Featured review
Very Moving -- Good Earch Science Film for Teens
Saw this film once in the early 1970's (via 16mm projector--ah, the memories). I was in junior high school--40 years ago. I have never forgotten this films strong visuals and message. As case in point; I was at work today and someone said something about a turtle which instantly brought back a scene from the film.
I Googled around and found this single thread. Now, armed with the title, I'm going to try and buy it somehow. My wife teaches high school Biology and should really get her to show it to her students. Now that I'm thinking about this film, there are some other really great shorts from the 60's and 70's I'm remembering too. OK IMDb, let's see what we can find.
Thanks IMDb
