| Description: | Industry. Social Services. Lord Roberts' Workshop Memorial Home. Opens w/ MS 2 men workers behind table; all pouring something into molds. In front of them on table are a few parts of dolls. GV room full of women workers sitting at tables; big trays of doll parts for assembly; they pick up heads and try to force them onto bodies; etc. Strange. But nothing compared to the next shot; at 01.23.56.05: man in white coat stands next to table; on table is a large board on which 4 types of doll parts are attached; all in the proper places but not quite touching- -the head floating an inch or two above the neck; the arms separated in pieces like bones w/o connecting fibers etc. The man looks in boxes on the table and brings out a complete doll which he holds up. Bizarre and spooky/scary/etc. Adding to the effect is the man's rather sick looking expression. 01.24.03.03 CU man in white coat and tie; weaving seat of straight backed chair. Next; CU man (in silhouette) operating large circular saw for lumber. Pan across carpentry workshop w/ student or apprentice carpenters working at tall tables; stacks of boards in BG. Skilled labor; crafts; toys; factory | |
