“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams.
I love the Twilight Zone series and have watched each episode multiple times over the years. My 25 year old son, who wasn't used to black and white shows, also enjoys the series and appreciates the writing, acting and directing compared to some many inferior shows these days. One Step Beyond is a recent discovery and it is wonderfully entertaining and thoght provoking - a great find!
I watch these shows on my tablet set in the kitchen window behind the sink and watch as I wash dishes. And I am transported back to when I was a little girl on the floor in front of the TV wondering if it could be true. I was glad I was a Christian and could pray the prayer in the Scottish Prayer Book: from ghoulies and ghosties and long legged beasties. And things that go bump in the night Good Lord deliver us! A lot has happened since then. Now it just makes washing dishes a little less boring.

You put it so wonderful. Like a passage from the film Rebecca P.S. So glad to hear that little girl in front of the TV full of wonder is still inside you, never kill her off, hang on to her tightly
That transition from dance scene on the terrace above the lake to the next scene was stunning, such artful composition lighting and camerawork. Love the way the hanging tassle lingers and continues to dance and caress her body after she stops dancing and escapes down the stairs. And then long smooth continuity shot with her running in the background. Wish more contemporary film makers still understood this kind of visual poetry.
What an understanding wife...she must have been wondering why he was disappearing for most of the day.....on their vacation. My wife would have gone out of her mind and filed for divorce immediately.
I loved being reminded about when the starfish loses a part and it turns into another starfish. Looks like God did the first cloning! When I was in nurse’s training we learned if a toddler lost the tip of a finger it would grow back but the severed finger did not turn into another child, lol!
Yes that was the normal, I never smoked but as a child people all around me smoked In buildings, cars, elevators , hospitals, in churches in bars and your home regardless if you smoked...
breast cancer ,she had triple neg breast cancer the worst kind now your death sentence if you get it my good friend Christian passed away she on utube ,,look up Christian triple neg ..you will find her she dead .sad
Hmm. This episode brings up the idea that its possible that parents might pass more than their genes to their children. Like memories and feelings. Interesting concept. It was a nice short romance story, I feel like it could make for a good movie.
My father cracked up an airplane in the Army when he was 23. It smashed his face pretty good, and left him with a reoccurring itchiness at the tip of his nose. I have the same condition, an itchy tingle that comes and goes (hardly noticeable as minor physical miseries go), though I was born when he was 24. I didn't even know he had an itchy nose-tip like me until I was 19 or 20 myself. When I did try to put the two together to my father, he scoffed, even though he's very broad-minded, usually, even about the paranormal. He's right to insist that coincidence is a better explanation. (Or is he? Cuz I think he mighta been scoffing only in case anyone was listening, LOL.)
My mother had a very strong dislike to someone my father was (is?) friends with, but she never told any of us kids about it. The first time I met that friend, my brothers were crazy about the guy, and my mother and my sis weren't around. I was there, though, and I had the most incredible dislike, almost hate, towards that man, and I was only four or five years old! It's not the only time my mother seemed to share something like that with me, either.
I was surprised he mentioned DNA memory at the end. It does exist. For example, a person who receives the transplanted heart of a deceased person, also receives the likes, dislikes, and memories of that person.
As others have noted elsewhere in this thread, the thumbnail left me thnking that the actress was Teri Garr. Given the joy she's provided to so many of us over the years, it was impossible not to click the thumbnail. What a delight it nevertheless was to find another very impressive -- and beautiful -- actress instead. Let's all join in wishing Ms Garr well as she continues to cope with the physical challenges she's confronted in recent years. Thank you for posting this and thank you Ms. Garr, may you continue to experience the joy you provided to so many of us!
Im old enough to remember watching "One Step Beyond" as a boy - series was based on real events! NO special effects in early 50s - but very GOOD stories, cameos of later famous actors, like Charles Bronson. This was before Twilight Zone! Original "Outer Limits" also good!
You know it's bizzare, I was about 6 years old when I first saw this series. The one about wife dreaming about man trapped in elevator stuck with me for years. I never knew name of show until about 10 years ago.
