While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Haiti: 'Land of Dark Majesty' (1941) ** 1/2 (out of 4) This TravelTalks short takes us to Haiti where we learn that in 1492 Columbus crashed there and is one reason why the majority of people in this Latin American place speak French (for what that's worth). We also learn that the majority of people there are black and that originally the place had been used for trading slaves, which led to a great battle for their freedom. With three million people now there, we learn about the local markets where someone could buy a pound of peas for a penny or be given bananas for free. This is another nice entry in the series with FitzPatrick once again delivering some great narration and keeping the film moving at a nice pace. While watching the film you can't help but feel that a lot of the stuff dealing with the slave days is overlooked to make the U.S. look a tad bit better as they're never mentioned when these days were discussed.
