- Paris 1939 in COLOR !!
Here is a wonderful private 16mm kodachrome and agfacolor color home movie I found years ago at a flea market. It is taken by an american tourist in and around Paris France 1939 just before the German invasion 1940 and at the same time as the Second World War broke out with the German invasion of Poland 1939. These wonderful rare color scenes of Paris life have never been seen before.
As I have collected thousands of color photo slides from all nations during the Second World War, I have also had the luck to find some fantastic private home movies from that time period in 8mm and 16mm format. Here is 1 of 2 videos I have got converted to digital and would like to share with the World.
If you are interested in Second World War history or just color photography please check my archive photo site pixpast.com
Also if you by any chance have any color slides or color films from WW2 please contact me.
Thank you and enjoy the videos !

France was so beautiful
still is ;)
Some lovely color video footage of Paris, just before the Nazis came marching in. And the people in that video had absolutely NO idea what was coming, sad to say!
Document fascinant pour un parisien actuel. Voyage dans le temps garanti ! Pas mal de vues platement touristiques, mais quelques prises de vue sur les parisiens, leur allure, leurs costumes, les magnifiques "conduites intérieures" de l'époque, très colorées, et ce magnifique ciel de Paris, éternel et immuable !
so clean so lovely.......................unlike liberal Paris today -.-
I have photos of my grandmother as a girl in some of these places. It's amazing to see a video, to see her Paris come alive. Thank you for this priceless treasure!
@ 11:25 - It's a little after Twelve on a warm sunny day and the train is on-time! If only we could make out the headline on the newspaper earlier in the film. Amazing footage, none the less!
This is an outstanding documentary.
calm down stupid
As an Englishman who loves France, I watch this in the aftermath of Brexit and weep!
Parts of Paris, particularly Les banlieues, are most uninviting today. Not at all how I remember it.
"an Englishman who loves France"... ??? Does it really exist then? 🤔🤔🤔 Strange... As a proud Frenchman and a proud European citizen of the Union (yes when you're a logical and balanced 21st century European who loves the country and the continent where you was born and you living, you're both), I can't believe it. No doubt a perfidious Englishman and English spy who plays a double game... ^^
Amazing! Thank you for sharing!
Nice Two Thumbs Up Gruss Wolfgang
Por un segundo pensé en subirle el volumen😂😂😂
This needs to be speed corrected.
No migrant CAMPS HERE. !
Замечательные архивные уникальные кадры👍
Avec un petit air d'accordéon, ce serait parfait.
Предокупационный Париж...скоро по улицам Парижа как мы знаем из кинохроники и через арку будут кованым сапогом шагать маршем солдаты окупанты...это все история и мы должны принять исторические истории прошлых времён...таков наш мир состоящий из истории настоящего и предстоящего🙂
If you only know what's about to happen Frenchies!
... we would have really prepared for this coming war, obviously inevitable in the face of the big imperialist aggressiveness of the German Nazi fanatics with a psychopathic madman in their leadership...
France was ready for WW1, it was not ready for WW2 or had prepared much too late.
From 1938 only, with a campaign of rearmament and modernization of its army too late to be ready 1 year later (the Nazis rearmed and prepared Germany for war with force since 1933).
With also the enormous mistake of not having continued to build its Maginot Line in the west of its ground up to the Channel so as not to upset the Belgians and the English, BIG stupidity!
I remind you that the German army with its blitzkrieg never made the big mistake of going straight on the Maginot Line, it bypassed the Maginot Line through Belgium where the French border did not have the Maginot Line. :-/
But also it must be said that after WW1 the French were enormously tired and traumatized by the wars... Tired and traumatized due to the 1,500,000 soldiers killed out of a population of 28-29 million inhabitants during the Revolutionary-First Empire wars (1790-1815) one century before (even if France was at that time the most populous country in Europe, even more populated than the Russian Empire), but also and especially by the 1,600,000 soldiers killed during WWl 1914-1918, 20 years before only! Out of a population of 40 million inhabitants in 1914! No family had been spared by WW1 and had at least 1 but more often several soldiers killed on the front line. For an idea of comparison, the number of soldiers killed for the USA during all the WW2 is about 350,000 out of 160 million inhabitants at this time, no comment...
❤️😻😎👍
How can it be colored if it was filmed in 1989?
It was filmed in 1938 or 1939 and there was, expensive, color film for the rich and wealthy. Kodak, Agfa and some other brands offered this rarity.
This was colorized artificially
@ELIE KOPTER NO , this was colorized artificially
@ELIE KOPTER who cares about WW2, this tecnology existed in the 1890s but it was to expensive, do you think you know something?
@ELIE KOPTER its not important for those who dont have culture, and its missing 23 years until It turn a hundred, a person can be 27 and in 23 years he Will be 50 , but he's not "almost" 50 ,there's a difference
No parking fees at that time... The racket came later.
9:17 Not as many traffic rules either, as long as drivers could sort things out among themselves using their common sense. I guess there wasn't as much traffic either...
