Shot on 8mm film in 1975, this vintage home movie captures a wooden roller coaster at an amusement park in Washington DC. The footage begins with a low-angle view looking up at the intricate lattice structure of the coaster's towering support, then pans down to reveal a crowd of people walking along a path beneath the ride. Trees frame the scene, and the grainy black-and-white image evokes a nostalgic, archival feel. The handheld camera movement adds to the authentic, personal quality of this classic 1970s home movie.
