What Makes A Good Party? by Coronet Instructional Films Shows teenagers how to plan and attend a party, suggesting games to play and songs to sing ("Jimmy Crack Corn"). #Coronet
When people cared about their appearance, and aspired to be the best person possible. Now people don't care what they look like or care about what people think.
Letty Guerra Get off it lol. We put far more emphasis on appearances now thanks to social media. It's probably a good thing that we're not as into conformity and can actually do what we please now.
This is just a educational vid and not actual reality. The average male in school wouldn't wear a suit to a party. But they were worn going to a religious service, to a nice restaurant, concert and by men working in offices etc. The only men that wore suits to school were ivy league types and those fairly off.
D N Thanks for sharing! Fashion is so interesting to me (even though I’m kind of a thoughtless dresser)... but I like to learn about culture and how it really was back then!
In the 2000s, I visited my brother in North Carolina when my 17 year old niece was hosting a party. She had bought a Slip-and-Slide and had a tent with a long table and chairs where kids could make their own balloon animals. Later on in the evening the kids gathered in the living room to listen to one of the guests play the piano. Not only would my niece's friends come up and talk with me on their own initiative but they invited me to make my own balloon animals with them. I was dumbfounded that such a party occurred anywhere in the US but am glad that my niece and nephew could have such experiences. BTW, there was no alcohol.
@@missanne2908 I remember, in the 1950's, teenage girls, were REAL girls, and teenage boys, were REAL boys and there was no MENTAL illness, or FAKE genders, and all kids, knew, what public bathroom, to use.
I have been at parties from age 14 and we allways had so much fun. Obviously we got a bit drunk too, but it was usually on a delightfull way. Only sometimes one of our friends got wasted and I remember how embarassed we started to feel for that person. I remember every single one of my parties, and when we discussed about them years later, my friends felt the same way, they were highly valued memories of our teen years. When I got to highschool I was soo shocked when I heard from all of my classmates their "weekend party" or "greatest party of my life" stories, which were all the same: "I don't know where I was, I don't know what I did, but I slept all night in my own vomit yeaaaahhh".. Every single time the same story: "Hell yeaaah, I drank soo much I vomited everywhere and I fell asleep". No memories, no difference between these occassions, no dancing, no having fun, just drink quickly untill you are wasted and a burden on other people. Once one of them got so intoxicated that the police and his family searched for him for an entire day, when he finally arrived home on his own feet. Turned out he was sleeping in the middle of a random cornfield. It happemed in those times, when many teenagers disappeared from our region and later found with an empty abdomen in a forest. Just think about how everybody who searched for him that day felt like. The teachers in our school and every student found it soo funny.

