★★★★ · Communications Crash Course.. 1920's style! · Spuzz · 2003-04-05
This VERY unique film, made in 1927, s probably the oldest industrial/educational film you'll ever get to see. Made with the intent of educating people on the wonders of sound, the film is more then a course on phone wiring, it's a great snapshot of how to make an industrial film in 1927. Many cool animations are used. As well, we get to see how the old style telephones were made. A quite unique film.
