Housing - blocks of flats. The new concert hall and the home of the circus - Big Top Deluxe. People lounging beside a hotel swimming pool - it has a wave machine. Mamaia Rumania's summer beach resort is featured. Nice shots of people on the beach then holidaymakers relaxing beside their tents in a campsite. Man uses a chest expander whilst his friend laughs.

Fruit stall with a display to commemorate the August revolution of 1944. Various shots of hotels and bright lights at night. Narrator gives the hard sell: "Suspicious, sullen Rumania is really a vivacious young girl, flirting with Western ideas and beckoning the tourist to come just a little further afield in the search for fun and bright lights. For some it could be love at first sight." Cuts exist - see separate record.

This is the Romania my parents remember with fondness.
Causescu still sucked
Your parents are part of its downfall then. Those who chose to slave somewhere else (in the West) instead of building up their own country. Because of globalist propaganda, defeatism and because it is easy to enjoy other country's spoils instead of making your own.
@@lemonde3415 And all the dictators that we have here in the western world don't suck or what?
@@KeshAndrew Very valid point! 🙏🙏🙏 Note that those still in the country are not playing their part.

Quite different from what the British media paints Romania as nowadays isn't it?
Yes, the media just shows the bad stuff and talks about how we are all bad people however they don't know the true beauty of the country
Romania is worse now than it was back then, true. But so is Britain. The problem is that our country, just like yours, has been hijacked by dark, corrupt forces keen on destroying our countries. As for how it is Romania portraited today in your media, it's indeed hypocritical and overexaggerated considering your countries own problems.

My parents moved to Canada when I was 8 years old and I love Romania so much when I turned 29 I left everything and moved back to Romania. I'm 31 now and I don't plan on ever leaving. I just always felt a deep connection to the land It's hard to explain, I wish my younger brother felt the same.

Looks so much better than today.
it does
Bc it’s full of propaganda
There was a bit of prosperity in Romania's 60s, but this is propaganda.
Did you really checked all the progress and all before saying this? Or just said it because it looks good? Have a closer look you c... mate
i thought romania is roman empire
Romania or Rumania? In the 60s was it more common to spell Romania as Rumania? It is actually spelled both ways in the archive depending on which film you are watching.
Romania with a "^"simbol over the first "a" ... we use diacritics.
there was a tendency in English for rather brief time to spell Rumanian hence you may find the Roumania, Rumania in some archives, it faded out in time, by the 80's the only acceptable English spelling was Romania :D :D :D
The correct spelling is România,
Cristian Ionut Oancea that`s how you spell the name in Romania, you have a different spelling in English, a different spelling in French, German etc. Country names are something you translate!
I like the "Rumania" spelling version, for obvious reasons....
Thank you British Pathe for making this brilliant documentary available for everyone. “The past is made out of facts... I guess the future is just hope.”

Looks much better than today.
@Pan Baron true. There's a British pathé video about my country too and all of the comments are like oh, so much better than today, capitalism destroyed our country, what a country was stolen from us, etc. Like, have these people actually been alive during the brutal oppressive communist regime they want brought back?
@Werm 01
Do you say the same about Capitalist countries or are you selective in your lying?
Yah, what happened? PROGRESS, GLOBALISM? AH, HA eu
That's because of the disaster of Market reforms and shock therapy which shook the nation during the 90s. Romanian (Rumanian?) GDP decreased 21% in the two years following the collapse. Like most eastern European countries, went through severe deindustrialisation and population decline.
In fact Romania's (Rumania's?) population is still recovering from the collapse. In 1991 their population was 23 Million, now their population is 19 Million.
Energy consumption per Capita in Romania (Rumania?) was 2,987 kg of oil equivalent in 1989, it's now 1,591 kg of oil. Almost half of what it was in the 80s.
Keep in mind though this film released in the 60s not the 80s so living standards were probably different from what I just described, but you get the general idea.
@Werm 01 In many ways modern Romania is better than it was in the past, in terms of GDP and GDP per capita Romania is much better.
Although if you measured Romanian GDP taking into account inflation, so GDP in constant 2010 USD, it took 13 years to catch up to pre-revolution levels, not 5 years.
World bank data :
Taking into account inflation

