In just over one minute,this b/w sound film. presents a true-life drama. No actors, just the real people..I consider it a superb achievement,not only artistically but as advertising. And thephotography is excellent

yeah I don't really get this film it seems all the person does to get the train back on track is turn a lever, so yeah I really don't get where all this "drama" is ooming from, sure if that happened in real life it'd be scary but that doesn't mean a movie has to be made about it.

PPbbfff! Not to mention that batteries poison our planet and lives. First off, their statement "Fresh Batteries last longer" is just kind of redundant and obvious. " "well, yes, if I haven't had my flashlight on for that long, then it will last longer" And how do you know that they are real people and not actors? This probably worked as well back in the 40 s as Reality TV works for our consumerified populace.? I think I am going to go through the ENTIRE emphumural section and hound all of this propoganda, although not nearly as inconspicuos and affective as ours today. Their knew slogan…
