An MGM TRAVELTALK Short Subject.
In this little film, produced years before Indian independence & the dissolution of the princely states, we are given a fascinating look at INDIA ON PARADE. After a quick glimpse of Agra, we are whisked away to view the private army of the Maharajah of Baroda. Unimaginable wealth is on display, as the sacred oxen & mighty elephants lumber by, covered with golden blankets & jewel-encrusted trappings. We are then permitted a peek at the Maharajah's favorite performing elephant & a troop of frisky monkeys. Finally, its back to Agra for a closer look at the wondrous Taj Mahal.
The song heard at the end of the film is 'Pale Hands Beside The Shalimar' - once upon a time reputed to be the favorite of silent screen idol Rudolph Valentino. His recording of it (not heard here) is the only sample of his voice in existence.
This is one of a large series of succinct travelogues turned out by MGM, beginning in the 1930's. They featured Technicolor views of beautiful & unusual sights around the globe, as well as vivid, concise commentary. These films were produced & narrated by James A. FitzPatrick.
