Overview
Encyclopedia Britannica Films and Coronet Films made Chicago "the Hollywood of instructional film" - those films that taught you social mores. Local TV historian J. Fred MacDonald presents a selection of such films from his vast archive, including such gems as Studs Terkel playing a character giving boys dating advice, and a young Dick York ("Bewitched") portraying "Shy Guy" and the reckless driver in a film about "teenicide."
