Luna Park - Spirits of the Carnival documentary
Ойын-сауық
A documentary produced in 1995 to celebrate the re-opening of Sydney's Luna Park - behind the smiling face lies a story of sweat, greed, competition and tragedy that nearly destroyed a city's amusement park forever.
For more than a century in Sydney and Melbourne, Australians have enjoyed 'Luna Park'. This documentary is the story of two men who dedicated their lives to the spirit of fun, Ted Hopkins and David Atkins - the builders and managers of Sydney's Luna Park. But their dream to bring pleasure to people would be plagued with difficulty: the Great Depression, a World War, the greed of big business and time itself. With each new decade Luna Park would have to compete with new technology and the dreams of a new age. When it was first built, Luna Park's combination of carnival, theatre and physics created a truly remarkable phenomenon... fun!

After the fires my family who have been in the carnival business for 150 years, went to Luna Park for the auction. My dad bought the laughing clown moulds ( they're all unique ) that we're used to make the clown's there . His set of laughing clowns were the first to be made out of the moulds after they were bought and the laughing clowns I own were the last to come out of the Luna Park moulds
This is why I'm so Obsessed with Luna Park Sydney 🎡🎢🎠🌛💙
In America we still have small traveling remnants during the summer. Sadly, we don’t believe they’ll return to my area bc last week dumb, ignorant kids were fighting. One brandished a gun killing an 18 yr old girl. Too sad. I don’t understand people anymore But great documentary. Loved it :)
such a good documentary 9/10
I love Luna park I’ve been there since 2002 when I was 2
