When I’m Old Enough, Goodbye 1962 (excerpts)

Hip, heavy handed and dramatic, this film shows that a young boy’s decision to quit school and get a job isn’t as liberating as he expected it to be. We digitized and uploaded this film from the A/V Geeks 16mm Archive. Email us at footage@avgeeks.com if you have questions about the footage and are interested […]

Talking to Your Teen About VD (ca. 1972)

This film tells parents that venereal disease is “not a crime, it’s a disease.” We see a group of teenagers tell us they don’t want to talk with their parents about their sex lives even though open communication could help prevent exposure to disease inter-spliced with scenes of a doctor explaining the facts about VD […]

Violence and Vandalism (1972)

TV actor Hugh O’Brian talks about the factors behind vandalism and actually talks about it as a political act – something other vandalism films shy away from. Unfortunately, showing kids gleefully trashing the school probably trumped the film’s anti-vandalism message. We digitized and uploaded this film from the A/V Geeks 16mm Archive. Email us at […]

Teeth (circa 1973)

“Teeth. Why not?” The American Dental Association gets hip and tries to appeal to the young teen generation with the film’s quick edits, a rock and roll soundtrack and hip slogans like “Avoid The Dental Gap” and “The In Thing With Dentists Is Keeping Teeth In”. While possibly connecting with the young audience, the film […]

Miracle Of Milk (1939)

A record of achievement in community development of a supplementary dairy industry.

Party’s Over (ca. 1977)

Part of a series “Jackson Junior High Series”, we see a teacher leading a discussion with his students about under-aged drinking and what they think about the drinking age should be. Then we see the kids at a party dealing with those very issues. The teacher was played by Richard Sanders a year before he […]

Lucy (ca. 1975)

Looks at the life of a 15-year-old mother who is trying to make a life for herself and her baby in a crowded apartment in the projects with her nine siblings. The message in this film is clear. If you do get pregnant from having premarital sex, there are options for the teenaged parents but […]

Facing Reality (1954)

Mike hides all his inadequacy and self-esteem issues by being negative about the upcoming school dance. Can this bizarre little film with its surreal imagery help us figure out how to get over such feelings? And the fact will the fact that his classmates know that he’s just insecure going to make them go any […]

Condoms : A Responsible Option (1985)

Made during the AIDS epidemic, this film lightheartedly tackles the issue of “safe sex”. It also demonstrates that popular safe sex slogan that if you have unprotected sex, you’ll be having sex with all of your partner’s previous partners. We like the film because of the assembly line footage of condoms being made and tested. […]

Case for Beer (ca 1970)

Fascinating training film made for convenience store employees on how to spot under-aged drinkers – not an easy task when most ID cards didn’t have a photo and could easily be modified. The interesting twist with this film is that the film stresses not to totally alienate the young customer as he or she will […]

Social Seminar Promotional Film (1972)

This short introduction to NIMH’s Social Seminar series gives insight to the difficulties facing teachers when addressing drug abuse among young people. These approaches were something that were completely forgotten in 1980s with the Just Say No and DARE anti-drug education programs. We digitized and uploaded this film from the A/V Geeks 16mm Archive. Email […]
