This Footage of a Gay Pool Party in 1945 Inspired a New Documentary
“I just knew that it was gold. It was something special.”
A new documentary is under production after filmmaker Geoff Story made a unique discovery at an estate sale in St. Louis, Missouri, according to St. Louis Public Radio .
Decades-old home movies show men in the summer sun, dancing with one another and kissing at a private pool party in 1945, ephemeral freedom radiating from them. Having made the rare find of a depiction of queer life during a time when being found out as LGBT could ruin almost every aspect of your life, Story has started piecing together parts of the home movies into Gay Home Movie . The film will explore the time period of the movies, where invisibility was imperative to survival.
The films were bought at the estate sale of Buddy Walton, who was a preferred hairdresser to celebrities in the 40s. “Queens and president’s wives and movie stars – he was always around fancy places and fancy things,” Susie Seagraves, Walton’s niece, told St. Louis Public Radio. “He had a beautiful life.”
Since stumbling on the recordings, Story has made an attempt to find anyone from the pool party who might still be alive today and willing to talk about it. He and his co-director, Beth Prusaczyk, have found relatives of some of the men, but none of the men themselves. “We naively set out thinking, ‘Oh, these men might be in their mid-90s, they could still be alive,’ and that might be true,” said Prusaczyk. “But I don’t know if we’ll actually find them.”
Story, a gay man himself, was reportedly captivated by the scenes in the film, some depicting uniformed soldiers kissing other men, the fleeting happiness of the scenes a poignant force. Many of the men in the film are seen with wedding rings, only able to take a brief respite from the life-long façade they’d constructed for themselves. “I just knew that it was gold,” Story said of the films. “It was something special.”

I wasn’t going to share my newest 12 year old’s birthday party because there wasn’t anything too exciting about it. There was no theme, no fancy invitations or gift bags (friends were invited by Skype during online game play) no cutesy food – just a run of the mill sleepover. But then I thought maybe you’d like to see that bloggers do normal too. Sometimes I take a fun idea or two from a really over the top party and sometimes I don’t.

These were the decorations . That’s it! He didn’t care, so I didn’t care. I filled them up with my Balloon Time helium tank and called it good. In fact, they had fun posing for pictures so they were totally worth it.
We ordered pizza and had the one request the boys did make – Ecto Cooler . Yep! It’s back. There’s some in stock at Amazon right now or you can order HEB online (you can get a free shipping code on your first order).
Some of the boys brought their foam dart guns and Super Impulse had sent us some of their new launching line Precision RBS to review, that I knew the boys would all want to check out.
These are actually very cool and much better made than the rubber band launchers of my day.
The Hyperion was the favorite of the night with pinpoint accuracy 50 feet downfield! There are three different band sizes, for capacity of 26 loaded bands, plus extra side storage. But the best part is the blast feature – launches 14 bands AT ONCE! They were dying to show this to Dad when he got home. I loved that they came with cardboard targets. You can check out a video of these here .
Since there were more boys than targets, they set up a bunch of plastic cups outside and went to town for quite a while!
Once the sun went down, they jumped in the pool. We did this for one of their parties last year so they asked to do it again. We rounded up all the extra glow sticks from the house (why do I always have these lying around) and they made up pool games for quite a while.
I also set up the movie screen outside and faced it towards the pool so they could watch while they floated (though I’m not sure anyone actually watched the whole movie). We still use something like this inexpensive projector and make up a screen but we’ve been doing it enough that it might be time to get some better equipment!
That was it, we ate pizza had some chips and fruit for snack and cereal for breakfast. The boys barely played video games. They hung out and played most of the night. It really was such a fun night and no Pinterest searching needed

You’re link is for an iPhone splitter. But you have some nice ideas. Thanks.
Oh no! Thanks for letting me know, I updated it.
It worried me that it appeared that the only lights in the pool were glow sticks. At any age, a head could slip underwater and disappear until it was too late. Otherwise, great ideas! Especially taking suggestions from the boys.

It's always a pleasure to report live from Temptation Sundays, the only gay pool party on the Vegas Strip. Held at the Luxor Hotel & Casino , the event gathers a diverse (age, race, body shape) gaggle of gay and bi guys from around the world. A friendly, welcoming vibe is apparent and it's a lovely break from the hetero energy that proliferates vast swaths of Sin City — we're ready for Temptation Fridays, Saturdays, and Tuesdays. Click through for more pics from this weekend's event, check out last year's party, and find out more about Temptation Sundays here.
