Project 20 - September 13, 1954 - May 27, 1970

A series of 34 broadcast documentary SPECIALS.

This chronicle of the impact of the atomic age on humanity was produced by Henry Salomon's documentary unit, with the technical assistance of the Atomic Energy Commission and high-placed government officials. Although aired before the Project 20 title was conceived, the program is considered the first of the Project 20 reports. Much of the broadcast consists of newsreel footage, but for certain important events, no cameras were present and reenactments were specially filmed with the participation of the actual figures involved. The subject was broken into five separate parts: ""The Bomb Explodes," a look at the 7-16-45 Hiroshima explosion; "The Atom's History," a report on the development of atom research and testing; "The Atom; A Political Force," an examination of US security policy, Soviet atomic development, and the Rosenberg trials; "The Future," a look at the future of nuclear power; and "Epilogue," a prayer written and read by Stephen Vincent Benet.

Written by Richard Hanser who would write 21 PROJECT 20  programs in the series. Music by Robert Russell Bennett who would compose the music of 22 PROJECT 20 programs in the series.

NOTE: At the conclusion of this broadcast Host Robert Montgomery and guest Sid Caesar appear, LIVE, and discuss the program just aired. Caesar also promotes his new series CEASAR'S HOUR which begins two weeks from tonight.

Soon after VICTORY AT SEA concluded production, supervising producer Henry Solomon asked for and was granted permission by NBC to keep his production unit intact for the purpose of creating new programs that would follow in the tradition of that popular and critically acclaimed groundbreaking series. In 1954, Solmon, along the Donald B. Hyatt, Isaac Kleinerman, Richard Hanser, and Robert Russell Bennett, began production on a group of compilation documentaries they christened PROJECT 20. Using a name derived from that of the 20th century, Solomon and company periodically recreated some significant lives, events, periods, and trends of the 1900's through an effective marriage of archival news film and still photos enhanced with narration provided by Alexzander Scourby who contributed to eleven productions. After Salomon's death in 1957, Donald B. Hyatt took over as head of the PROJECT 20 team, serving as producer and director for all subsequent programs. Hyatt quickly moved away from the strictly twentieth-century nature of series offering programs on the American West, THE REAL WEST, narrated by Gary Cooper, HE IS RISEN, the Life and Times of Jesus Christ, END OF THE TRAIL, narrated by Walter Brennan, a portrait of George Washington, MEET GEORGE WASHINTON, narrated by Melvyn Douglas, and others.

As time passed, PROJCET 20 became universally recognized as one of American television's most enduring and honored series, winning hundreds of national and international awards for broadcasts that were aired time and again over the years.

1954

This episode: "Antarctic Expedition." 
#11135: SCIENCE SERIES: "HEMO THE MAGNIFICENT"
1957-03-20, CBS, 60 min.
Frank Capra , Richard Carlson , Dr. Frank Baxter

Hemo comes from the Greek word for blood and tonight's one-hour film is about our blood, how it circulates and what its functions are. One way of showing these things will be through the use of animated cartoons and cartoon characters such as Hemo himself, Professor Anatomy and the pacemaker. There will also be special medical films, and the whole show will be tied together through the appearance of Dr. Research and The Fiction Writer, as they try to visualize our circulatory system. 
The show will open with a Chronicle of  man's knowledge about blood. Then animated sequences will show the heart pumping blood, the lungs slipping oxygen into it and other organs in the system functioning. The intricate system of tubes, arteries, capillaries, and veins, that conduct the blood on its errands, is geographically presented. A theory is offered to account for the presence of blood in man, and microscopic film shots show the capillaries in action. We see what happens to the blood in a knockout and in a state of shock.
Dr. Research is played by Dr. Frank Baxter, who performed the same role in "Our Mr. Sun." Actor Richard Carlson plays The Fiction Writer. Written and directed by Frank Capra. Educational film from Bell Laboratories.

  SELECTIONS FROM ORIGINAL GRAY AUDOGRAPH DISC RECORDINGS, RECORDED OFF THE AIR, REPRESENTING SEVEN CONSECUTIVE DAYS OF KNXT LOS, ANGELES BROADCASTING, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 THRU 7, 1957.

These LOST CBS broadcasts represent an unprecedented one complete week, sign on to sign off, September 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1957 (130 hours on 130 8 & 1/2" diameter discs with a capacity to record 32 minutes per side (side one and side two had the potential capacity to record 64 minutes).

These discs were obtained in Los Angeles by Phil Gries, creator and owner of Archival Television Audio, Inc. in 2011. They were originally found in an establishment, located in Burbank, California, selling old records dispersing its inventory as they went out of business, a few years before.

