Our Mr. Sun

I hadn't seen this since Mrs. Jacobus's class in the sixth grade. It's so elegant, layered, clever, and wonderful. I wish that someone would make a modern equivalent of this kind of educational film. Thank you, Frank Capra, thank you, Dr. Research. You made me feel that science was wonderful and worth doing.
