In the field I know best, that of motion pictures, lasting impressions are easily conveyed. I hope & believe we will see films more widely used to reveal us not as isolated creatures striving for different ends, but as human beings w/ common aims; citizens, each of us, of the world community. In this community there will emerge that common humanity all of us have hoped to build on the ruins of two destructive wars.” Movie Stars; Political Appointments; Actresses; Culture; Motion Picture Promotions; Education; United Nations; Post-WWII Rebuilding; NOTE: Loy worked for UNESCO from 1949 to 1954.
