<VV> 100 Years of Chevy

[Brent Fullard]

Florentine Films is the production company of Ken Burns who has done a number of multi-episode specials for PBS (Baseball, The Civil War, Prohibition to name 3). 

GM has been his long standing sponsor which probably explains why he was asked to produce this piece.

I just watched a specila on the Velocity channel.
100 Yras of Chevy.
They did mention the Corvair and showed some and talked to some folks. Don't remember the names.
It was an okay piece.
I noticed at the end it was done by an outfit called Florentine Films.
Sometime last year I was asked to submit some photos and written materials to a company making a film about cars is what I was told. I signed some waviers and such and pretty much forgot about it.
That is until I saw this production. Alas, I was left on the cutting room floor again! Dang! I was ready for my close up too...
