In the hip and swinging days of the 1960s, a strange contraption called the Scopitone jukebox seemed poised to be the next big thing.
The machine the size of a refrigerator projected short films - precursors to modern music videos - on a 26-inch screen.
Independent producer Jennifer Sharpe investigates the rise and fall of the Scopitone jukebox - and finds a rare, working model not far from her home in Southern California.

The S-Series Scopitone films were made by Harman-ee Productions in Los Angeles, a company owned by Debbie Reynolds. Most of the S-Series films were made in dye-transfer Technicolor, with the exception of
S-1000 through S-1004 and S-1016, which were printed in Eastmancolor (and are now rapidly turning red).
Ethel Llewellyn Ennis (born November 28, 1932, in Baltimore, Maryland) is an American jazz musician.
Ethel Ennis began performing on the piano in high school, but her natural vocal abilities soon eclipsed those as a pianist. Embarking on a solo career, she recorded a number of sides for Atlantic Records before the Lp debut, 1955's Lullabies for Losers was released by Jubilee Records. In 1957, Ennis moved to the Capitol Records label for a two-album contract, and A Change of Scenery was released. Soon after the 1958 follow-up Lp Have You Forgotten, Ennis took a six-year hiatus from recording during which she toured Europe with Benny Goodman.
Ennis was again invited to the recording studios in 1963, recording four LPs for RCA Records. However, disenchanted with the creative direction of the label and artist management, Ennis left RCA and took another hiatus, this time eight years without a recording contract. During this period she sang the title song for the 1967 feature film Mad Monster Party.
