British Pathé releases 85,000 films on YouTube | The British Pathé Archive Blog

Newsreel archive British Pathé has uploaded its entire collection of 85,000 historic films, in high resolution, to its YouTube channel. This unprecedented release of vintage news reports and cinemagazines is part of a drive to make the archive more accessible to viewers all over the world.

“Our hope is that everyone, everywhere who has a computer will see these films and enjoy them,” says Alastair White, General Manager of British Pathé. “This archive is a treasure trove unrivalled in historical and cultural significance that should never be forgotten. Uploading the films to YouTube seemed like the best way to make sure of that.”

British Pathé was once a dominant feature of the British cinema experience, renowned for first-class reporting and an informative yet uniquely entertaining style. It is now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in existence. Spanning the years from 1896 to 1976, the collection includes footage – not only from Britain, but from around the globe – ofmajor events, famous faces, fashion trends, travel, sport and culture. The archive is particularly strong in its coverage of the First and Second World Wars.

Alastair White continues: “Whether you’re looking for coverage of the Royal Family, the Titanic, the destruction of the Hindenburg, or quirky stories about British pastimes, it’ll be there on our channel. You can lose yourself for hours.”

Quite a bit of that type of stuff has been the main content for the ShortsHD channel in the US for the last few years.

actually searching for it has been a fucking pain tho

w/ that said, pathé itself has a very good cataloguing/enquiry system that lets you find p much exactly what you want w/ a bit of smart searching, so releasing all this footage on jewtube is great and all but don't mean shit to me unless they've removed the paywall on the actual pathé site

altho w/ that said its hardly like I'll ever actually need to use it ever again
