The Middleton Family At The New York World's Fair

1939, sound, 55 min, Technicolor, 35mm. Transferred from a 35mm nitrate print.; See: Andrew Wood, "The Middleton Family at the New York World's Fair," http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty/wooda/middleton/index1.html.; This drama illustrates the contribution of free enterprise, technology, and Westinghouse products to the American way of life. The Middleton Family at the New York World's Fair pits an anti-capitalist bohemian artist boyfriend against an all-American electrical engineer who believes in improving society by working through corporations. The Middletons experience Westinghouse's technological marvels at the Fair and win back their daughter from her leftist boyfriend.; Memorable moments: the dishwashing contest between Mrs. Modern and Mrs. Drudge, Electro, the smoking robot, and the Westinghouse time capsule.
