after they sang a very detailed song version of story of The Midnight ride of Paul Revere to tourist was one way I’ll never forget this story ❤
This is an excellent video, great job.
If you can appreciate the music in countless of these old films, it's some impressive stuff, that except for only a tiny handful of musician people today, has long gone out of this world. Those old-time musicians were the masters of their craft, when people once actually cared
If there's a better orchestrator than Robert Russell Bennett, I'd like to know who. Most of the music in this film are popular tunes of the time.
People actually made great music then. Today some music is iddiotic!
@@larrygarrett724 i agree that the music and musician's of the 30's and 40's were hard working people and made great music . Humans vs computerized music is what is occurring now and is troubling. Drummers being replaced by drum machines etc.
People still care😊. Look for different types of music than your used to.
Long time musician, started in the 50's....the decline has been steady. There are good ones around....but they are not as popular. ...but if you're into the satanic garbage that fills TV and the internet, there is an abundance !!!
Thank you for this video.
Great videos ... particular was interesting to see the Queen today as a child on the balcony at 08:10 , Really connects these two eras.
And had not Edward Vlll abdicated Elizabeth would not be Queen
@@suestephan3255 yes, we would have had the child of Edward and Mrs. Simpson😝😝😝😝.
And now just a few short months later, she's gone.
This brings back the memories in how when I was a kid, my grandpa Hurd used to talk about 'n tell me about these things, or some of them like FDR. Grandpa he swore up and down that Bruno Hauptman was innocent and he didn't do it.
Guilty
Alexander Scourby narrating...classic!
In college I was in a prelaw class we did this trial. It was decided that that yes the kidnappers killed the boy, but it was an accident. He dropped the boy whole on the ladder, causing him to break his neck. Poor little guy, they had no intentions of killing him, it was something that should of stopped right then.
Now it would of been double murder because the mother was pregnant and she lost the baby from stress. Sad 😔
Did you also discuss how many doubts there must have been and that Hoffmann was proably not the killer?
My grandpa Hurd used to talk about the Lindberg kidnapping and he swore up and down how Bruno Haupman (if I spelled it right) could not have done it, and had been framed.
The entire US Gov't and all their "news" is all Theater - it's all bullsh!t.
Ever heard of the hegelian dialectic? aka Problem, Reaction, Solution?
If not, research it.
Agreed. I think Hauptman was framed. I'm convinced Lindberg killed his own kid. As for Roosevelt's presidency, horrible. We're repeating his failures.the US is so f'ed up, it'll never recover. All those workers that fought for their unions are jobs no more.
Hauptmann.
Everything I have heard about the case makes me also think it was circumstantial evidence. Enough to convict him of something? Maybe. How times were different when capital punishment could be doled out versus these days an obviously guilty (and perhaps confessed) heinous criminal can have endless appeals.
Thanks for posting this. Awesome.
Wow, No fat people with tattoos!
People got along with each other better back then imagine how hard it's going to be
My hometown of Flint, MI representing during the great sit-down strike that led to the recognition of the UAW at General Motors!!!!
They really were an amazing generation. I wonder if we'll ever have another one like them
No at all. We are head to a more authoritarian country... thats if the civil war doesnt happen. Just too many unhappy people that won't bend.
So will need that one guy in other to get things done. Oh and the constitution will be rewrote or newly defined without change.
No, we won't have another generation like they were. They truly were the "greatest generation" of my nearly 74 years of living. I am heartbroken to see what has become of this once great nation.
All generations have greatness in them, it's just that few have a chance to display it. Whenever asked, this generation always said they would have preferred to not have to go through a world war or have anyone else experience one either.

I was born in Hawaii in 1932, so I remermber only the late part of the Thirties. Hawaii was l little different from mainstream America, but they had some things in common like the milkman and iceman.
Im so glad you can enjoy your life at this age. My mom was born in 1932, but passed in April of 2020. I so enjoyed listening to her life and those of her relatives whom I never had the chance to meet. People were good back then, with few exceptions.
@@yfa6244 Sorry to hear, but 88 years old is better than the average. My goal was to live until 84, but now it is 94. So far, I have not depended on anyone, but once I can't do that, it is time to pull the plug.
This film is so important, thank you.
The time of my parents and grandparents. In my childhood in the 60s, the live wires, characters and hard cases of the 30s were still alive. A simpler but harder time.
Originally telecast as an NBC "PROJECT XX" documentary on October 16, 1959.
Thanks for the info. It should be in the description that precedes the comments.
We would do that but there's a 5000 character limit and we use that to describe the films.

V little parallel.

Nope. Did Ethiopia try to expand NATO to Italy’s borders?
Wow. What a great documentary. The 1930s were an amazing time in our history. One of the best Dad's a kid could have was born in 1931, in Newark , New Jersey...my Dad, Tom Sr...to a Jersey cop who raised 3 boys throughout the 30s.

