Cinetopicalities In Brief No. 118 (1940)

Titles read: “CINETOPICALITIES IN BRIEF“. Various locations of events. In Illinois, United States of America, we see a tiny one-man submarine being tried out on a lake - looks very claustrophobic! It goes beneath the surface, then comes up again. Commentator says the sub has been developed so that flora and fauna can be studied. We then see a midget with a tiny car he has built to his own specifications. He polishes it, winds her up and gets in. He drives off and along a road, chased some of the way by a dog. The man lights a cigarette beside his car; commentator says “Look out, sonny - petrol!“ and we see animated effects of an explosion. (Location of events unspecified - looks like United States.) In Brisbane, Australia, we see various shots of motorcyclists trying to ride up a steep hill. Some make it, some fall off on the way up. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