Never realized that it was gentlemanly thing to light a lady's cigarette, even a stranger's, back then. (I was a child then.) Some of these old movies and shows I've been watching actually show a woman pull out a cigarette and wait expectantly for a man to light it for her.
Yes it was. And we opened doors for woman even car doors. And you would never dream of calling for a woman on a date looking like a bum. And they were always dressed like a lady. My daughter still recalls when a guy came for her wearing a strapped undershirt and I threw him out of the house.
Norma Crane (the main character), she was so beautiful, Unfortunate that she died so young, at 44, in 1973. This is one of my favorite OSB eisodes. Never get tired of watching it. The male actor was in another episode, where his wife and little boy get caught in a mind collapse and she comes to get him at his hotel room, to help the boy. Only thing is, she died in the mine !
they are actors - they do it, not the director - he can only 'emote' (sic) what he wants. how do actors do anything - anger, laughter, monotony, seriousness, comic qualities, any darn thing - how does an actor say rain 10 different ways and hold your attention? they're actors!!!!! (there are terrible "actors", too. you couldn't get them to cross their eyes well!) a good director elicits, let's the actor do what he/she does - act! it's up to cameraperson (in film and video) to capture the moments, the angles, and the lighting person to light the scene perfectly. The director is sort of like a conductor - they have their own special talent - Ingmar Bergman, Woody Allen, Forest Whittaker, Ida Lupino, John Ford, Sofia Coppola, Spike Lee, Eisenstein. . . Hitchcock, i believe, slapped an actress once - but that is unusual. (So did Dustin Hoffman - not as a director. that's the gossip anyway - i'd have to look it up.) of course, BTW, on stage you do not get a second take!
49jubilee yup - he was a terrific actor - did dramatic roles, too. i don’t know if you saw Jack Benny, but he had this look that set off peels of laughter. i’m glad you “get it” about acting, not a lot of people really do. :}
@@suzclayton783 Your narrow minded from watching a few movies. Do you actually think that all of america was wearing suits and hats. You must be a 1%, they could afford the things that you speak of. You are so off base you probably are a supporter of the dumpster.
@@tomhefner6344 no. I work on Pete's campaign. You dont have to be rich to understand that girls wore dresses and boys didnt wear jeans to church.Women dressed for work. We had to
@@tomhefner6344 Evidently you need to look at the history of dress. Women wore dresses for everything no matter how poor you were and even the poorest man had at least one suit. All men wore hats as well as women. I'm 67 and wasn't allowed to wear pants to school until my junior year in 1970. We wore pants for horse back riding but everything else I wore a dress or a skirt.
Ah the good old days when there was no boob jobs and botox and vanity driven face lifting. A woman bloomed and blossomed naturally just living a full life and sharing her true soulful beauty with the world and are still very respected and loved to this day. 👼🏼
A few years back I had the most amazing experience of my life. There is too much to put into a few lines here, but very long story short (I wrote a book on it, but never published it). At age 58 and having long given up on love and romance, I was approached by a woman 22 years my junior. Now I am short, balding, a bit overweight of average looks and no wealth to speak of. And this woman was very pretty and super fit - so my attraction was obvious, but hers to me was not. There was instant telepathy even though I do not believe in such. On our second date I saw her soul (not sure what that means) except to say that I saw the perfection, behind the imperfection. She was literally radiant. Instantly I loved this total stranger a thousand times more than I did any other human being. I would gladly have given my life for her. For the first time in my life I felt home, like I could finally breathe; a peace I had never known. There was no lust component involved. Merely holding hands with this woman was far more satisfying than the best love-making I ever had. When I left the next day (I was on vacation), I hurt like I was torn in two. I never experienced such extreme pain merely being separated from someone. Hate to leave you guys hanging, but I cannot rewrite the whole crazy encounter here.
I think once upon a time all humans could communicate telepathically , one can deduce the practice may have been seen as evil, the devils work , and furthermore discontinued in practice. Nowadays we still get glimpses , and when you Find someone on the sae wavelength ,.....
Thomas, you can't just start a story like this and end it so abruptly! Haha, please tell us a bit more of what happened afterwards. Upon reading, I wished someone would feel this way about me...
