America Lost and Found (1979)

——UPGRADED——

Composed entirely of archival material and narrated by actor Pat Hingle, this hour-long film documents the run-up to the Stock Market Crash of 1929 and the Great Depression that followed. Made in the 1970s, the film carefully lays out major historical events, as with the stunning footage of the German Zeppelin Hindenburg bursting into flames over New Jersey in 1937. Powerful images such as this are both literal and metaphoric documents of the tragedies of the age. By relying on the old newsreels alone to depict the events, the filmmakers immerse us in the period in a way that would not have been possible had they interviewed a team of experts. 

Directors: Lance Bird, Tom Johnson.
Writer: John Crowley.
Stars: Pat Hingle (narrator).
Composer: Arthur Gorson.

Thanks to Sean Ramsdell for the headsup on this unedited copy that turned up on Youtube, you can also watch this one on 4K Tape Archive’s Youtube channel, the quality isn’t great, it’s a very snowy transfer but at least it’s unedited, audio is pretty good.
