WLS Channel 7 - "The Original 3:30 (4:30) Movie Opening!" (1969-1973?)

Views: 7299

Ok, I couldn't resist doing a little "photoshop job" on the 4:30 Movie logo to make it look like 3:30. ;-) But this is still a significant find - the original opening to the ABC 4:30 Movie in New York (which apparently was exactly the same as the WLS 3:30 Movie here in Chicago, except with the title changed)

My thanks to YouTuber mazinz2 (Doug) for discovering this, and for generously donating a copy of the ...

WTTW Channel 11 - Movie Eleven - "Metropolis" (Opening Excerpt, 1977?)

Views: 2838

Here is a very quick excerpt of the opening for Movie Eleven on WTTW Channel 11 for a showing of "Metropolis". You can hear a snippet of the music and make out some kind of film reel in the background.

I believe this aired on local Chicago TV in 1977 or early 1978.