@@MN-re9oh I wish I could tell of a happy ending. Form many months I had dark bolts of energy racing through my body and cried literally deeply every day as if I briefly held heaven and it was torn away. I literally could not stop writing (I have never been compulsive about anything else.) I scared the hell out of her with my intensity. In one letter I wrote her, I said she was the sister/ daughter/wife I never had. She told me that she feared I was going to physically hurt her though we lived hundreds of miles away and I never said anything of that nature. I literally wanted to kill myself for making her afraid. It was the most awful feeling. I told her that if what I was about to say was wrong I would leaver her in peace forever, but that if I was right, that she agree to see me again. Now I knew nothing about her having spent a total of about 6 hours with her over two days - and in that time she only shared with me that she had a son and that was it. I said that if what I believed was true about her being the perfect feminine archetype for me, that the inverse must also be true; that I was the father/husband/brother she never had. I said that she was an only child with no brothers or sisters; that her father either died young or abandoned her and
that she had two primary relationships as an adult and both men were very physically and emotionally abusive. She replied that I was far off the mark and to leaver her the hell alone. A year later she admitted that I got it right.; that her father committed suicide when she was 10 and that one boyfriend put her in the hospital and that her husband was constantly belittling her. We got together again and it was amazing. She opened up more and became somewhat trusting. She even invited me into her apartment after years of envisioning me as a dangerous stalker. Some random teenagers walking by saw us talking together outside and this guy blurts out, "Jesus man! Just ask her to marry you already!" We still did not get physical, but when I was leaving she hugged me and would not let go. It was pure heaven. A month later she told me she wanted to come visit me in Las Vegas and spend several uninterrupted days together to get to know each other better. I was ecstatic, but at the last minute she cancelled and told me never to contact her again. Here it is almost 6 years later and she and I are both still single. It is such a waste IMO. I have never fully recovered from these brief encounters. Here is how much I love her: I would rather her see her happy with another man than to see her alone and missing out on such a critical part of the human experience.
@@MN-re9oh from your thumbnail, you look quite pretty. Love and take care of yourself and you may very well attract someone who will care deeply for you. All other life experiences pale compared to that.
@@nowvoyagerNE It did fall, I was watching to see if she took it with her. If she had, I wondered how he would explain it to his wife. He spent so much time with this strange woman I don't know why his wife didn't get mad at being left alone with their son so much. Just touched on it lightly.
I haven’t seen this program for so long it use to be one of my favorites. Also Twilight Zone and Alcoa Presents . Alfred Hitchcock was another one. Thanks for the download.
Look how nicely her dress fits her in the scene in front of the souvenir shop. That's pretty much how woman dressed back then. I know cause I was there.
Epigeneticism is not consciousness memory, despite the argument to the contrary. 'Does a tree really fall in the woods, if there is no one there to see it" ? Of course it does. This is merely more blood on the ground - the strange competition between the 'cave' and the 'penthouse'. I love it. The human animal has become arrogant. The fool really thinks that he can erase one memory - with the other. Wonderful play.
Our individuality is just an illusion. We are all connected, past, present, and future--all connected. I learned this when I had a near death experience decades ago.
Can't believe this is about cellular memory, a term used today and proven to be real, but just an idea back then. Super cool! Science, physics, and the paranormal are all subjects I study, and these shows are amazing for their time period.
Sorry biut it is not epigenetic memory, you dont understand that concept. Such weird things do happen but they are either by coincidence or even some process unknown. Memory is never encoded genetically.
Nice to hear another has also been keeping up to date with these kinds of developments. Jung was ahead on this in giving us the term "collective memory", which surely must tie in with epigenetics.
Well it appears they were aware of cells carrying memory of ancestors back then. Or was it always known along with other truths and little by little its been re introduced back into or minds...
I watched this because the woman in the thumbnail for this seemed to have a resemblance to Teri Garr. Of course I knew it couldn't be her, but I was intrigued by the resemblance. On further inspection I discovered little real similarity aside from hair color.
tenhirankei I also thought it was Teri Garr. She is in a YT video of Bobby Fuller "Let Her Dance", she is the second from left Go Go Dancer. Lovely lady.
