If any of you like vintage underwater films, there are some on eBay - The Frogmen (1951) about the UDT in WWII, The Silent Enemy (1958) about the Italian and British frogmen, and Submarine X-1 (1968) about British experimental subs in WWII.
I have all of these and they are great flicks.

"Underwater!" (1956) starring Jane Russel is one of my favorite scuba movies. It has beautiful color underwater photography, a nice theme song, and great shots of divers with double hose regulators.
The Lloyd Bridges 1966 movie "Around the World Under the Sea" is a classic.
And check out the old (around 1916) silent vesion of "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea".

Hi Folks, I think www.yesvideo.com is now in most Rite-Aide and Walmart stores, they will take your 8, Super 8 and 16mm and put on DVD for you at a descent price and can do some editing they will also do slides and prints. On their web they give you mapes to the nearest store in your area too. I haven't used them yet but have a lot of old films of motorcycle racing and scuba diving in Japan in the late 50's to try. Wish me luck. |
