This Weekend in 1942, ‘Captains of the Clouds‘ was directed by Michael Curtiz and starring James Cagney, Dennis Morgan, Brenda Marshall, Alan Hale, Sr., George Tobias, Reginald Gardiner, and Reginald Denny. Released in an era of patriotic films with overt propaganda themes, ‘Captains of the Clouds’ received an enthusiastic public acceptance. Although it was a “Hollywood” production, the film premiered simultaneously on February 21, 1942 in New York, London, Ottawa, Cairo, Melbourne, Toronto, Winnipeg, and Vancouver, with RCAF pilots transporting film copies to all these cities. The public reaction can be partly attributed to the plot line that revolved around the unique Canadian wilderness and the bush pilot mystique. The vivid aerial scenes filmed in Technicolor were another aspect of the expensive production that gained critical attention.
This weekend in 1942, ‘“String of Pearls‘ with Glenn Miller and His Orchestra was #1 record on Billboard.

Social Media Research
YouTube Viewership Hits 1 Billion Hours a Day
YouTube viewers worldwide are watching a billion hours of video content each day, the company reports, positioning the video-sharing site for its next big move—capturing more TV ad dollars. According to The Wall Street Journal, which first reported the story, the milestone is fueled by YouTube’s personalized algorithms, which recommend videos to users and are designed “to keep them watching longer.”
“YouTube’s decision a few years ago to prioritize viewing time, rather than clicks, has made the platform an increasingly effective advertising vehicle,” said eMarketer principal video analyst Paul Verna. “Marketers have long prized time spent as a measure of engagement, so YouTube’s emphasis on that aspect of its platform has positioned the company to capture a growing share of TV budgets,” Verna said. “It also set the stage for YouTube to enter the live TV arena, which it plans to do sometime this year.”
Despite an increasingly competitive digital video space that is packed with new—and successful—properties, usage of YouTube remains strong and continues to be an important part of parent company Alphabet’s portfolio. Although eMarketer doesn’t break out daily usage of YouTube, we estimate the video-sharing platform will reach 185.9 million monthly US users in 2017.
Meanwhile, roughly 85% of digital video viewers will be YouTube viewers, eMarketer projects. And among users of OTT services, YouTube is essentially at saturation—over 95%. “YouTube’s newest milestone is a testament to powerful innovations in personalization. As the video giant serves up custom-tailored video recommendations, viewers are staying glued to their screens,” said eMarketer senior forecasting director Monica Peart. “However, in the race to win advertiser attention, it remains to be seen whether brands will be attracted to the current library of overwhelmingly nonpremium content, as they are accustomed to telling their stories within premium content viewing environments, vis-a-vis TV,” Peart said.
