★★★★★ · the camera is a liar(, yes and no) · cashel · 2004-03-02
This film presents the sight of many relaxed,contented people viewing human beauty in action. I would suggest that,in fact, the crowd is troubled,beset by financial and other problems It is gentle propaganda.But, this a too serious comment.The film is a charming record of an event where people are displaying good human nature.
