"What Is Comedy?": My First Educational Film


Long forgotten and widely discredited, this 1951 classroom film from Medium Large's educational archives ("Bake Your Way to Marriage!" "How to Cripple a Bully" "Polio: God's Judgment Against Gays" ) exposes the chilling, horrifying, alarming truth about comedy in a fun, fact-filled format every student can enjoy.
