"Many forms of art originated in old Japan. Here is a demonstration of a unique and improbably one that began as entertainment for children. Origami, the art of paper folding, is charmingly portrayed and described in this very imaginative film. One of the Ten Best, it will be enjoyed in the 1963 Top of the Ten pack" PSA Journal, Oct. 1963, 40.
"Orient–Old and New–Japan is an excellent travelog of this oriental island in the well known superb Ross style. Narrated by his wide, we are taken to many of the well known spots on the island, and shown some of the more unusual places of interest. The commentary is full of factual information which gives the film an exceptionally good pacing" PSA Journal, Sept. 1964, 50.
"Hansen travels to Hong Kong following his original visit to China in 1937. Initially, he spends much of his time roaming the commercial districts, giving a sense of tourism side of Hong Kong. Immediately following, he spends several minutes focusing on the skyline and captures footage of locations on the outskirts of the city. Hansen then spends the rest of the evening eating at a local cuisine and attending a show. For the remainder of his trip, Hansen shifts his attention from Hong Kong's tourist areas to the residential districts, fishing docks, and rural farming." UC San Diego Library.

"Operazioni, III, realizzato da Gian Luigi Dorigo, nella Sala Operatoria della Divisione Chirurgica Ortopedica del prof. Francesco Delitala, Ospedale Civile di Venezia. Il film fa parte della Serie delle Operazioni che Gian Luigi Dorigo sta realizzando con l'intento di interpretare gli interventi chirurgici in forma non inespressiva, come fino ad oggi i documentarii scientifici, ma valendosi dei mezzi precipi del cinematografo, e in una parola, del montaggio, per la più chiara ed evidente dimostrazione dell'assunto. La pellicola col titolo Una Mattina di Operazione ha partecipato ai Littoriali riscuotendo vivo interessamento. Gian Luigi Dorigo descrive in un articolo su questo numero le sue opinioni nei riguardi del film scientifico."

The film is part of the Series of Operations that Gian Luigi Dorigo is making with the intent to represent the surgical interventions in an expressive way, as up to now the scientific documentaries, but availing himself of the specific means of cinema, and in a word, the montage, for the clearest and most obvious demonstration of the thesis. The film with the title Una Mattina di Operazione (A Morning of Operation) participated in the Littoriali, attracting great interest. Gian Luigi Dorigo describes his opinions on scientific films in an article in this issue."
