"Scene from Christmas Holiday, a 1944 Universal Pictures film starring Deanna Durbin. In this unusually long Solemn High Mass scene, we are treated to snippets from a real Midnight Mass celebrated at the former Cathedral of Saint Vibiana, the mother church cathedral parish of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles built in 1876. The cathedral has since been taken over by the city and is now used as event space."

Captains in His Army This is a video of the Serra Club of the Archdiocese of Saint Louis, definitely produced before the revolution, to promote vocations. It shows life at a seminary. A little bit long (26 minutes)

Video of H.H. Pope Pius XII speaking in English on the Holy Year, 1950.

Skip to the 2:20 mark to pass the Anthem of the Vatican City State to hear His Holiness (of Blessed Memory) speak.

The British Pathe website archive also has many old videos of Masses, etc. There are too many to post. Just go to britishpathe.com and enter Catholic in the search bar to see. Here is one example of a Mass said at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, 1941. Just look down to see the many other videos.
