The Hidden Wisdom

"The film is a visual poem about the unseen dimensions, 'wisdoms' of black women. Interweaving myth and documentary drama, the piece gives expression to the dreams and histories that are the legacy of black women. As film-makers coming from different cultural traditions - Afro-Caribbean and Latin American, we are interested in exploring themes and visions shared by these cultures, using conventional formats of film-making." - PD 16mm, black & white

The Yankee Doodle Mouse

As Tom and Jerry stage their typical fight sequences, the patriotic soldier theme of the title is evidenced by such things as a carton of eggs labeled "Hen Grenades"; Jerry dropping light bulbs from an airplane like bombs; and Jerry sending a telegram with the message "Sighted Cat - Sank Same." Musical phrasings from various patriotic war songs are heard throughout. The cut scene after Jerry hitting Tom with the board 4 times was cut from the 1950 reissue print for a war bond joke, and the original footage is currently considered "lost" due to the negatives destroyed in the 1978 George Eastman House fire.
