Leopold Godowsky's home movies (all silent)

Leopold Godowsky Jr. (Leo) filmed several home movies of his father. Since he and Leopold Mannes created Kodachrome, the first practical color transparency film, several of Godowsky Jr's home movies were prototype color efforts. Among the highlights of the films gathered together here: 0:00- Godowsky with his wife Frieda, daughter Vanita, and son Leo 2:44- signing for a telegram (it must have been an important day with many letters to read and family gathered and camera filming; a birthday perhaps?) 5:42- preparing to go to the airport with Frieda and Vanita 6:05- indicating he'd be riding in the rumble seat to the airport 6:15- climbing into the rumble seat, followed by Vanita 7:45- with Carl Friedberg (left) and Ossip Gabrilowitsch (center), possibly on the balcony of Godowsky's apartment at the Ansonia Hotel - this footage was filmed by conductor Arthur Rodzinski 8:15- Clara Clemens Gabrilowitsch joins (wearing the hat with the white ribbon) 8:28- on the corner of 73rd Street and Broadway (across the street from the Ansonia Hotel, where, in the early 1930s, Godowsky's Manhattan apartment was located) 9:15- with the pianist David Saperton (his son in law) on the corner of 57th Street and 7th Avenue in Manhattan 9:38- joined by his grandson David Saperton Jr. (nicknamed "Bloblo"), whose mother was Godowsky's daughter Vanita (of whom Godowsky wrote, "... he is wild and badly brought up ...") 10:28- with his son Leo (presumably filmed by David Saperton) 12:10- color footage at the piano (probably at the apartment on Riverside Drive in Manhattan that Godowsky shared with daughter Dagmar, and subsequently with his friends Maurice and Vera Aronson following the death of his wife Frieda)
