The only thing more boring than watching a slide presentation is watching a movie of a slide presentation. This 1962 education short by Curtis Avery provides this amazingly dull (and mercifully brief) experience, but also has some redeeming qualities. The introductory segment is laughably stilted. In the 1960s standard-issue family of Father, Mother, Daughter, and Son, only the boy seems to be able to act. But once you get past the family and classroom slide show segments, the animated instructional film within this short movie is actually rather informative, although some of the details are a bit dated.
