This film seems to be unique, except for the film that they shot at the San Diego exposition. 13 minutes sounds just right for this one. I think you could point to any monument and say that and no one could argue with you.

This is a curious film, different from everything else at the time, isn't it? <br />The version I saw on YouTuve was only 13 minutes long. Boo to the slow version.<br />Oh, I hope I can someday point to a monument and say "it's from the Oriental phase of the Spanish-Moorish architecture!"<br />Thanks for the kind comment!<br />LeLêhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02419693749682458647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7783521748442862584.post-3390436295522315292015-05-04T20:21:17.700-07:002015-05-04T20:21:17.700-07:00Thank you, Silver Screenings.

I thought some people might find the film confusing and the historical background might help.

It allows us to tour this vicariously. And thanks for providing all the historical info, too!
