Examples of Color Cinematography Produced by the Kodachrome Process

"This compilation of prints made in 1925 and 1926 highlights the strengths of the process with scenes of sumptuous clothing and fabrics, life-like shots of fruit, advertising setups, and abstract kaleidoscopic views. Prominently featured are shots of actress/model Hope Hampton, showcasing the latest French fashions from designers including the House of Worth, Lanvin, and Jean Magnin. These scenes were originally featured in the 1926 shorts Parisian Modes in Colour and Colorful Fashions from Paris, both of which were photographed in Kodak’s color film studio at the Eastman School of Dance and distributed across the US by Educational Pictures as part of the McCall’s Color Fashion News series." — James Layton

Night Will Fall

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
