Viking Trails

0 minA 20th Century Fox Magic Carpet of Movietone travelogue short released in December 1938, depicting Scandinavian “Viking” history and landscapes. Produced as part of Fox’s long-running newsreel/travel series, the film later gained historical significance as a source of stock footage in Frank Capra’s World War II propaganda documentary Divide and Conquer (1943). Barnouw notes its inclusion among the “bits of European history” repurposed by Capra, and Frank Capra’s Eastern Horizons likewise cites Viking Trails—alongside Warner’s Escape From Crime and Paramount’s The Avengers—as source material.
