Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Colour Above All (Coverage in Colour). DESCRIPTION: The leaves of Spring will soon be out, and here are some bright suggestions from the new Simone Mirman hat collection in London. For example, a cloche, decorated with snails. That’s a new idea. Better make a note! Or a summery straw. It’s a woman’s privilege to change her mind, and so does model Sandra. From straw to silk, a change of mood. Anyway, two hats for the price of one! A fruity affair is worn by Celia. Raspberries and blackberries covering a flower-pot. SHOTLIST: Key scene. MCU two women with fancy hats. CU zoom ditto.
