We're in Business Too!

About This Movie

We're in Business Too! is an intriguing documentary from 1964 that explores the perks of train travel for business folks. The tone is quite persuasive, almost like a friendly chat, emphasizing relaxation and productivity. It’s not flashy but has this unique charm with practical effects showing trains in action and candid interviews. The pacing is steady, allowing viewers to absorb the various angles on why rail travel is superior to flying or driving. It touches on themes of comfort and efficiency in contrast to the hustle of city life. Overall, it feels like a well-intentioned nudge to reconsider how we traverse the country.

This film is somewhat rare in collector circles, as it was released in a limited format, making it a curiosity for documentary enthusiasts. I've seen a few copies pop up at specialty shops, but they don't stay long. Its appeal lies not just in its content but in the nostalgia for a bygone era of travel, which draws interest from those who appreciate mid-century culture.