At 58 I'm disgusted with what I see and hear, and I'm so happy my pal, my Dad shared his life with me....
Thank you...
Excellent.
Yep I’m in my 60s and all I’ve even seen is war and conflict, except a brief time in the 70s, 80s.
Vietnam was still going in the 70's
Very informative
One area not mentioned was the 18 month Crime Wave by the likes of John Dillinger, Bonnie & Clyde, Baby Face Nelson, Pretty Boy Floyd, Machine Gun Kelly and Barker-Carpis Gang.
Yup. The History Channel actually did a documentary about that 18-month period.
My folks in west Dallas and Ft. Worth had stories and memories of the couple. Their robberies were as episodes of a radio serial. They did right with us black folk.
Jitterbug, Swing and Big Band: copied from our 1920s Harlem jazz
An interesting thought I had watching this as it rolled the club clips around 15:36:
These people all look young and in there early 20s and 30s. This would mean that basically ALL of them are dead now. So interesting to see an entirely different time, living in a strange way, much like us, yet, so different, and so young, with an entire life ahead of them, that they've all now lived, and succeeded, or failed in, and we are now watching a very brief moment in likely the craziest time of their lives, yet again, much like right now for many of us.
That's profound. It's like watching my great grandparents' 20s, and now they've all lived their lives and passed away.
Radio, newspapers and magazines was your main mass media communication.
Not really. The moral decay had not set in yet on the level it has now. Kids were taught real American history and why our Constitution must be preserved.
I wish I had home videos of when I was young in the 60's and 70's but there were no home videos then. The earliest videos I have are from the early 90's which I had to digitized from VHS before they were gone. I'm so glad I did that.
The Millennials and Gen Zers don't know how good they have it. They can watch videos from when they were babies.

The 1930's was in 🎉 the middle of the First great depression 🇺🇸🚫💲, my dad was born in 1922 , and he always shared about how hard life was, ,‼️
The radio announcer was fired after his Hindenburg report. For being to dramatic over the top .Now he is a part of History.
Hmmm....Herbert Morisson was the announcer and continued his broadcasting career and in 1975 was an adviser on a Hindenberg documentary. No reports show he was fired unless you were joking.
Yep, this is how I remember it.
Just wow!
At YT's time counter at 25:17, Mr. Scourby quotes an FDR line that hits hard. Bravo! Does anybody know when and where he said it?
Each age is a dream that is dying or one that is coming to bear
This is so well done. A great window into the 30s. About the worst musical accompaniment ever.
Remember the TV show Sargant Friday. Just the facts, no emotions just facts. And then there was As The World Turns, this gave me hope, the world may seem dark, but the light does come if only for a moment. This time in history will pass.

@@gingerleegirl6697 LOL. MY thoughts exactly!!!
@@shirleyjust3305 it will! But humans will not continue ruling humans. That time is finished. Daniel 2 :44 provides assurance.
the narrator, alexander scourby, also recorded the King James Bible, which is still available on TH-cam, cd, etc. During the 60s, this was also shown in high school for US History classes.
Just like arnold said in t2," it's in your nature to destroy yourselves". We have gone really far forward. No one stops long enough to realize we have taken more steps backwards than forward. One emp spike and it's all over. Nothing runs today unless it has a computer. We are to dependent on computers! They will be the demise of mankind.
When Americans really stuck together and fought for freedom and everyone made sacrifices for the good of all people
Now we have Trumptards that couldn’t even sacrifice the effort to put on a mask during a pandemic to save the lives of our elderly and veterans.
And after they got the result of “freedom” through wars, they went right back to good ole racism against people who were’t white.
And except for the American Nazis @21:40.
🎶September Song🎶 My mother had the song on an old record.
I bet she could recite the lyrics. Most of the music on the almost hour-long video were well-known 30s songs.
It kills me that the same folks who could not comply with just weeks of quarantine and could not tolerate being asked to wear a mask are itching for a civil war in the US. These people have never studied the past clearly or they'd figure out war is not the way.
My father was born in 1927. Died in 2017. My mother was born in 1930. Died in 1992. They were both born and lived on farms. They knew how to survive.
Many parallels to life in 2020.
2022 now and we are on the precipice of a world war again. Days away.
The world seemed like a much better place back then at least in the States. People had manners, respect, and couth.
Don’t forget racism

@@suestephan3255 yes it’s always been. but c’mon it’s never been this bad.
Women's summer fashion looks similar today, the lengths have got longer again! Loving old styles at the moment. Again we had a revival of 30s 40s in early 80s with the sexy slinky satin and lace!

