Description:
Relive the dazzle, wonder and fun of The 1964 World's Fair, an extraordinary documentary narrated by Judd Hirsch that takes a fresh look at the sights and sounds of this once-in-a-lifetime event. Part futuristic exhibition, part glittery strip mall, the 1964 New York World's Fair was planned amid the optimism of the late 1950s, but the Fair's two-year run often mirrored the chaos of the 1960s. The fair was a brawling, costly and altogether chaotic event, but few of the 52 million people who attended noticed. Acclaimed public television producer Rich Hanley draws on the delightful memories of fairgoers who found a hope for the future, an understanding of other cultures, and a delicious Belgian waffle for just a dollar.
So jump in that old station wagon and take a ride back to the 1964 New York World's Fair!

Unlike others who gave this DVD a bad review I thought it was very well done, quite informative and entertaining. As a boy I visited the fair a few times and loved it . This DVD helped bring back all of the wonder I felt back then.
If someone tells you that they watched this DVD and didn't see the World's Fair and only heard people talking about it that could mean only one thing: they had their eyes shut. There are tons of scenes of the Fair here and I enjoyed every second of them. Yes, ... Read More

The positive review here should be a clue: if you grew up in Queens in the 1960's, you may enjoy this movie. Otherwise don't bother. This film turns the World's Fair into a neighborhood home movie, padding even its short length with a lot of purposeless, meandering footage and even more purposeless, meandering music. Watch your own home movies: they're probably better made.

Great memories. Many home movies combined into one DVD. I went to the World's Fair 18 times in 1964 and saw myself walking along in this DVD!

I was expecting to see the 1964 World's Fair, instead I heard only people talking about the World's Fair. You only see the outside of the Buildings. If you like to hear people TALK about the World's fair and see home movies of people talking about the World's fair then by all means buy it but if you are expecting to see the rides , etc. don't waste your money. We were very disappointed.
