Back in 1973 when I was 12, together with my younger cousin I made a 6 minutes
Lego film in Super 8, half of it using stop motion animation. Inspired by the
popular Apollo program, we built a rocket with several stages and room for the
LM, a launch vehicle, an aircraft carrier and many busses, cars and houses.
Minifigs were not invented yet, so we used small 1x1 brick men.

The film was a gift to our grandparents' golden wedding anniversary.
After the party our grandparents took the film and us to Billund, where we
showed it to Godtfred Kirk Christiansen. He liked it and had a copy made. We, in
turn, got a Lego factory tour and got some big sets to take home ;-)