And even though something like the GDP of modern Romania is far better, that usually but doesn't always correlate to standard of living. GDP could increase but that economic growth can be concentrated in entrepreneurial sectors of the economy, meaning the average life of a Romanian won't necessarily get better. And even then increase in salary may not mean more money floating around as they have to pay bills for rent, education, healthcare, all of which have become more expensive. There's also unemployment. Romania's current unemployment rate is 4% and was historically higher due to recession. In 1994, unemployment reached 11%. Due to the 2008 Recession Romania's unemployment rate reached 7.1% in 2011, and only started to recover by 2015. and there's also energy consumption, which is half of what it was in 1989.
And I feel this is the reason that although the economy is currently doing well in Romania, things like their birth rates and population for example, still haven't recovered from the collapse and will continue to decrease. That's not to say Romania was better in the 80s, you have things like smartphones now and better consumer choices, but it's to say things weren't necessarily worse back then.

Wonderful !
I was there in 1972, on my old BMW R60. Nice people but very poor. The imagery is mostly propaganda.
Still kinda poor nowadays.
Our country had and still has a lot of potential in many ways. But , as what I learned in history class, we were always in the middle of conflict zones, between the great powers of Europe. And was though to be an independent country. Which just for shortly were.
The poverty, in my opinion, comes from the fact that we never had something of our own. Everybody took amd still takes from us and we became a numb ( and kinda d*mb) nation.
@@elenaautumnalmermaid6913 poor doesn't mean nothing. Maybe the wealth distribution it's kinda unfair but to say an european country it's almost poor it's not true.
Did you check their spiritual wealth ? Maybe there is some...
are you sure you wasn't lost? back in 72 that country wasn't poor!
By "poor" you mean not everyone had BMWs like you? Or what?
One of these days Romania , along with Italia, España, France, Portugal and Moldova will return to absolute greatness , through freedom, order and laissez-faire economics.
Greetings from Argentina to all of my Latin Brothers across the puddle
Please, not more neoliberal politics.
In Portugal, Neoliberalism doesn’t and will never work, and our politics here is a big joke. You have a socdem party, that is right wing; our “socialist” party isn’t even socialist; we are getting worse, day by day, because of the far-right rising even more; liberalism destroyed my family and other’s, for some years; the media are right wing biased; our law system is a joke; our president is the son of one of the “right arms”, of one of our old dictators (Salazar) and is a conservative, that doesn’t really care about human rights... That’s what capitalism does to Portugal, and that’s what we have.
I don’t want more capitalism, as many of the portuguese. We want real socialism, and that’s why the left has been increasing more and more, in my country. In my opinion, capitalism might start his fall, after the end of the Covid-19 pandemic, and revolution will start, supported by socialist organizations
That's a very 'nice' thought, but when was Romania, and further more, R.Moldova, great in history 🤔?
@@mxndim
Yes i know, very typical portuguese communist, frankly i don't much care for Portugal and Spain you can do whatever you want, just don't expect to get bailed out.

And we were never socialists, or either communists in Portugal, it's another capitalist country

A few years after this documentary was made, a fellow name Ceaucescu became the top dog in Romania. He led the people into a long and agonising twilight. Ceaucescu was executed in 1989, but Romania has not fully recovered from the poverty and violence he forced most Romanians to endure.

Frumos clip, exceptional....ce-am fost si ce-am ajuns....
Orice producator cu valoare mai mare de 2 lei iti face azi un film de 10 ori mai "Wow!". Asta e versiunea anilor 60 pentru "Eterna si fascinanta Românie".
Practic, discuțiile din comentarii compara o filmare de 10 minute, idealizata, comerciala, a unei tari de acum 60 de ani (doua generatii!!!) cu realitatea de zi cu zi, a aceleiasi tari, de azi.
Serios? E diferenta intre a ti se servi o friptura exceptionala, la un restaurant de lux, si experienta de a ucide, macelari si gati singur un animal, ca sa iti faci friptura. Comparam mere cu pere...

Romania 1964.Un peisaj pitoresc din mediul rural. Un fermier și turma sa de vaci . Fotografii din țară. Imagini ale Carpaților. Câteva detalii din istoria României. Scene de la un hipodrom . Prezentarea telescaunului de la la stațiunea Poianna Brasov. Imagini din București și instantanee surprinse la picnic. Mănăstirlie Bucovinei și litorlalul. Și multe alte imagini surprinse dintr-o Românie prezentată într-un mod atractiv de prezentatorul britanic în anul 1964 într-un filmuleț ce merită urmărit.

