Well. they LOOKED like bombs...
We open this one up with several shots of a plane diving and then flying straight, but dropping off a few bombs. These are all model planes. No clapboard.
Next are several exciting scenes. The first takes place in a library, it's calm, until a trio of people run by, and then they contemplate about going in, to hide from wherever they were hiding from.
Next, several shots of people entering and exiting the building, the cops arrive, congregate on the steps! Soon of course, 1950s onlookers arrive to gawk! This is repeated several times, great scene! Clapboard of Ratoff / Tennura, which means from a quick look see on the internet that this is "Two Yanks In Trinidad" from 1941.
Next are some curious scenes. We start out with a guy who looks to be standing near two movie spotlights? Anyways, he stands there for a bit, and then finally some cars go by. And then explosions go off! and then walking soldiers are seen, with the exposions happening. All these explosions are barely acknowledged. We see other similar scenes, and one with horses.
We then cut to a forest scene. Nothing happens for a few seconds until we see a plane hurtle down and explode into flames! Wee!
After that, we conclude with more planes, and the dogfight we saw in another reel.
Great fun!
