| Description: | Master 60 Part 1 Same as catalog # 38509 Beatnik wedding. Two beatnik couples marry in London. Opens with shot of Freight Train Coffee Bar on corner in Soho. CUs of beatniks standing outside talking--though they are not particuarly conspicuous. Cut to shots of a formal wedding suit and dress in storefront window. Then to wedding party of seven posing for photos on walk outside church. Standard stuff, look like anybody. Shots follow of brides taking off bridal dresses on same walk, revealing more "hip" attire. The two couples head for the two scooters waiting for them at the curb. They board the scooters and head off down the street waving goodbye. One bike has a "Just Married" sign stuck on the back. Wedding, Bride, Groom, Beatniks, Scooters, Coffeehouse, Corner. Wacky. | |
