| Description: | "NEWS FROM THE CONTINENT". Intertitle reads: "ITALY". A female trainer stands with a baby gorilla in his cage and makes him clap his hands (voiceover calls the animal a chimp, but it is a gorilla). A girl in a spangled showgirl costume does the twist while a chimpanzee stands opposite her and does the same (sort of). The woman trainer is seen with another chimp, talking to her in Italian. When she asks the chimp to give her a kiss she does so. The woman chatters on and the chimp says "Mama" several times then gives her another kiss. Seriously weird! | |
