The Devils Toy a 1966 Film
« on: August 03, 2017, 10:16:33 PM »
The Devils Toy.

Directed by Claude Jutra, produced by Marcel Martin

"It was frowned upon by the constabulary and disapproving adults, but the skateboard gave the youngsters who mastered its technique a thrilling sensation of speed unexcelled by any other pavement sport. Filmed in 1966 on Montr?al streets before the elongated roller skate was banned, this film captures the exuberance of boys and girls having the time of their lives in free-wheeling downhill locomotion."

There's an Austin vid of the same name, uses some footy from the original, by Calvin Millar. Dwight from the Walking Dead has a part.

on a related note the national film board of canada is an amazing resource for all types of films, going back as far as the 1940's they put a bunch of them on a YouTube channel and there is more on the NFB website, some really unique stuff

@Spicyboi, Really? I know Jesse but have never been there while somebody else was working. I wouldn't be surprised if we've crossed paths though!

Watching that original, it's basically the exact same movie as "Cherry".
