It's Deja Vu all over again! In Living Technicolor! Yes, this gorgeous true IB Tech 16mm print from my personal collection is the original version of the later Bell Telephone film that I put up last year that had a full 1970's Television cast - and using virtually the same script! One technical note about the transfer, because this print is made up with the original 3-color Technicolor dye sublimation process it is a softer than a Kodachrome print, and the color balance and brightness do wonder all over the place. I did my best to counter these issues in post processing, but in truth these 16mm prints were made very fast, and without the kinds of attention that a 35mm theatrical print would have gotten being made with the same tedious process. Still, it is a gorgeous sight of candylike color to behold. As always I transferred this print with my own Telecine. Enjoy!

Well acted and produced.
This obviously is an older version of that early 70s one with Pat Harrington.
A Jaguar craps out in the rain, who would have thought?
This was good. Directly relevant even now.
Impressive. The effort on scripting, acting, filming, music. Getting the message through. Advertising done well!
Many people today would benefit from these old training films. I’ve thought the same about some of the old army training films. Not the ones on firearms but the ones on basic life skills.

I'm amazed how many people don't know how to exchange alphanumeric strings and will just blurt out the whole thing in one go or the receiver will just silently take it in with no confirmation.
Ahh, Fred Clark you saw him a lot in old sixties television shows.
nice x-fer Frannie, gotta admit, if there was a channel with old corporate training films, I'd probably watch it- was that the same Dick Wessel that was in the Stooges "Fright Night"?
Great film. It should be restored and preserved and shown on television more often than it is now, which is never. And as Charles Gage had mentioned, there are many character actors from sitcoms and comedy films. Thanks Fran.
Push push push Wilson!
Imagine a telephone company to care enough to send a representative to help you out ahh the good old days
I’m surprised that MST3K never riffed on this one!
When did the finger stop on the phone start having the spring action?
Somehow that was entertaining.
Better characterization and pace in a public information film than the majority of 'modern' productions.
