The Buildings Already Begun

Pettigrew, William, (film director.). Glover, Guy, (film producer.). National Film Board of Canada (Montreal), (film producer.).

Summary: Not everyone agreed that the buildings already begun were worth finishing, but, in spite of opposition, Canada built its imposing Houses of Parliament in Ottawa on the hill above the river. From a rich archive of pictures of the federal Parliament buildings as they developed over the past hundred years, this film creates a vivid sense of being there.
