James A. Fitzpatrick sends the Technicolor cameras up to San Francisco to shoot this companion piece to A DAY ON TREASURE ISLAND. visually it's certainly worth the ten minutes it takes to watch this. I don't know if Carney defocused the cameras slightly, the water from the fountains produced a bit of mist, the print was a tad blotchy, or some combination of these factors, but the lit fountains at night, the illuminated Art Noveau facades are quite lovely like that. So are the pictures drawn from around the world.... which seems to consists og the US, England, France, the Netherlands and Italy.
Of course no Traveltalk would be complete without Fitzpatrick shouting out some ridiculous polysyballic phrase or two, and offers one or two of those. My favorite incongruity is when he calls Raphael "immortal" and then immediately gives 1520 as the date of his death.
