John Forsythe narrates this Jam Handy industrial film made for General Motors' Chevrolet division. It extols the many basic materials, the web of highways and rails that bring these together to permit skilled men and women to build automobiles.
Like many of the Jam Handy shorts for Chevrolet, it spends most of its time not talking about what it is selling. The word "automobile" isn't uttered until twenty-one minutes into its half-hour length. Instead, it celebrates the things that make the auto possible, and in turn celebrates what it makes possible.
Those of us who think of Forsythe as the unseen Charlie of CHARLIE'S ANGELS, or as the handsome lead of BACHELOR FATHER will recognize his voice.
