Nice color video ....

by Richard Sullivan

65 Years Ago my Dad shot this film along Kalakaua Ave. in Waikiki capturing spontaneous celebrations that broke out upon first hearing news of the Japanese surrender. Kodachrome 16mm film: God Bless Kodachrome, right? I was able to find an outfit (mymovietransfer.com) to do a much superior scan of this footage to what I had previously posted, so I re-did this film and replaced the older version There are more still images from this amazing day, in color, at http://www.discoveringhawaii.com

I was going to say I had seen this posted before, but maybe it was not the digital version you just posted. Looks great and yes, Kodachrome was THE film when I used it.

Is there a way to make it full screen from the vid you posted??

Thanks again,
