Product Description

The familiar phrase, "Follow the Bouncing Ball," is part of the American culture. The mere mention of these words cues everyon to join in on a heart-warming commlunicty sing. originally conceived in 1924, Max Fleischer's KO-KO SONG CAR-TUNES were the first audience participation films, offering an improvement over the static hand-painted glass slide sing-alongs of the nickelodeon days. This program represents a previously lost chapter of motion picture history, which clearly establishes the "Bouncing Ball" Sing-Along as the first animation with sound, and the grandfather of today's Music Videos and Karaoke. Program includes: HAS ANYBODY HERE SEEN KELLY?, COMIN' THRO' THE RYE, WHEN THE MIDNIGHT CHOO-CHOO LEAVES FOR ALABAM', MY OLD KENTUCKY HOME, TRAMP-TRAM-TRAMP THE BOYS ARE MARCHING, BY THE LIGHT OF THE SILVERY MOON. Winner of the Plantium Award for Best Short Subject Documentary, Houston Film and Video Festival 2003

Description

Travel five continents in a 55 country rail trip in this ten part series. On this journey, we travel through six countries in Southeast Asia and across the Siberian continent from Bejing to Moscow.

Amazon.com

Beginning amid the Buddhist temples of Myanmar, the railroad odyssey featured in Travel the World by Train: Asia takes the viewer aboard trains in six nations in Southeast Asia before leaping to Beijing, where the final leg of the trip is an amazing 5,700-mile jaunt through China and across Kazakhstan to the final destination of Moscow. This video often leaves the rail route for side trips to temple ruins and other equally startling sights in the countries along the way, and the footage of scenery as well as of trains is always professional and often quite striking. The trip through Vietnam, from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, aboard the Reunification Express surprises with its appreciation for the natural beauty of the Vietnamese countryside. The video really doesn't offer much information about how Westerners could book such a trip for themselves, and some shots aboard the trains indicate that some of the accommodations (hammocks swinging in crowded train cars and lunches of chicken feet served on skewers) probably wouldn't entice most Western tourists anyway. But what the video lacks in practical instruction it makes up for with glorious footage of trains and remarkable scenery. --Robert J. McNamara
