Father Nile Egypt: 1935 Wonders

This circa 1935 silent travelogue, Father Nile (Egypt), captures Egypt’s timeless allure in black-and-white 16mm. Good shots of the Giza pyramids loom majestically against the desert sky, their ancient stones dwarfing onlookers, while the Nile River flows serene and vital, framed by feluccas and lush banks near Cairo and Luxor. Likely filmed by a Beaux Art Productions crew or an avid traveler, this pre-war reel weaves the river’s lifeblood with the grandeur of pharaonic monuments, offering a poetic glimpse of Egypt’s enduring legacy along the “Father Nile.”
