Memo For Joe
This is a short documentary (10 min) made in 1944. It discusses and praises the virtues of the American Community Chest charity program and its value to the Allied war effort. It was part of the RKO-Pathe News This Is America documentary series.
Inspired by Louis de Rochemont's The March of Time, it was intended to uplift the nation during a period of depression and doubt.
Along with Flicker Flashbacks, a series of comedy shorts, this was possibly the first film Fleischer directed.
