MILITARY FILM BLOOPERS U.S. ARMY FIRST MOTION PICTURE UNIT 58324

About

Dating to WWII, this hilarious reel of bloopers shows outtakes from various movies prepared by the U.S. Army's First Motion Picture Unit. The Unit made many training, incentive and propaganda films and documentaries for the war efforts during WWII, many of them featuring Hollywood actors. The failures in the film range from actors who can't remember their lines, malfunctioning cigarette lighters and doors, and more. At 3:56 , future U.S. President Ronald Reagan is shown discussing malaria when a map fails. At 4:22 , a rear screen projection (a common special effect in this analog era) is ruined by visitors to the set. And more! This reel was obviously lovingly prepared, complete with sound effects, by the staff of the First. Enjoy! We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment! See something interesting? Tell people what it is and what they can see by writing something for example: "01:00:12:00 -- President Roosevelt is seen meeting with Winston Churchill at the Quebec Conference."
