Master 1 - Tape 1 Re-enactments of some old driving scenes (people from the 1950s pretend they are people from the 1910s). An old guy walks up to an early model car and opens a box from which he pulls out a crank. This is inserted in the side of the car; he starts to crank. He does a kind of jerky jump start and eventually lets the crank fall out of the hole. In a second shot, a man in a black derby stands in front of a car and cranks the starting crank. He appears to hurt his hand. a sunday drive in the country, car driving toward camera down a winding road. Two shots of car, one closeup, in which you basically see the man and woman (all decked out in Sunday best, nice hat); one medium shot, where the whole car is visible.
