Eleanor Roosevelt Waves

Shot from above, Franklin D. and Eleanor Roosevelt ride in the back of an open car. She waves, he waves his hat. In a MS, the car pulls to a stop. Later, there's a dozen quick shots of a smiling, energetic Eleanor. On a balcony, she accepts a bouquet from below. She strides quickly out of a building to a waiting car. She rides on a platform hoisted by a crane, dances, rides a horse. Eleanor waves from the doorway of a train. Eleanor visits worksites. Later, she christens a ship and two planes. In one funny shot she says, "I christen you New York Flyer," and it takes four tries and two people to break the bottle.
