Modern Tokyo (1935)
5/10
"Consider What A Little Time May Do For Tokyo"
27 April 2020
It's hard not to listen to James A. FItzpatricks' shouted words as we contemplate -- for with Fitzpatrick, we never look or see, according to him, we contemplate at the very least -- at the Technicolor images and not think ironic thoughts. Ah, yes, are we discussing the next ten years, the next fifty, or are we thinking about the 21st Century? Or perhaps even further ahead? Unless you're talking about no more than a couple of years, there's an ironic component to looking at this travelogue.

Oh well. This is one of the bettered preserved and presented of the Traveltalks that play frequently on TCM.