The rarity of this type of media to record television is not known to have occured beyond a few incidents, as stated below, at any other time, which make this collection of TV Audio Airchecks, recorded on Gray Audograph discs, an amazing surviving artifact.

The sound quality varies with different broadcasts. After a period of almost three years, processing and digitizing these 130 two sided discs, there is recognition of the rarity of some of these broadcasts providing one of a kind surviving Television Audio Airchecks and are extremely desirable regardless of some of the extraneous sound artifacts heard on some of these tracks which were painstakingly processed and transferred one by one to optimize the sound quality and proper pitch.

GRAY AUDIOGRAPH (1946 - 1976)

History:

The Gray Audograph was a dictation disc recording format introduced in 1946 by the Gray Manufacturing Company in the United States. It recorded sound by pressing grooves into soft vinyl discs, like the competing, but incompatible, SoundScriber and VoiceWriter formats.

Audiograph discs were blue thin plastic flexible discs, recorded from the inside to the outside, the opposite of conventional phonograph discs. Another difference compared to phonograph discs (78, 45, 33 & 1/2) was that the audiograph was driven by a surface-mounted wheel, meaning that its recording and playback speed decreased toward the edge of the disc (like the Compact Disc and other digital formats), to keep a more constant linear velocity and to improve playing time.

The mandatory speed variation correction requires playback on an Audograph player, which ATA possesses and has modified, allowing line out output connections, direct line, to the input of any other recording format device.

Gray Audograph discs were available in three different sizes. The 6-inch diameter disc offered 10 minutes of recording time per side, the 6 & 1/2" disc offered 15 minutes per side. The
8 & 1/2" disc, which is extant in the ATA archive, offered 30 minutes of recording per side.

ALONG WITH THE DICTABELT RECORDER, A GRAY AUDOGRAPH RECORDER MACHINE CAPTURED THE ACTUAL LIVE SOUNDS RECORDED OF GUN SHOTS AT THE TIME OF THE JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION. THESE AUDIO SOUNDS WERE USED IN THE REVIEW BY THE UNITED STATES HOUSE SELECT COMMITTEE ON ASSASSINATIONS.

THE GRAY COMPANY CEASED MANUFACTURE OF THE GRAY AUDOGRAPH RECORDER IN 1976.

#13458: REMEMBER US
1960-07-18, WNEW, 53 min.
Adolf Hitler, Steven Spielberg, Phil Gries, Quentin Reynolds, Dr. Gisela Perl, Sonia Weissman, Janus T., Alain Resnais, Leo Weissman


A one-hour special report. Jewish survivors of Nazi atrocities and concentration camp horrors relate their past experiences.

Quentin Reynolds is the host and narrator.  

"Nothing will remain of the Jewish question but a cemetery," predicted a Nazi official when Hitler's program to eliminate the Jews began in earnest in 1938. Many hundreds of cemeteries were filled before Allied victory halted the Nazi machine in 1945. " REMEMBER US" tells the story of the millions of European Jews who died in prison camps and ghettos during this period, and of those who survived.

Past footage from Documentary films and the accounts of survivors are used to piece together a scenario of life and death as Typhus and starvation stalked the prisoners in the concentration camps, including Dachau, Breendonk, Auschwitz, and Buchenwald, and the ghettos of Europe. Survivors describe the resistance which met the Nazi decision to destroy the Warsaw ghetto in 1943, lengthy trips by cattle-car to extermination camps, capricious selection of gas chamber victims and the endless variety of tortures devised to bring about Hitler's "final solution to the Jewish question."  

Broadcast on TV on July 18, 1960 the "Remember Us" documentary which includes fragments from Alain Resnais' classic 32 minute documentary "Night and Fog" (1956), opens with Dr. Gisela Perl, a survivor of the Holocaust...a Romanian Jewish Gynecologist deported to Auschwitz in 1944 where she attended hundreds of women as an inmate gynecologist without the bare necessities to perform her work, delegated by Josef Mengele. She relates her ordeal and the ordeal of others. Dr. Pearl is best known for her published book in 1948,  "I Was A Doctor in Auschwitz."  Other interviews are spoken by Sonia Weissman (the donor's wife and a survivor of the Warsaw Ghetto), Janus T (a survivor of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising), and Mr. Friedman (a survivor of Treblinka). The film goes on to use various well-known pieces of footage that exists in the USHMM film and video collection, such as German newsreel footage, Nuremberg War Crimes Trials as well as other war crimes trials, Mogilev gas van footage, etc. The film also incorporates well-known still photographs. There are images (and montages) of equipment used for medical experimentation, for example, a gynecological examination chair. At the conclusion of the film, narrator Quentin Reynolds warns that the Holocaust must be remembered least it be repeated. He then goes on to use the example of apartheid in South Africa as a [contemporary] parallel.

