Punctuation: Stop That Period! Period That Stop. (1977)

The film humorously explores the world of punctuation, particularly focusing on the importance of periods, exclamation points, and question marks in writing. It presents a fictional “period room” where characters learn how to construct clear sentences using a two-part code: identification (subject) and information (predicate). The film emphasizes that correct punctuation helps avoid misunderstandings in communication, using examples of how missing periods can lead to confusion. It also distinguishes between different types of sentence endings and their appropriate uses.
