Fire
Fighters—cute, but a bit boring short silent film—has everything
necessary to make a good film, but falls flat in presentation. The young people
are good actors but there is no flare to the movie.
Storyline
Neighborhood
children foil a bootlegger.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Maybe.
This film works as an academic study, but fails to provide real entertainment
value. It would fail even the younger child.