Truly amazing footage ..and precious for those who can compare..than and now..and it s says we go towards better society..well..i d prefer my country in 1964..with good and bad..right now we go to..nowhere..
I went to the sport hotel in Brasov in 1996, it was the best hotel and right next to the slopes. Every day our ski instructor took us somewhere fancy for lunch and then we spent the rest of the afternoon swishing down through the trees. At night a band played for dinner and then we had a surprise fashion show and I won a dress in a raffle!
I can barely hold my tears while absorbing the cultural impact my country once had.
7:01 'Romania is really a vivacious young grill flirting with Western ideas' - well done description. Romania is the gate when you go to The East and the gate going to The West, geographically and socially speaking is the center(heart) of Europe.
Goodness me, I remember "Pathe news" between the B film and the feature film.

When actually did the image of Romania change so dramatically in the Western media to become the opposite of this enchanting picture in full colours ?
Now you see power of lies Tv and media?
This specific film is meant to sell you on Romania as a tourist destination. It's not a news item talking about some problem in the country, that would be out of place. British Pathé has a lot of travelogue films, and every one of them is going to be polite and have nice things to say about the place they're talking about. It's common courtesy with the format. Again, it is not the news. The news can talk about issues. This is just fluff.

Depinde cine pentru ce plătește, că și aici.
@@nouaranouara9939 Nu conteaza ca toata lumea avea casa si servici. In acelasi timp, toata lumea era saraca.
Bună întrebare....!
My grandparent went to Romania around this time. They loved it.
I guess there was some tourism push, not sure who instigated it, the Romanian government? Or perhaps British travel companies? Or both?
Probably the trade union movement in Britain was involved also - they often organised and publicised trips to communist countries to show how the 'workers paradise' looked. In the 60s for example many left-wing British people would not visit Spain or Portugal because they were considered 'fascist'.
6:07 for thumbnails.
In the 70's everything went downwards till 1989 when communism just imploded, democracy is not perfect but still much better than the other option ...
Every country goes through crises, even the ones you consider "democracy".
Cum arata ROMANIA in 1964 !!!
Nici pe departe Romania in 1964 nu arata asa. In filmulet sunt aratate doar partile frumoase. Era mizerie si saracie cat cuprinde si pe vremea aia, nu mai vorbesc de regimul opresiv. In general oamenii isi aduc aminte doar lucrurile frumoase din trecut si le ignora pe cele negative. Oamenii isi cosmetizeaza amintirile
@@SuperThe86 ba era chiar așa. Eu m-am născut în Constanța. Mergeam în Mamaia în fiecare weekend. Era plin de străini. Curățenie peste tot. Plajele erau curate. Hotelurile ptr scandinavi și nemți erau full . Mai intram și noi pe la shop-ul lor. Lumea chiar știa să se distreze.
@@nouaranouara9939, lasă-l că e micuț, și nu știe ce scrie...
@@nouaranouara9939 Afara de Mamaia ( Romania) unde se mai mergea?
În unele zone arăta probabil bine. Dar pe urmă s-au umplut marile oraşe de ce cei care nu se pot adopta în viaţa marilor oraşe, iar după 1989 cam zero planificare şi fiecare a făcut ce i-a trecut prin cap.

6:32 beautiful.. I mean that innocent animal..😁😉
You mean that mammal?

Ahaha, this looks like a pre-Fallout game. You can find similarities to North Korea also with the fake smiles, buying, selling abundant food, etc.
I never seen rain in vintage video...
So modern buildings and technologies and even clothing during 1964 Romania..
when they say nostalgia, i hope this is what they mean, not the stupid communist era that traumatised all of us, also it looks even better than today's romanian reality
seriously ? today Romania is one of the poorest countries in europe
Ce timpuri nu erea inca manelele ucigase

My parents left Romania mid 60s,but till these days they point out how wonderful Romania is.
In amintiri....ca daca ramaneau acolo isi blestemau viata.
Did they leave illegally? Because I heard no one was allowed to leave Romania unless you had permission from the government or if you were a communist party member you couldn’t leave if you were a political dissident.