I've heard of inheriting responsibility for the "sins of the father", but repeating the same sin, with the heirs of the same sinners, yeah that's taking collective guilt One Step Beyond. It oughta be against the Geneva Convention, I tell ya.
One Step Beyond was a very powerful series. I would judge it as equal to Twilight Zone. The theme song was BETTER. John Newland is even MORE dramatic than Rod Sterling.
Does anybody know what the name of the song playing throughout this episode with the violins? It sad and beautiful at the same time especially when she is dining alone bows her head with sadness
You have to admit Teri Garr is beautiful in every movie she's been in and you know it was Frankenstein that really showed her talents every scene she was in a nightgown
"The amazing drama you are about to see is a matter of human record. You may believe it, or not. But the real people who lived this story- *they* believe it. They KNOW. They took that.......'ONE STEP BEYOND'."
I watched both the zone and OSB when first aired , they were my favorite shows , my mother who was very Psychic also loved both . I have watched both shows numerous times . Some of the Zones I enjoyed better then OSB and vise versa . The zones had a better music score overall and higher production value , but the story is what made me love it or not . The OSB the sacred mushroom is at the top for me .
This episode was probably frowned upon due to the conservative families disapproval in the early 50s to late 60s...I wonder how bad people got shamed for having triangle love affairs.
These episodes can be full length flicks. These are better than Twilight Zone's.

I’m 53 and I just found it. I grew up in a country that had no tv, so I missed all the reruns of these awesome shows ☺️ I’m loving them
I agree. Totally enjoying watching these episodes 💚
I watch these shows on my tablet set in the kitchen window behind the sink and watch as I wash dishes. And I am transported back to when I was a little girl on the floor in front of the TV wondering if it could be true. I was glad I was a Christian and could pray the prayer in the Scottish Prayer Book: from ghoulies and ghosties and long legged beasties. And things that go bump in the night

That transition from dance scene on the terrace above the lake to the next scene was stunning, such artful composition lighting and camerawork. Love the way the hanging tassle lingers and continues to dance and caress her body after she stops dancing and escapes down the stairs. And then long smooth continuity shot with her running in the background. Wish more contemporary film makers still understood this kind of visual poetry.

Love these shows
My wife would’ve killed me and took the next train home
This episode always makes me want to hop on a train and head to a quiet beach resort. Psychic phenomena, optional.
be ware you don't end up .. one step beyond
What a beautiful story, full of mystery and suspense until the very end, no horror but a sense of wonder.
What an understanding wife...she must have been wondering why he was disappearing for most of the day.....on their vacation. My wife would have gone out of her mind and filed for divorce immediately.
...... I would’ve too!! Lol
😂😂🤣
😂😂😂😂
Understanding? 😂. I wonder how understanding a husband would be if his wife kept disappearing with some other man lol 😂
Back then marriage meant a lot more to the couple than it does now.
Finally, a good episode that feels positive instead of depressing. thanks for all of these :}

She replied that I was far off the mark and to leaver her the hell alone. A year later she admitted that I got it right.; that her father committed suicide when she was 10 and that one boyfriend put her in the hospital and that her husband was constantly belittling her.
We got together again and it was amazing. She opened up more and became somewhat trusting. She even invited me into her apartment after years of envisioning me as a dangerous stalker. Some random teenagers walking by saw us talking together outside and this guy blurts out, "Jesus man! Just ask her to marry you already!"
We still did not get physical, but when I was leaving she hugged me and would not let go. It was pure heaven.
A month later she told me she wanted to come visit me in Las Vegas and spend several uninterrupted days together to get to know each other better. I was ecstatic, but at the last minute she cancelled and told me never to contact her again.
Here it is almost 6 years later and she and I are both still single. It is such a waste IMO. I have never fully recovered from these brief encounters.
Here is how much I love her: I would rather her see her happy with another man than to see her alone and missing out on such a critical part of the human experience.
@@MN-re9oh from your thumbnail, you look quite pretty. Love and take care of yourself and you may very well attract someone who will care deeply for you. All other life experiences pale compared to that.
This seemed to be a popular show with a long run on TV. Television was peaking back then!
Such a lovely story.
Norma Crane was a great actress!
