Southern California Edison promotional film features a housewife preparing dinner for eight persons at short notice. She uses her modern electrical appliances in her kitchen to prepare the meal easily and still make her afternoon theater reservations. "Dinner for Eight" was the second experimental film of any kind made using the Technicolor process, done in 1934 as a test and shown in theatres by Edison as an advertisement for electric appliances. Format of original: Reel (see DVD copy)
