✎ Suggest a correction"In a setting of rugged country between high cliffs, contractors and foremen are studying blueprints for a large construction job. We learn how the bids are let and the plans made before the work is started. Surveyors stake out the road for the direction and height of the road. Close-ups throughout the picture teach us accurately the different processes, but we stress always the men themselves, 'A real opportunity to show the different skills and crafts.' 'Supercolossal' might be the term to use in summing up this film. It is so good that there is nothing to criticize. Photography, color, narration are excellent." "Many close-ups make us feel we are a part of this big project." Secondary educ.
