7.17 the Hotel Adelaide?

Sadly, hardly anything has changed

@3uckwheat Would you want to show aboriginals heckling people passing by the park lands in a video like this?

Love this film, and the classic cars in it.

Wow, is that a bottle of Penfolds Grange Hermatige on that dinner table? How lucky were they back then? No one could afford that now.

~~ ‘ Thanks For The Memories’ ~~ the 1960′s were Great!

Nothing at all has changed! Except we have no overtaking lanes or at least people drive slow in the right.

Replace the “A” from Adelaidee to become Delaide! cant wait to leave this retardation place.

These were the days when people were civilized and polite and when driving a cab was a decent paying job. Now days people are rude and obnoxious and you are lucky to make 5 bucks a day cab driving.

@xertia1
Don’t think so. They were up until about the year 2000.

@anomolyrox Which Australian city is better? Adelaide, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Perth?

The blue Patawalonga is an interesting one. Is this film colourised?

@isfckingevil No not colourised – it’s the real deal.

Really enjoyed looking at that. I suspect one of the shopping areas was Rundle Street, i’m no old enough to remember pre Mall days. I’m curious as to whether those featured were actors or every day people part of a documentary. I also wonder whether or not they’ve seen it since its gone onto Youtube. And one final thing, that i’m most curious about is which office was featured, i’m guessing it was a Federal Govt dept office.

Would be good to see bits of written text up on the film to indicate where the various places in the film are..

This is amazing!

at 13:37…. she questions him on her arousing suspicion of her being a “Kyle”

What a beautiful state Adelaide is. Nothing much has changed because it was beautiful then, has been maintained and is still beautiful now! Wouldn’t change Adelaide for the world…’cept maybe add a Dreamworld ;P

just goes to show how much adelaide HASN’T changed.

Looks like they could get progress back in 1966. Nothing much has changed really.

I absolutely loved this and i knew Bev harrell. She lived on Sturt Road across from Marion Shopping Centre.. This brings back so many fond memories for me too.. Thanks ever so much.. Loved it !!!

Wow I didn’t realise that Oz was so developed back in the 60s

Adelaide is amazing even back then!

Wow, very similar – only now its dirtier, full of fat ugly people that are unable to put on a tie and plenty of shady looking migrants that refuse to socialise with the grumpy white people. ugh…
