Shot on 8mm film in 1957, this vintage home movie captures a hazy, sun-drenched scene at a poolside resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. The iconic Gateway Arch dominates the background, partially obscured by atmospheric haze and film grain. Swimmers in classic 1950s bathing suits lounge under umbrellas and wade in the water, while a large building structure looms behind the arch. The footage exhibits natural 8mm film characteristics—slight blurriness, color fading, and surface scratches—creating a nostalgic, authentic slice of mid-century American leisure. This archival clip offers a rare glimpse into 1950s poolside culture and the era's fascination with modernist architecture.
