"Lights Out... and the Stars Appear" is a 1972 short film celebrating the 9.5mm home movie film size. Directed by Group 9.5, it features Michael Bentine and explores the history of this unique film gauge developed by Pathe-Freres.
This film is quite an artifact for collectors, marking a celebration of the 9.5mm format that has largely faded from mainstream attention. Finding a copy can be a bit of a challenge, as it was produced in a limited run for a specific niche audience. The charm lies in its historical significance rather than any blockbuster appeal, so it's often overlooked in broader discussions. However, for those who appreciate the subtleties of film history, this short is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of home movie making.
