Well, we didn't have class due to the blizzard that hit. So, I guess this will be about the pieces we saw on Monday. The Great Pumpkin Race...need I say more. That would have been a time to be a comedian. You could actually judge how funny something was going to be, just based on how far the actor or actors wanted to take the stunt. They had to have dragged a live donkey through a good portion of those situations. Even "stage magic" at that time was still pretty difficult. I wonder what PETA would have done if they remade that scene with the guy pulling on the donkey. Lead shoes...uh. Oh, and then there was A+B in Ontario. I thought it was an interesting idea. I like the idea of just filming everything and then just figuring it out later. I couldn't stop looking at the background in that film, it was definitely a window into the past. I also like when they are on the beach and all the people are laying on their towels and just in amazement over these two people filming each other on the beach. Today that would just be a normal scene, well, almost.