Great historical resource. Please re-post without the distracting watermark.
Here's the issue: Tens of thousands of films similar to this one have been lost forever -- destroyed -- and many others are at risk. Our company preserves these precious bits of history one film at a time. How do we afford to do that? By selling them as stock footage to documentary filmmakers and broadcasters. If we did not have a counter, we could not afford to post films like these online, and no films would be preserved. It's that simple. So we ask you to bear with the watermark and timecodes.
In the past we tried many different systems including placing our timer at the bottom corner of our videos. What happened? Unscrupulous TH-cam users downloaded our vids, blew them up so the timer was not visible, and re-posted them as their own content! We had to use content control to have the videos removed and shut down these channels. It's hard enough work preserving these films and posting them, without having to spend precious time dealing with policing thievery -- and not what we devoted ourselves to do.
Love our channel and want to support what we do? You can help us save and post more orphaned films! Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/PeriscopeFilm Even a really tiny contribution can make a difference.

The newsreels are interesting but the ads coming every few minutes ruin the video.

I think G is right. The ability of people to inconvenience themselves even slightly was manifested during the pandemic. Where I live, everyone no matter what political persuasion wore a mask, got vaccinated, & quarantined if the had symptoms. Why? To protect ourselves and those we lived. Many reasons, but one was certainly the spirit of cooperation we saw demonstrated during the depression and WW2. Having known all the childhood diseases, including polio, we were grateful for the speed with which the Covid Vaccines were developed & availed ourselves if the as quickly as we could. Modern technology has done wonders, but it has diluted group experience dangerously. It has also made us spoiled and selfish, irresponsible and petulant. In our endless search for individual satisfaction actions, we have forgotten we are all in this together..
Wow that was a really nice comment ☺
Back then there wasn’t a man named bull gates to cause great distrust
Anne Morrow Lindbergh - daughter of Dwight Morrow, a banker for JP Morgan and US ambassador to Mexico.
No biography of Lindbergh is complete without him being an America First hardliner.. Surprisingly even some biographies published in recent decades didn't even know of his secret families. WAY back when this film was made, no way they could have known about that.
Wow! I'm 95, saw it all and remember it all. Technoloy replaced a belief in our Intelligent Creator.
QUEEN ELIZABETH WAS ALIVE SO LONG AGO. RIP QUEEN!
Well done, although perhaps overly simplistic.
It was made for TV.
my mom was born in 1935. still strong.
My husband was born in 1935, but he died almost four years ago. 😢
@@hlnbee I’m so sorry for your loss, Helen. 😞😔. Men from this era are very special. My dad! He will live again. Like your husband. Acts 24: 15. What a wonderful promise that is!
The Spanish civil war and Italy and Ethiopia. Ukraine and Russia. Same old sad stories.
I would have loved to have been at the World Fair in Paris. That was a very sweet ending for the Thirties and this video.
Paris?????
That was New York, pal . . .
Yes yes it was in New York 1939 welfare the world tomorrow I think the title was
I remember a cone and a big ball for the 1939 World Fair in New York.

Faith in today's leaders is a huge gamble
Faith in leaders has always been a huge gamble, yes?
@@maunster3414 Youre right. People who want leadership positions are usually sociopathic and inflict antisocial damage on any society they're involved in
Leaders…….lol more like puppets
Screw 'Leaders'. We need "Representitives". China has Leaders. Russia has Leaders. Cuba has Leaders. Look where all this "Leader" Crap has gotten them.

hearttoheart4me, yes, a discussion instead of throwing words aimlessly.
A charming gathering. It might have been a gossip circus? Or a meaningful way to know your neighbor?
Nice connection, thanks!
At this time labor unions served their purpose, now they are more of a problem than a solution.
Oh yes, management will always be looking out for the worker. Like Hell they will.
Evil is always present in Life.Evil exist in the past the present and the future.This is a horrible part of life in the present.We live in fear of evil in our present Life.We can not live in fear because of this we must live our lives in the present.
Evil will be gone soon.
At 18 I joined the Air Force on in 1975. I just realized I am as far away from 1975 as I was from the 1930's then. Which of the two is a greater difference 1936 to 1975 or 1975 to 2024?
Hauptman was innocent.
Part 2 completely skipped the dust bowl and the great dust storm that reached the east coast and finally spurred Congress into legislation for better farming practices and ending the dust bowl to reclaim the farm lands of the plains states.
Part 1 dealt with the dust bowl
@@MarinCipollina But it didn't talk about the great dust cloud that blew all the way to Washington DC and New York City plugng the land into darkness. Congress finally realized something had to be done and passed legislation to gather experts to teach farmers better farming practices.
@@hawgryder13 I don't recall learning about dust bowl era storms intruding so far as the US East coast. Perhaps there's an untold story there after all. But when you consider the broad nature of the film topic, I doubt they're able to get that granular with various subjects and issues. If the choice due to time is to poorly cover it, or simply pass,.. passing altogether isn't the wrong choice.
These old films were made with a limited time budget so some things were skimmed over kinda lightly.
@@hawgryder13 that is in part 3

At 21:40, how many Americans realize that this occurred?
Bruno Hauptman didn't kill Charles A Lindbergh Jr. Charles A Lindbergh sr. did.
Looks familiar
