Review
In this gonzo short, the fashions of 1930's-1940's are showcased.. But not just any old clothes. These are BENBERG rayon! (note the caps). These are HIDEOUS fashions folks, ugly stripes. dresses that look like table cloths, weird looking hats and that ever so gay narration makes this short a VERY strange viewing experience.