This extraordinary documentary which aired only one time and repeated in the early morning hours, has been forgotten by the public for 60 years. It is not available anywhere except for an archived 16mm print donated as a gift by Leo Weissman to the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in 1999.

A Variety Review described the film this way.

"In the annals of TV there probably hasn't been a more gruesome documentary than 'Remember Us,' an hour-length 
depiction of the Nazi horror which ravaged 9 ,000,000 lives and left an open sore on humanity's conscience. No better telling has caught the diabolic character of the Nazi regime than ‘Remember Us,' a title which echoes and re-echoes when matched against the past and present. It is not easy to view and listen; a terrible reminder for an unsettled world."

NOTE: It is interesting that 34 years later Steven Spielberg would initiate a six-year worldwide filming coordination,  producing "Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation Project," begun in 1994 with the objective to film/video tape and preserve first-person survivor testimonies and encourage their use in education.

In 1985, Phil Gries, founder and owner of Archival Television Audio, Inc. filmed a series of interviews with filmmaker Cluade Lanzmann which were televised each night for four consecutive nights after an installment of Lanzmann's nine-and-a-half-hour epic documentary SHOAH, broadcast on PBS in its entirety. Nine years later, in December of 1994, Gries worked on the documentary "Bringing the Holocaust Home," for the BBC. For many days Gries filmed inside the new United States Holocaust Museum, in Washington DC, which was closed to the public during filming sequences within the museum. This landmark institution opened its doors for the first time to the public the previous year (March 22, 1993). Half - a- year later Phil Gries was hired to film 15 interviews (July-September 1995)...65 hours of footage with holocaust survivors for the Spielberg Survivors of the Shoah project at the inception of Spielberg's visionary undertaking. Most of the sit-down interviews, conducted by social workers, averaged two hours long. Some of them lasted four hours long. It was ALWAYS an emotional experience for subject and all others involved in the filming.

Today, twenty-five years later,112,000 thousand hours (52,000 separate interviews) of interviews have been conducted around the world and are preserved in The Visual History Archive. The material is digitized, and fully searchable via indexed keywords, and hyperlinked to the minute at the USC SHOAH FOUNDATION in Southern California. 

REMEMBER US (1960), in many respects one of the first of such documentary retrospectives of the horrors of the Holocaust, remains a most hard hitting and compelling reminder and retelling of the horrors of Adolf Hitler's "solution to the Jewish question."

#59: PROJECT 20: THE TWISTED CROSS

Dwight D. Eisenhower , Alexander Scourby , Adolf Hitler , Robert Russell Bennett , Richard Hanser , Wilson Hall , Henry Salomon , Fidel Castro , Joseph Goebbels , Hermann Goering , Heinrich Himmler , Rudolf Hess

Alexander Scourby narrates this documentary showing the rise and fall of Adolf Hitler.  Produced by Henry Salomon and Richard Hanser.  Musical score by Robert Russell Bennett.  NBC news bulletins with Wilson Hall interrupts programming, stating that "President Eisenhower has broken off U.S. relations with Castro's Cuba."  This program originally aired on March 14, 1956.

NOTE:
This was the second of over 30 different NBC PROJECT XX documentaries made for television (1954-1970). This broadcast depicts a chronicle of the rise and fall of Adolf Hitler, dictator of Germany. The story begins with scenes of Hitler as a shabby  street-corner orator in Munich Germany. It shows his rise to a position of supreme power in his homeland and eventually in much of Europe. 

High Nazi officials are seen strutting about at the height of their success. Goering, Goebbels, Himmler and Hess are among the figures seen in addition to Adolph Hitler. Aside from newsreel shots of concentration camps there are reconstructed scenes of Nazi victims being prepared for extermination. 
There are scenes of mass Nazi rallies. 

As Nazi power begins to fail, there are scenes of Germans fleeing for shelter from "Allied bomb s. From a recent German movie comes re-enacted details of the abortive bomb lot against Hitler's life  on July 20, 1944. Newsreels show Der Fuhrer being congratulated on his escape from death. But in fact his health is broken. While he broods in his bunker, Berlin falls in ruins above him. As the Russians advance on the doomed capitol Hitler takes his own life.

An exceptional original music score is composed by Robert Russell Bennett to compliment and give impact to the visuals, and the narrative by Alexander Scourby is superb. He would continue to narrate over half of all Project XX events during its 16 year television cycle.

A Reviewer's Comment:

   I am a professional musician, so I am probably a little more aware of the background music than many other viewers, but I need to mention that one can shut the picture or one's eyes and just concentrate on the score and Alexander Scourby's voice to have a rather enjoyable hour, for the music is non-stop for the entire hour.
