England 1930s... Home Movies...Spread A Little Happiness

Home Movies from the 1930s.

The film is old footage shot in England in the early 30s of Mary, my next door neighbour here in London and her family. She turned 80 last week!

Who is the singer? It sounds like Marilyn Miller.

@justasondheimbaby Binnie Hale.

Very good. I suggest the music in this version fits the clip better than the other one. The location - South Devon or Cornwall?

[coolitababy]

@applecounty I'm not sure. I agree looks like West of England.

I like this one a teensy bit more than the Nilsson one, but

they're both *****!

[coolitababy]

Thanks, byrds' and thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated.

@coolitababy Thank you!

Visually, I prefer the sepia tone of the other version, but I like this song better, it's more "of the era." But either way it's an utterly charing little film!

The Harry Nilsson one is more powerful for me - it cements more the sense of passing time.

All wonderful though.
