★★★★ · Incorrect year...? · Bill S., A/V Geek class of 1978 · 2007-07-19
I noticed some of the cars were of a newer vintage than the 1947 year on the description...some 1955 Chevys and Oldsmobiles, for instance. I looked at the year on the title card and the roman numerals indicate 1956 as the year of release. A neat film, nontheless.

That's not Phil Foster in this film. He was a much wider gentleman, with a full head of hair. That is, however, his voice on the soundtrack. An interesting short, but the S.F. nightlife has grown considerably "wilder" since this film was made.
