Weird And Wonderful! (1939)

Titles read: “WEIRD AND WONDERFUL!“ Location of events unknown - could be Germany? Various shots of theatre costumes for a new continental theatre show. One outfit looks like feather-decked showgirl creation; others look more suitable for a ballet. Most are based on insects, another represents the sun. An androgynous person does exotic hand movements while showing off the costume and silvery make-up of the ’killer insect’ of the piece. Final shot shows all the models walking down a white staircase. Could be for a cabaret show? FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV. IT’S FULL OF GREAT DOCUMENTARIES, FASCINATING INTERVIEWS, AND CLASSIC MOVIES.
