It's always been interesting to me how tastes in film genres change over time.
However as certain genres get revisited occasionally, there is one that seems to be gone for good. The travelogue. There was a time that escaping to the cinema was also a chance to see places from around the world that were too unreachable for most. James A. FitzPatrick filled this gap with his Traveltalk shorts duing the 1930s and 1940s. Today, these are an opportunity to not only see places far away, but relics of a time gone by.
