Ancient Mexican Dances for President (film #2 on Universal Newsreels). [Category: News]

Newsreel story from the 30s showing Mexican Indian tribes doing tribal dances for the Mexican President. The huge headdresses are somewhat interesting, but this is too short to really have much historical value.

Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: *. Weirdness: **. Historical Interest: ***. Overall Rating: **.
