    Great picture! My grandmother worked in Unilever House during the mid-1940s and I worked across the Thames from it on Blackfriars Bridge in the early 2000s (about where those 3 chimneys are, top left of picture) so it's fantastic to see what it looked like in the early 1930s, thank you!

    I love the fact that the French treated it as a liqueur and drank it from elegant small glasses.

  11. I wonder what sort of camera was used? Looks like medium format aspect ratio. I miss the film camera look.

  12. Apparently the guy working the boom mic in the landspeeder scene is now playing the role of Speedo Guy on Bob's Burgers...
