Synopsis
The film consists of many rapidly cut together visuals, including black-and-white footage of a nude woman with a pearl necklace, a couple of Mickey Mouse cartoons,[1] and newsreel footage of World War II and atomic bomb explosions, all set to Ray Charles's "What'd I Say" (the one used in the film is featured on his 1973 live album).[2][3][4][5][6]
