Hunters and Hounds: A 1930s Journey Through the Wild (silent)
This 1930s film documents the traditional methods of waterfowl and pheasant hunting in the United States, showcasing both the hunters and their loyal gundogs in action. The scenes highlight various aspects of the hunt, such as creating Scotchman’s decoys using ducks as lures, wading through bogs and rivers, and stalking prey in grassy fields. The film also captures the skill of trained hunting dogs, from retrieving downed birds to flushing prey for their owners. The dramatic visuals of ducks and pheasants in flight, the hunters’ precision, and the bond between man and dog make this a vivid depiction of early 20th-century hunting practices.
