History World War II-Soldiers of Industry (2-DVD): History World War IISoldiers of Industry 2DVD |
| Product Description : This outstanding set of DVDs is an extraordinary collection of wartime films, which carry both historic and educational significance. Produced at a time when the war was at its peak, these films convey in a dramatic fashion the urgency felt by the government at speeding up war time production of industrial goods. Two motives stand out clearly in the clips that you will witness - first to motivate woman and unskilled workers to take up jobs that were left vacant by the large scale enlistment, and second to honor the outstanding achievement of workers against heavy odds. Produced by Jim Handy, General Motors and various government agencies, these films also offer valuable insight into the problems of workers - especially women who were unused to industrial labor - and offer practical solutions for the more common ones. Dramatized episodes and situations are used to great effect in achieving this motive, while strong visuals showcasing booming industrial production of various goods provide positive reinforcement. The rapid pace and motivating narrations witnessed in these films ensure continued viewing interest. I have no doubt whatsoever that these films achieved the objectives they set out to - to motivate and educate wartime Americans to fight the war from their factories! |
