| Description: | Trailer: PAPER POSSIBILITIES - SAVING PAPER Ministry of Information trailer urging people not to throw paper away. Pixillation of table walking across floor, dishes appearing on it as man sits there, and he stirs mustard into his porridge. Other incongruous activities follow: chef pours toothpaste in a stewpot, woman fills baby bottle with glue, woman grows flowers in a shoe. Narration in verse reminds us not to put waste paper in the rubbish, either. Man's hands smooth and fold a pile for collection. Closing title - 'Paper is still wanted for munitions don't put it in the dustbin keep it clean and dry and stack it for collection'. | |
