THREE DAWNS TO SYDNEY
(Greenpark Productions) | p-adic gee dawn on the third day before Christmas and nightfall on Christmas Eve a plane flies a regular service from mid-winter London to mid-summer Sydney. Into a record of the flight John Eldridge has cut impressions of life in countries on the way-villagers and herdsmen in Sicily, Arabs of the desert, the birth of a child in rural Pakistan, a Chinese dancing girl’s day in Singapore, and Aborigines and Europeans in outback Australia. From the geen I expected something good from this documentary,. for I liked the way in which the departure was handled-the empty bed, the phone ringing for the departed traveller, one plane wheel turning, then rising as the undercarriage retracts to show the shadow of the plane on the ground below. Well photographed and well knit together, Three Dawns to Sydney is everyone’s film.
