Germany 1945: Sensationally restored film footage by George Stevens
These original color film recordings of the U.S. Army show various cities and locations in Germany after the surrender in 1945. The pictures were taken under the command of George Stevens, a Hollywood director who later became famous for movies like "A Place in the Sun" and "The Diary of Anne Frank".
The image and colour restoration was carried out with the help of artificial intelligence.

The realistic colorization IS incredible. But I find the restoration of the _frame rate_ to be the most important factor in making it feel more real and immediate. The jerky fast-motion of old films immediately makes it feel distant and difficult to connect to on a human level.

That's the least annoying option for footage that obviously did not include an audio track. Music of any kind would spoil the images so the publisher of this video used a neutral ambient noise for this video. If you click on the loudspeaker-symbol you could just mute the sound if it's too silly for you. I think it is a gem of a video. Unfortunately a lot of the lessons people learned in that dark period have been forgotten in 2020.

This is basically the first generation of people that could be recorded in full-color and high enough of a resolution to feel like you personally were there. The lack of sound recording on-field still gives you that feeling of a lost era. Amazing a few of these young people are probably in their last years on Earth right now. We really haven't had film for that long in a historical sense, this is very recent history. It still feels so far away, though.

Things are exactly the same today. People are still dumb as shit and easily manipulated. This will happen over and over again. It already did many times to some degree. Mankind is so shit, it will never be capable of anything good. Humans are just too dumb, and evolution won't help. Mankind will probably destroy itself with nukes or some damage to the ability to reproduce. Mankind is literally that stupid.. it will be the only living creatures to ever destroy itself. Everyone thinks they are so clever because they drive a car someone else made, but in reality, people are dumber than snails. Or worms. Or any creature that didn't poison its own food.

Wonderful restoration. 1 year later, I was born. 9.5 years later, our family was stationed in Germany 1955-58. Our father was a Captain then. A lot of the bombed out buildings and war artifacts were still around in those days. Pill boxes above and protecting the autobahn were still present and, as a young boys, we would often find abandoned military gear in the woods. Our boy scout retreat near Garmisch had a huge Swastika on the side and an abandoned pill box behind it with old ammo boxes and other war junk. It took a long time for Germany to clean up. Years later, (1967) our family was stationed in Germany once again but our father was a full Colonel by that time and Germany was totally cleaned up and beautiful.

It is still the cameraman's decision what and when to film and what not to film. This is already enough to distort facts or at least to create an influenced impression. Only a permanently installed 360-degree camera that runs 24 hours a day would be completely neutral. Such recordings can therefore only be small pieces of the puzzle that are put together to form a complete picture of history.

@@user-lr9ux8wl7i I think u man don’t get what fascism, nazism is and why our grandparents fought against them and why war started. 1) It’s not ‘guilt’ of German people it’s guilt of capitalists that supported Nazis and fascists in range of countries such as japan, Italy, Finland, Germany, Spain etc. 2) Fascism is open terroristic dictatorship of finance capital. - when dictatorship and suppression of people becomes opened by terroristic methods. For example in Russia fascists were white movement and people such as Kolchak. Nazism is fascism+race theory/radical racism. This all termins about shape but not about essence. Essence of both fascism and nazism is imperialism as finial stage of capitalism. 3) war started couse of resources, profits, sell markets and money that was divided by means of war/ battle conflict and that was started by monopolies - their interests has started both ww1 and ww2 3) Idk how urs grandparents but my fought in war and they fought not against German people (that are our cultural, ethnical long term relatives - even language ) but against nazism and couse of this there no slaughtering of German people after war If u wanna revenge - comon become same as Nazis, fascists, imperialists , couse this is what all about.

I wonder if it was 16mm Kodachrome. Or it might have been 35mm Ektachrome. Either of those kinds of films would return that kind of quality. The camera's pans were very smooth and even which tells me that the tripod had a fluid head so most likely the camera and lens were also professional quality. Of course they would be professional in quality since these scenes were filmed by George Stevens who was an award-winning cameraman and director of feature films. www.imdb.com/name/nm0828419/bio?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm Terry Thomas Cinematographer Atlanta, Georgia USA

By 1950, the participating countries had returned to, or exceeded, their prewar production levels. For the United States, the Marshall Plan provided markets for American goods, created reliable trading partners, and supported the development of stable democratic governments in Western Europe.

Я из Кыргызстана. У моего отца два брата не вернулись с войны, пропали без вести. Младший был призван ещё в 1939 году, а старший - мобилизован в 1942. Нет вестей до сих пор. Самого отца призвали в 1944 году по достижению призывного возраста, служил в артиллерии. Вернулся из армии в 1950 году, много рассказывал про свою 6-летнюю службу в армии, как их в резерве готовили к войне, но на войну не вступили. Из за этого в военкомате его не признали как участника ВОВ, так как не был задействован в войне, а состоял в резерве. Но граждан, не призванных в те годы на войну (по возрасту, по болезни или по другим причинам), посчитали труженниками тыла и приравняли к участникам ВОВ. Какая-то непонятная логика. Мой отец лишь один раз поднял этот вопрос, сказав что даже людей младше него по возрасту приравняли к участникам ВОВ, но ему ответили что они в тылу были, а мой отец в это время в армии служил. Понимая бесполезность им объяснять, отец больше не поднимал этот вопрос. Умер в 2008 году, так и не узнав о судьбе своих братьев...

According to Harald Jähner's book "Aftermath: Life in the Fallout of the Third Reich, 1945-1955" that particular footage is faked "...the supposed 'rubble women' look so playfully at the camera as they throw their bricks that one would have to be completely credulous to think they were real. In fact they were actresses." He also notes that during the war Goebbels had had similar films made to demonstrate 'the spirit of the people'. Not all is always as it seems.

The last war fought on the soil of Continental United States was the US Civil War. No one alive today remembers the horrible destruction and carnage of that war. Today the arrogant chicken hawks in Washington and Brussels think they can remain safely behind the lines as they send young men and women to fight and die for them. But Russia had nukes and so do the US and NATO. Who will be the first to deploy nukes? The side that is losing in conventional conflict. And from there, inevitable escalation! And then the clowns and Washington and Brussels will join the Russians as first hand experts on the subject of war's destruction of their country, their community, their homes and their families; they and all the rest of us!
