November 8, 1944


November 8, 1944, originally uploaded by Filboid Sudge.

The presidential election of 1944 is considered, by one guy at least, to be among the top ten least important elections in U.S. history. It did feature, and not for the last time, a politician delivering a speech defending his dog.

The '44 election is represented in this 1945 film explaining American democracy to the recently liberated. Directed the old-fashioned way by John Houseman and featuring animation by John Hubley.

Oh yes, that was a classic!

I wish I had a tape of it.