She played Yevyes wife in Fiddler on the Roof movie, 1971
@@jaimiesalid3141 Oh that is Golde! :)
She ran away with his coat.. ta da he appears wearing it at the gift shop. Love to find this kind of items in a film. great actors!!
i believe it fell from her shoulders as she ran. no biggie.
@@nowvoyagerNE It did fall, I was watching to see if she took it with her. If she had, I wondered how he would explain it to his wife. He spent so much time with this strange woman I don't know why his wife didn't get mad at being left alone with their son so much. Just touched on it lightly.
No she let it fall of her shoulders when she ran
Wow this one was good! Really makes one think!
I was born in Evanston! Carmen's has the best stuffed spinach pizza ever!
I would alternate with Giordano's :) See you at Fountain Square!
Lived on Isabella. Ate there often as possible.
I haven’t seen this program for so long it use to be one of my favorites. Also Twilight Zone and Alcoa Presents . Alfred Hitchcock was another one. Thanks for the download.
Thank you for sharing 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕💕💕
That was a good episode kept you thinking thanks for sharing it 👍🇺🇸
the lady in this episod was a classy beauty, jus beautiful. john newland in his older years was still handsome.
Look how nicely her dress fits her in the scene in front of the souvenir shop. That's pretty much how woman dressed back then. I know cause I was there.
Epigeneticism is not consciousness memory,
despite the argument to the contrary.
'Does a tree really fall in the woods, if there is no one there to see it" ? Of course it does. This is merely more blood on the ground -
the strange competition between the 'cave' and the 'penthouse'. I love it.
The human animal has become arrogant. The fool really thinks that he can erase one memory - with the other.
Wonderful play.
I so thank you for sharing!
Norma Crane.... what a great actress and an absolutely beautiful woman.
She was taken too soon.
One Step Beyond is still the best....to me...
Our individuality is just an illusion. We are all connected, past, present, and future--all connected. I learned this when I had a near death experience decades ago.
It's Golda from Fiddler on the Roof!
How many others watching with enjoyment in September 2019.
Thank You For these uploads 😎😎😎

One of my favorite OSB episodes!
Wonderful story. 🥰
...Refreshing to see women dressed like ladies.
What days those were, where you can leave a door wide open like that.
@@eddysgaming9868 Owweee hahaha that killed me😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂
I still leave my door wide open in the summer.
john newland was a good looking man. and the women were beautiful and gorgeous. great actreses, and actors.
That was a beautiful story!
I was confused about this one till she started explaining to the girl and the guy
If I could nail that look she had down...oh boy would I get in trouble lol
Rosemary Williams 😂🤣😅
Its easy...
We just dont do it like this...
Youd look a little crazy... 😜
@@dianeferre1273 try looking autistic and deaf at same time.
Can't believe this is about cellular memory, a term used today and proven to be real, but just an idea back then. Super cool! Science, physics, and the paranormal are all subjects I study, and these shows are amazing for their time period.
Really loVe 💕 these episodes 😀
I miss the ocean going back to the east coast. And these old series are absolutely g the Rome were natural beauties .
Norma Crane was a wonderful actress. So talented and beautiful. ❤️❤️🙏🙏
This is called Epigenetic memory.
Yes in animals they call it instinct.
Naomi you are right it works by how you think go with the first thing you think when you have a hunch you'd be amazed
Sorry biut it is not epigenetic memory, you dont understand that concept. Such weird things do happen but they are either by coincidence or even some process unknown. Memory is never encoded genetically.
epigenetic memory now a science fact.
Nice to hear another has also been keeping up to date with these kinds of developments. Jung was ahead on this in giving us the term "collective memory", which surely must tie in with epigenetics.
If my starfish had epigenetic memory, I wouldn't have to wear diapers.
Good one. Thank you
ACTOR JOHN NEWLAND WONDERFUL ACTOR, HAVE SEEN HIM ON SOME WESTERNS, SUCH A GREAT ACTOR ❤❤❤
good one.
When people were more understanding . Wives didnt act like they owned their husbands. At least till it was needed.
because they couldn't get out of the marriaged for financial reason so they shut up!and he abuse them.
@@Beatriz-lj2td They always had the option to destroy their ex's, but the culture didn't push then to do so, back then.
