CARVING MAGIC

Cinemavixion Review

This short, sponsored film from Swift and Company, titled 'Carving Magic,' offers a practical demonstration of meat carving techniques, featuring the comedic talents of Harvey Korman. While the external data identifies Herschell Gordon Lewis as the director and provides a runtime of 20 minutes, the local description humorously highlights Korman's character, Al, teasing Charlie about his carving abilities, only for Charlie to reveal his mastery with a turkey. The film aims to educate viewers on the art of meat cutting, presented in a format that balances instruction with lighthearted entertainment. Despite its niche subject matter and a modest IMDb rating of 4.8/10, 'Carving Magic' serves as a charming example of mid-century corporate filmmaking, where utility meets a touch of personality.
