What year?

[swstephe]

I was trying to figure out what year the movie was made.  IMDB doesn't give a date.  It makes reference to the SS Morro Castle fire, which occurred in 1934, as an example of a large number of people dying.  It has Kay Kyser, and references his catchphrase, "that's right, you're wrong" from his radio show, 1939-1949, but doesn't mention the war.  My guess is 1940, or earlier.  There doesn't seem to be any reference to the Great Depression, though.

[MartyS (Gromit)]

Found a newspaper article from 1946 that mentions the movie being played.

Someone who knows old cars should be able to tell what the newest car in the short is...

It actually took an older safety short (the one with the demon driver) and incorporated it. That's why there's more than one narrator.
