Too much of everything
Such a frustrating disappointment
Redundant and unnecessary.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Probably a better title for this little shortie would have been "Don't get Violent!". It's only natural to get angry, but as the film short shows, its all about how one handles the situation. The clothes and the cars are all clearly from the early 1950s, and the film itself is pretty dated. Lots of jumping rope and model airplanes. Pretty dated stuff. and is drawing a silly picture of someone you're mad at a good, healthy activity? Pretty similar to all the "How to...." films we actually did watch in grade school. Booooorrring. Produced by Milan Herzog , who had produced TONS of these little educational tidbits for Encyclopedia Britannica. There are only a few listed here on IMDb, so theoretically there is a whole treasure trove waiting to be discovered. Fortunately its all over in twelve short minutes. Pretty lame, but i guess its historically significant, for the kids' clothing and hobbies.
Angry adolescents are the focus of this eleven-minute educational film from the good folks at Encyclopedia Britannica. Susan is angry with sister Carol (not the one from the Barrington Levy song) about the way she cheated Priscilla out of a turn at jumping rope. Pete is angry at Paul because he reneged on a promise to fly model planes in favour of a game of baseball. How can we deal with feelings of anger, which (don't worry!) are perfectly normal? If you're a girl, you can talk it out, suck it up, and move on! If you're a boy, you can put on a pair of boxing gloves and beat the tar out of a punching bag! Remember, the important thing is to release our anger without hurting others. One things for certain: you'll gain a whole new perspective on teapots after watching this film.
