This film “Sun and Dust“ is a Colorventure Production made in 1957 by filmmakers Lawrence and Nadine Randall, as part of a series of travelogues they called “World Colorventures”. The film portrays a trip South from the U.S. border to Guadalajara and back, covering various natural sites, tourist attractions, and local crafts. Lawrence Randall was a Chicago-based clothing company executive who, in his spare time, made travel films with his wife Nadine. “Sun and Dust“ was eventually distributed by the Chicago school system in an hour-long version, as well as this short version. Another film by the Randalls for Easter Seals, entitled “The Brightest Jewel“ was screened nationwide by the Rotary Club and other organizations as part of fundraising efforts.
