Viewing Notes
An MGM short, shot in Technicolor, with some narration that made me do a double take. Australia is described as a great credit to “that branch of the white race that has so commendably established itself down under.” Huh?
At another point, Australia is referred to as a “white man’s paradise”. What the fuck?