Mick Philpott Sounds like you've been to some wild parties, Philpott. I'm gay, and I'm not jealous of YOU. I've never experienced nor seen any of that madness which you seem to have, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I'll bet your browser history would raise some eyebrows.
In the early 1980s I was in high school. One day while sitting in class, out of the blue, for reasons i cant recall, the school 16mm movie projector was rolled into the classroom. And they played for us several of these old, antiquated late 1940s-1950s coronet instructional films on how to date, how to be polite, how to behave, etc. My classmates laughed through them. The wooden acting, the cheap production values, the over politeness, the squeaky clean activities (a picnic, a carnival, bike riding, a day at the park, dinner at home with the family, etc), the innocent slang of the time (gee, golly, swell, keen, etc). I on the other hand, wasn't laughing. To the contrary. As someone who was being raised in a severely abusive, dysfunctional home, i found these films to be quite charming. A sort of a time capsule of a more innocent era. DON'T get me wrong. I had no illusions. I was well aware that the 1950s wasnt so perfect and innocent. No decade is. But still, even with the flaws of that decade, it seems to me that there were SOME things in the 1950s they were doing so right that we were doing so horribly wrong in the early 1980s as well as today.
I get what you’re saying, and overall, I agree. However, humans don’t really change over time. Definitely not in a span of three decades. These videos are not an honest portrayal of how the 50s actually we’re, and I’m sure kids back then laughed at them too, as they weren’t actually like this. People are more or less the same across time, except I’d argue that we have become more civil. Even in the 1950s, In certain parts of the country, people who look like me were being lynched by people who looked like the people in this video. Women had few rights, neither did children. A teen or preteen boy could be charged with a crime if he were molested by an older man and told the authorities. This is because sodomy laws of the time made no distinction between a victim of abuse and an abuser, even for a child (most often, these children got probation, but they were still criminally charged. If you don’t believe me, reference the “homosexuality PSA” video that was made around this time. It was really a video about pedophiles, but in those days, there was little distinction). Values have absolutely changed for the better in terms of what matters, and I stand by that wholeheartedly.
One episode of _60 Minutes_ in the 1990s featured a museum in NYC dedicated to instruction films such as these. They showed these films to a group of teenagers thinking that they would laugh at their corniness. Instead the teenagers were pretty wistful about them.
Have you noticed teenagers back then looked older and more mature than the ones today. I was looking through an old yearbook from the 60s and the seniors looked like they were in there late 20s
Yes they sure did. No hormones in milk back then. And Joe: LESS sun exposure. The skies in those days were smoked over everyday except on Sunday (unless you lived in Kansas).
I remember having a party when i turned 13 yo. Mother helped me plan it.i invited my entire class (I'm from a very small town).we had hot dogs, chips, cold drinks and cake.i had a record player and we made up dances to different songs. It was a fun time
"Let's have an informal party!! And by informal, I mean let's plan everything out beforehand, have a ton of games to make sure people don't get distracted, and everyone will be dressed very very very nicely. It'll be fun! And easy!"
Please. Nowadays it's practically a scandal if a man makes eye with a woman without a written consent contract. The sexual revolution has come full circle.
Bon Bon we used to play twister with Missoula oil in the 80s now that was fun three or four couples there Naked on the floor squirming around with each other it was great talk about a mixer
Well, to answer your question (What Makes A Good Party?), it all depends on the guests that you've invited. You've got to know and understand them enough in order to be able to give them what they want. Also, you have to know yourself. You're just as much a part of the party as they are. You've got to try and set the party up in a way that everybody will win including yourself. That's what makes a good party in my opinion; you've got to know, understand, and be able to cater to yourself and to your invited guests.
It’s amazing the amount of human interaction that occurred in the days before smartphones: ‘Let’s text everyone about the party!’ Heck no! We will call them on the telephone! How novel. How innocent. To me, this is how I now think of the 1990s!
The way they talk sounds so different back then! The folks that I have come across over the years who were in their eighties or so, usually retained that old way of sounding. Imagine high schoolers now singing "Jimmy Crack Corn And I Don't Care"-lmfao!
Laugh all you want. In school we sang songs like this and we were serious. We had to stand and recite the preamble and pledge allengence to the flag. We did it as natural as breathing. We were taught to honor and respect God and country. I am glad I was in this era.

Why am I in my late 20's, and this looks great and fun as hell compared to recent parties over the past couple years that i've been too? The suits. the hair... Fuck, i don't think i even have a single friend that plays piano...
@@steveb9151and by "standing up to it" you decide that everything we did was beneath you and the 50s were so much better. For most, decency brings out decency, civility brings out civility. If everyone you meet is rude, then it's a you problem. Even your comment reeks of a condescending attitude
Alot of people dont realize this is actually the shortened edited footage... just a few minutes after this clip ended everyone started twerking and pop-locking
When I moved to Cleveland three years ago it was partly because my neighborhood resembled the location of several Coronet Educational Films I'd remembered from school in the 60's. Tell me I've done the wrong thing.
Damned good thing that they didn't invite me, I'd of brought the MD20/20 red. How else can we find out why they all agreed that Marjorie was so much fun with the guys...
@@4x4pup51 I'm a millennial parent, and it has little to do with how old a parent is. There are many in other age demographs who would also qualify as "self-centered brats".
Hmm, Steve plays one song and everyone notices it's time to go home. Maybe now Steve can hook up with the gal he was chatting with earlier in the evening, before being dragged back into the fun and games.
To have an incredible party they just need to share whatever pills they took before they started PLANNING the party. Man, these girls at their sleepover are flying!
I love playing charades but no one I know does. We used to play it when I was younger. What were the rules of rhythm at 7:22? I haven’t played that. I wasn’t sure why one person was out or what the rules are.
I only figured it out because someone else commented that they call it Zoomie. First, everyone must sit in a circle. Then, you number off everyone starting with zoomie (zoomie, 1, 2, 3…) until everyone has a number. The person who is Zoomie should know how to play the game. Zoomie starts the game by patting his legs twice and then clapping his hand twice saying,”zoomie, zoomie, zoomie, zoomie.” Everyone joins in with Zoomie by patting their legs and clapping their hands. This pattern must be kept through the whole game. Then Zoomie says zoomie, zoomie, and a number(i.e. zoomie, zoomie, 1, 1) Then the person with that number must say his number twice and then someone else’s number (ex. one, one, three, three) It is alright to call zoomie as a number, but the person who is Zoomie can speed up the game. The pattern continues like this until someone messes up by forgetting to go or by not following the rhythm. Then that person is out. Zoomie then starts the game up again. Also if anyone calls the number of someone who is out then they are out. The game continues until only one is left.
* I remember a 1960's TV commercial for a device that turned any resonant plywood surface into a great hi-fi speaker. A teen guy said "I got one and the gang thinks it's super!" NOW that may indeed be a party plus ~> Good tunes on a huge speaker. ☺
Casual, informal party... suits and ties are a must! The 50s!

