  The Chow Hound 1944

  ★★★ Watched by Michael_Elliott 27 May 2022

  A bull signs up to help in the war and then he is served up as food where Private Snafu wastes him.

  THE CHOW HOUND is basically an education short telling soldiers that it's not good to eat too much or not eat enough and waste food. The animation itself was excellent and I must say that this bull character was the best in the series next to Snafu. It's really too bad he didn't make any other appearances unlike those malaria mosquitos. Overall this was a fun film and one of the best of the series.

  A LECTURE ON CAMOUGLAGE really needs no introduction as the title tells you what you're in for. For the most part this was a good entry for the series as there was some great animation on display as well as a couple funny jokes. We even get some female nudity at the end, which certainly isn't something normal for a movie from 1944.

  The dialogue, which has been a rod of controversy, is very well written and I think in the first half it's a lot of fun. Yes, we've…

  Something Good — Negro Kiss 1898

  ★★★★ Added by Michael_Elliott

  When the Library of Congress released their list of twenty-five films to be included in the National Film Registry there were many familiar titles and then there was this thirty-second film from 1898. If you're familiar with movies from this era or if you're familiar with the race movies that would gain popularity during the 1920s then you'll realize that this here is something special.

  The film has a black man and woman kissing, doing a dance and just smiling…
