Car, Sir (1938)

Titles read: “CAR, SIR?“ Paris, France (?). M/S of a woman pushing a pram out of a doorway; she is followed by a couple in a tiny open car (the man driving is probably the Paris engineer inventor of the car). Various shots of the car being driven along Paris roads beside normal cars and trams, cutting down narrow alleyways, driving under trucks and so on. The man driving the car (now alone - the woman has disappeared) leans over the passenger seat to strike a match for his cigarette on the mudguard of a large vehicle. The whole front of the car is lifted up by a man. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
