One is Three in the Attic (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063693/) from 1968. Only saw it once, but it's a real period piece of the times and it had a good sound track with Chad and Jeremy.

Youtube link to one of the songs. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMs5mLflKvg)


And here's another one.

There's also a Youtube of the whole movie.


And the other movie is, ready for this? The Stewardesses 3D (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0168192/). I went to see it solely because of the 3D. Really. No, no kiddin'. Pretty much panned as bad soft core in the day.

But, lo and behold, somebody thought it merited preservation, check that link out....there's a current DVD release. Again, only bought it for 3D. Honest.

The restoration was very well done. The image(s) are clean, and the 3D was done as well as anaglyphic stereo can be. I'm hoping they do another release with Blu-ray 3D, that'll be much better. The producer of the restoration just has to be a 3D aficianado. The DVD has three versions of the movie; Non-3D, 3D in color, and 3D in B&W. Obviously, the B&W version will have better 3D; haven't watched it yet. That's the best 3D -- filmed (today, video'ed) live action shooting two images. Very, very nice. Of course I'm going to be collecting as many 3D movies as I can.

Yep, my viewmaster was one of my favorite toys as a kid!

Watching that movie (not all the way through yet), it, too is a great period piece from late 60's LA. Portrays air travel and travel in general realistically, and also there are some scenes in an LA Beach Bar that get me misty for the day.

The original Director, Producer, and Cinematographer knew what they were doing. There are some scenes that use 3D to advantage, like a scene where a pool cue comes out of the screen toward the viewer.

Another thing is that was in the day before implants. What a pleasure seeing natural anatomy. I've grown to HATE HATE HATE implants. Always obvious, always turn me off.

The fashions, the life styles...pure late 60's early 70's. Of course, in those days, full nudity even in middle of the road flicks was routine and usual so this wasn't all that far out there.
