About This Film
Film Overview
As part of the 24th Cleveland International Film Festival (2000), Ken Smith brought an amazing collection of archived Mental Hygiene films to Cleveland. Since then, Ken has assembled three completely new, two-hour shows of recently recovered rarities. Which include “Mind Your Manners!”, “How To Say No”, “What It Means To Be An American”, and “Narcotics: Pit Of Despair”. Each program is approximately 120 minutes long, with Ken Smith's introduction, background information and a sense of just what exactly these filmmakers were trying to accomplish.PRESENTED WITH THE GENEROUS SUPPORT OF WKSU 89.7FMShy Guy (1947) Coronet Instructional FilmsBeginning to Date (1953) Encyclopaedia Britannica FilmsThe Dropout (1962) Sid Davis ProductionsName Unknown (1951) Sid Davis ProductionsThe Prom: It's A Pleasure!
