Outtakes From Unknown Film on Aging

Duration: 12:00

Year Published: 1971

Complete Record: A shot of a warm living room, full of elderly folk of different races. A nurse comes in and shows them a rat, has it play with the DOG, then lets each individual touch the rat, show-and-tell style. A different take/shot (possibly for a film) of the same setting, but now a bunny and guinea pig are being passed around. A box being shown (maybe has a snake or reptile?). More shots of the older folks with the animals, then a shot of the box that some of the smaller animals came in, with the words “The Berkeley Humane Society: Be Kind to Animals” on it. An interview with an older black man holding a small furry animal. This is a silent film.
