wonderful (are all those facts true, yikes)...i like the non-linear story telling sequence in that one, its a winner, imo

thanks for playing, i just knew this thread would be a smash hit

remember a bad short if still 30x better than a bad film (it wastes that much less of ones time)

The Cartoon netork used to have a series called "O'Canada" which showed this and other old Canadian work like this.

Love to see that again though I'm sure many of them are on YT.

So glad this thread was posted.

Many years ago WTTW, of course the PBS station here in Chicago used to show these film shorts. Can't remember much, some were animated as well as live action.

Couple I remember was one called "Arrow To The Sun." It was a Native American film of some sort.

Another, which I don't know the title to, was some crazy film, which looked like it was made back in the 60's, where some guy's trying to get to work and encouters all this trouble.

In order of events.

The driver's ash tray catches on fore.


Takes off another drivers car door.


Runs over a puddle and splashes a lady.

Last part a nearby clock starts bonging as he's runnig to catch his train and misses it.

Perhaps it's on YT but I wish I knew the title to it.
