The Detroit You've Never Meet (1965)
Sponsor:US Olympic Committee

A really nice companion piece to Detroit: City on The Move except this time, the film was made for the US Olympic committee, who were having second thoughts of supporting the big when rumors of Detroit's financial problems began swirling. The Mayor and the Governor come out to make speeches (The Governor's is quite spirited!). Some great promises are made here about Olympic sites that of course were never built.
