My dad has never talked much about his childhood, so you can imagine how excited my sister and I were when we discovered a box of 16mm films over the summer. We never met my grandparents on that side, they both died before we were born. Seeing them in such a tangible way has been wonderful and has made them feel real for the first time in my life. I had the films all transferred to digital and a few weeks ago, we were able to see what gems they truly are. As I figure out how to use iMovie, I will share more clips. This one is from 1947, and is my dad.
