Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs

Date produced: 1960

Filmmaker(s):

Ervin R. Miller

Description:

"To film the story made famous by Walt Disney is a major assignment. Snow White, a pretty young miss, did her part exceedingly well. This is very important- she is with us for fifty-two minutes, and we are happy for our visit with her. The Seven Dwarfs are a collection of small fry and here the film had some of the problems of amateur actors. The picture is done to the sound track of Disney's Snow White. A story for young and old and, if we will look beyond some of the little things that could be better, a delightful bit of entertainment for all of us" PSA Journal, Nov. 1960, 40.

Filmmaker(s):

Charles J. Carbonaro

Description:

"Our man has been through a long, hard winter and with more snow on the way he goes to Florida. We visit many of the places and see and do the things vacationers like to do. We move from one interest to another and stay just long enough to like it. Our friend awakens from his Florida visit and sunburn, all from his over-long stay under the sun lamp. A delightful visit" PSA Journal, Nov. 1960, 40.


Aquatic Holiday

Date produced: 1960

Burano, the Rainbow Isle

Date produced: 1960

Filmmaker(s):

Esther S. Cooke

Description:

"Burano by the sea, fisherman mending their nets, life along and on the canal. A visit with times of old, fine embroidery, the cobbler, children quietly at play, the market, the village square and its grand architecture and bronze statuary. It is feeding time in the square for a zillion pigeons. Another gem of Esther's visits to Europe" PSA Journal, Nov. 1960, 41.


Catnap

Date produced: 1960

Filmmaker(s):

Description:

"Mother is tired and catnaps while junior is at play. Soon junior takes his teddy bear and goes exploring the park, highway, and railroad. There are automobiles and trains to spark anxious moments. When Mother awakens, the young man has returned from his venture. A dream, perhaps" PSA Journal, Nov. 1960, 41.


Crosses and Cod

Date produced: 1960

Filmmaker(s):

Gene Arneson

"In the land of the Gaspe Peninsula the people live by the sea, fishing for cod, cleaning and preparing these for market; sheep, wool, spinning, cloth weaving; and wood carvings. The wood carving center of Canada has many excellent carvings; works of art, creations of all sizes. A bird sanctuary three miles from the peninsula is a breeding ground for gannets. An unusual but happy visit with people and their daily affairs" PSA Journal, Nov. 1960, 41.


Disneyland

Date produced: 1960

Filmmaker(s):

Aaron L. Binekorb

Description:

"There are many things at Disneyland for the filmer and, of course, these must be filmed as they are. It is not every filmer who makes an interesting motion picture of a portion of this holiday land. Binekorb takes us on the water excursion and through the "back country and jungle." A picture to be enjoyed by all. The film was returned to the maker before a frame enlargement could be made" PSA Journal, Nov. 1960, 41.


Golden Week in Kyoto

Date produced: 1960

Filmmaker(s):

Oscar H. Horovitz

Description:

"This time Oscar visited Kyoto during cherry blossom time when all of the art activities are centered about the showy blossoms. Our filmer does take the time to do those not easy to get closeups of the children and grownups as they go about their daily chores. We visit the theatre to see the cherry blossom dance, a fitting symbol of Golden Week in Kyoto" PSA Journal, Nov. 1960, 42.

Date produced: 1960

Filmmaker(s):

Willard Stevens

Description:

Description:

"A man is shot, the gun is handed to an innocent lad who is promptly grabbed by a police officer. Rex Malloy is asked to defend the young man. Money is available to Rex if he will not defend the boy.
