Storyline
Featured review
A superb film explaining basic physics
I saw this in the fifth grade in 1965. What made me suddenly remember it? Who knows...but I watched it again last night, and it is still an excellent "hands on" demonstration and explanation of basic physics concepts that could not be duplicated in the classroom.
Would today's kids sit still long enough to watch this black-and-white film? I hope so, but I doubt it. No flashing colors, no music, no children participating, no dancing, no quick edits (when you watch, notice how long the camera shots are).
I could imagine Monty Python having a field day with this thing.
Highly recommended for any science kid you have in the household.