Man, a party centered around having fun together instead of getting wasted. As a teetotaller, I'd sure love to see this become the norm again.

Jimmy cracked corn & I don't care. lol Haven't heard that in 60 years.
Hmm, Steve plays one song and everyone notices it's time to go home. Maybe now Steve can hook up with the gal he was chatting with earlier in the evening, before being dragged back into the fun and games.
that panda like creature looks creepy
I was waiting for the girls to break into "Look At Me I'm Sandra Dee".
the bed the three girls are jumping on seems like an air mattress
Hot chocolate and sandwiches is bubble guts guaranteed
I suggest cabbage and la croix instead

Aaaand How!
I know why we're all here. Actually, the 1st part of that video gives us some fascinating insight
I think the guy carnival sounds like a good time!
The party looks like a meeting to me
Yeah, a Klan meeting. "Jimmy Crack Corn?"
To have an incredible party they just need to share whatever pills they took before they started PLANNING the party. Man, these girls at their sleepover are flying!
I used to have sleep over at my home and there homes.boy did we have fun.
Steve has untapped depths!

A smidge too much fun for me
I couldn't handle all the excitement.
FUN WITH JELLO SALAD 101!
These parties in the 50s sure seem different than those represented on the show Euphoria.
a party isnt a party without some Crack
monstersince or weed

Agreed. I tried telling that to somebody else in the comments section but they weren't feeling it.
we have the makings of a good party.
instead of invitationsns everyone follows us back from the pub club bar
entertaining
I love playing charades but no one I know does. We used to play it when I was younger.
What were the rules of rhythm at 7:22? I haven’t played that. I wasn’t sure why one person was out or what the rules are.
I only figured it out because someone else commented that they call it Zoomie.
First, everyone must sit in a circle. Then, you number off everyone starting with zoomie (zoomie, 1, 2, 3…) until everyone has a number. The person who is Zoomie should know how to play the game. Zoomie starts the game by patting his legs twice and then clapping his hand twice saying,”zoomie, zoomie, zoomie, zoomie.” Everyone joins in with Zoomie by patting their legs and clapping their hands. This pattern must be kept through the whole game.
Then Zoomie says zoomie, zoomie, and a number(i.e. zoomie, zoomie, 1, 1) Then the person with that number must say his number twice and then someone else’s number (ex. one, one, three, three) It is alright to call zoomie as a number, but the person who is Zoomie can speed up the game.
The pattern continues like this until someone messes up by forgetting to go or by not following the rhythm. Then that person is out. Zoomie then starts the game up again.
Also if anyone calls the number of someone who is out then they are out.
The game continues until only one is left.
My party days we're the late 70's & 80's, if you know what I mean.
Margie's a goer.
btw steve is 91 now....
What a better time.
“Plan that party around a purpose.”
Purpose: strippers need to eat
I've been to worst parties that would make "the big chill" look like a renaissance festival
I just love how they enjoy Jimmy crack corn, the "Master is on his way"
waiting on the jokes to start flowing in. So far there's only boomers
* I remember a 1960's TV commercial for a device that turned any resonant plywood surface into a great hi-fi speaker. A teen guy said "I got one and the gang thinks it's super!" NOW that may indeed be a party plus ~> Good tunes on a huge speaker. ☺
@2manynegativewaves then don't watch. Millennials and X'ers are the reason our world is going to the dogs!
Glad I missed that party
Poor couple trying to sneak off then forced into a hat making nightmare
Gee golly wad stoppers such fun and that guy can sing bass just like a slave.
