Complete Record: In this parody, the President of the Victory Umbrella Company signs a contract with a film maker to make a promotional spot for them. The President says “were not going to try to tell you how to make pictures,” and then proceeds to make fantastic demands on the direction the picture should take. A painting of the company’s founder comes to life. And there is a movie within a movie called “You can knock a good man down--but you can’t keep him down.”
