The British Pathe Story:
Before television, people came to movie theatres to watch the news.
British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect.
Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people. If it happened, British Pathé filmed it.
Now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in the world, British Pathé is a treasure trove of 85,000 films unrivalled in their historical and cultural significance.
British Pathé also represents the Reuters historical collection, which includes more than 136,000 items from the news agencies Gaumont Graphic (1910-1932), Empire News Bulletin (1926-1930), British Paramount (1931-1957), and Gaumont British (1934-1959), as well as Visnews content from 1957 to the end of 1984.

So there it was from the very beginning: the two sides of the Boomers. One side was youthful self-indulgence and creativity. And the other was the drive for career and money. As youth faded and the creativity was exhausted, what was left was the drive for career and money... and self-indulgence.
