Bird Dogs (in the Ephemeral section of Open Video Project. Also, film #220 on Prelinger Archive). [Category: Industrial]

This silent film shows us how bird dogs are trained and hunted with. It’s actually a pretty interesting project and the dogs are cute and fun to watch. The first part of the film, which shows training, is more interesting than the second part, which focuses on hunting. Still, I enjoyed this film a lot more than I thought I would.

Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: **. Weirdness: ***. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ***.
