Hollywood is known to take liberties with fact in its productions and certainly did so here. But for all that, this is a visually beautiful and very engaging short that won an Oscar (deservedly). The short runs as filler on Turner Classic Movies on no set schedule along with tons of other shorts. Recommended.
