I saw a hi-res version of this film two days ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeF4HXCq5z0. It was almost anachronical. Low res. jittery black and white movies makes everything look obsolete.

IIRC, the guy had connections in the USA so he could grap some very early color tape to film the beginnings of the Normandie. Thanks to whoever was involved in this process.
