Summary
NoS Summary - Staff of the Children’s Film Foundation help children to make a film; later the film "Bungala Boys" is shown at a children’s matinee.
Researcher Comments
Title on British Pathe online database reads "Children’s Cinema".
Commentary: But there’s all sorts of out-of-season colour. A film is being made by children for children, with the whole cinema industry co-operating to give the children special films that can reassure parents while they delight the kids. A visit to a typical Saturday morning film show for children makes this movingly clear.