Delusional perspective about the past...smh
very good ending
WOW!....WOW!...WOW!...😊🌹 A great story
I wanted joy and happiness, sorry this pain and sorrow.
Oh 😂 we DEF carry other peoples memories alright , from generation to generation until we make a choice to break that genetic spell . Great story
At the end Norman says “I’m free”. What was not told in this episode is that when he went home he found all his belongings on the front lawn.😂
Thanks for the great video
this worlds a funny charming place
I think I speak for many if not most American men. I wish women looked like this again.
Love seaside beach here in Ca.
My favorite one so far !❤
Well it appears they were aware of cells carrying memory of ancestors back then. Or was it always known along with other truths and little by little its been re introduced back into or minds...
the weird part of this story is they based this plot around the true events and added little bit of an spice on top of it.
This reminds me of something that happened back on march 19th, 1998...tmd
19:00 l guess that was the good old days when a women could just leave her front door wide open for Men to just walk in!
When she put the Shell to her Ear it told her...This is too weird to be True! 😂
I was soooo hoping she was his sister, don't think bad of me, it worked in Star Wars didn't it?
Qusin111 Me too! I was positive the mom would say they're siblings.
I think bad of you
I watched this because the woman in the thumbnail for this seemed to have a resemblance to Teri Garr. Of course I knew it couldn't be her, but I was intrigued by the resemblance. On further inspection I discovered little real similarity aside from hair color.
tenhirankei I also thought it was Teri Garr. She is in a YT video of Bobby Fuller "Let Her Dance", she is the second from left Go Go Dancer. Lovely lady.
Omg I thought the exact same thing!
How cruel
I've heard of inheriting responsibility for the "sins of the father", but repeating the same sin, with the heirs of the same sinners, yeah that's taking collective guilt One Step Beyond.
It oughta be against the Geneva Convention, I tell ya.
Doogar Harz,-I don't agree with you but some episodes are just as good.T. Zone is the best I've ever seen!
I adore her white outfit. It is yummy! ♥️♥️♥️I know Newton, just outside Boston in Massachusetts... I would love to visit Seaside⛱️
Yes, the stylists for this show - marvelous outfits and makeup. Her nails were perfect. That Seaside looked like the town Seaside Oregon.
@@geezermann7865 😊
@@paulhunter1525 yes!
@@geezermann7865it's 2 years later and I re-watched this. I still love her outfits!
One Step Beyond was a very powerful series. I would judge it as equal to Twilight Zone. The theme song was BETTER. John Newland is even MORE dramatic than Rod Sterling.
Does anybody know what the name of the song playing throughout this episode with the violins? It sad and beautiful at the same time especially when she is dining alone bows her head with sadness
You have to admit Teri Garr is beautiful in every movie she's been in and you know it was Frankenstein that really showed her talents every scene she was in a nightgown
This is not Terri Garr. Its Norma Crane
Too bad but this ain’t her
"The amazing drama you are about to see is a matter of human record. You may believe it, or not. But the real people who lived this story- *they* believe it. They KNOW. They took that.......'ONE STEP BEYOND'."
Axiomist,-The episode you're talking about is 'Epilog'.It is a good episode.
Wonerful!!
What is a "woner"?
Did nobody notice she's walking in an unfamiliar town with no purse or clutch?!
0:08- This was part of the original "ALCOA PRESENTS" introduction.
I watched both the zone and OSB when first aired , they were my favorite shows , my mother who was very Psychic also loved both . I have watched both shows numerous times . Some of the Zones I enjoyed better then OSB and vise versa . The zones had a better music score overall and higher production value , but the story is what made me love it or not . The OSB the sacred mushroom is at the top for me .
This episode was probably frowned upon due to the conservative families disapproval in the early 50s to late 60s...I wonder how bad people got shamed for having triangle love affairs.
The lady in the middle....8:14 is how I feel as a 3rd wheel...and this is how adulteries start.
The music begins playing when they look at one another they may have love one another that one time somewhere time time
This episode legacy of love unless end with a happy ending
Thank-you Pizzaflix*
When I saw Norman the second time, I called him John. Coincidence or maybe something else?
