Take Time To Live
ON PREVIEW TAPE 991537 ZZ "Hasty Horace" is featured as the typical in-a-hurry individual who rushes through breakfast, to the bus stop, to the job, and who repeats the sequence at quitting time. All the wear and tear could be avoided through revising the time schedule to get up earlier, etc. Film points out that 9 of every 10 accidents which occur in the home and on the street are due to hurrying. The film contains good footage of 1950s parking lots and has a scene where Horace clears the steps at his home of a tricycle and toys--a sequence which appears in several films of this era. While addressing the matter of taking your time to live, Horace is shown lighting a cigarette--which is not recognized as a health hazard in films of this era. Good and humorous fast-motion scene of Horace going to work. (great shot at end with man in bathroom looking at himself in mirror, making funny and weird faces, just hysterical, just great! Also shot of him reading to his daughter.) funny, wacky, humorous, goofy, accidents, domestic. -note: lots of this footage could be used as 50s homelife, work, street shots etc...)
