A grandeur in Mexico France greets Mexico with deep respect. These words of President de Gaulle - spoken in running Spanish - mark the start of a spectacular, almost unprecedented operation of that erupted with the power of a natural event over Mexico. We combine this speech of de Gaulle to the Mexican people with the images of his State visit, to make visible some of the enigmatic allure, which spreads by de Gaulle himself to people, who have never seen it.
The world in which we live, is in the stage of complete change. On this image of the break, de Gaulle builds the Honorable offer for cooperation with Mexico, making the Mexicans shareholders of French grandeur. The willingness of the President to address the guest people in their own language, his rough, haunting voice and his ability to fall in a kind of disciplined Ecstasy at the end: it is a textbook case of a superior public relations talent named de Gaulle - apart from the political aspects -.

Film in the conversation, the first film news of the week affects ourselves for once. The North Rhine-Westphalian Interior Minister Willi Weyer visited the production site of the UFA Wochenschau, to inform about the State of development and the technical equipment of the German newsreel productions.
This studio produced nearly 100 documentaries in 15 languages except the UFA Wochenschau per year.
One of the great actresses of the German film finds the due recognition in Hamburg ateliers At last. In addition to Götz George, Hildegard Knef plays directed by Alfred Vohrer starred in a highly original and exciting crime movie.
In the history of dramatic events between London and Trieste Hildegard Knef get in the bathtub - probably protected by foam from the scissors of censorship - and it gives the film so that touch of irony that makes the toughest crime human.
In the tougher climes of the international film material results in a strip that is directed by Sobey Martin in Berlin. "Freddy and the song of the Prairie". The German pop star sounds also this time and midst tenderest enticements in spite only on his own, well known voice in the Wild West.

A washboard is the rhythmic characteristic of an old jazz variant, the Chamber inclinations of many young people include the washboard musicians. In Hamburg, the supporters of skiffle music wore out their North German Championships. The tea chests bass, a further peculiarity of the Skifflens.
This dating back to the southern States of the United States music in Europe was rediscovered only in 1954. In its origin, it meant a secular interpretation old Negro longing, a feeling world that just today arouses emotions in the faces of young people.
The music of the Vapire meets the peculiar, reminiscent of shanties, mood of the skiffle song best skiffle group. The lonesome traveler: I want to go home. I'm traveling home.

The bookies were 18 horses for the 125th time signaled the latest Favorites in Aintree, for the same vielten time the British invested money and hope in horse legs, whispered her secret to the experts: "team spirit", the horse from America, the star of the 125th Grand National.
33 horses start in the heaviest obstacle race in the world. There are more than four miles and 30 obstacles before them.
"L ' Empereuer", "Peacetown" are the first obstacle and "Purple silk" front. 32 horses make it - only "flying wild" separates from his Jockey in anger.
The field is located after the first obstacles as close as rare in Aintree. Two horses lead: "Peacetown" - number 17 before "Out on about" - number 18 "flying wild" - number 2 - gorgeous is progressing without a Jockey.
The turf by Aintree will slowly empty. The victim is left behind the camera.
In the target sheet "Peacetown" leads still, followed by "Out and About". The field is one of the most dangerous obstacles: Beachers Brook.
Heavy falls confirm the reputation this year of the Grand National as a murderous race. There are only 15 in the race by 33 horses.
The last obstacle before the final straight. And now comes the American national consciousness in "team spirit". WINS in a big finish "team spirit", only the Grand beaten by a Jockey enemy horse, national in 1964, and so its owners 227.136 mark.
