You could compare this film to Rochester: A City of Quality which is sillier and more interesting to watch. This film has a narrative which reminds me of the World Book and a film editing style like one of the blasting cap movies. LOL Not very good. I think this is for employees being relocated and what they are in for. The Jam Handy Rochester has more of a sales pitch for city investors feel to it. Doomsday films like Story of SAGE are better suited for IBM.
