United States on the problems encoiiiitered and the resources that may be tai)ped in organizing and carrying forward a tihn council program. Also, the film should be particularly useful in stimulating discussion of the real ])urposes or functions of a film council, since the film presents four clear-cut examples of the actual using of films in community grou])s to inculcate ideas, bring out discussion, and stimulate real activity."

"This film will be especially useful not only to the
film council that is being planned but also to the
going film council to show what can be done. It is a
delightful film and will be enjoyed by all who see it."
Carl Milam
Director, Library Services, United Nations Member of the FCA Board of Trustees "I hope that Film and You will be seen by many Americans. Its particular value, I think, is that it presents the idea of using films and operating film councils not only logically but with some touches of emotion, if ])eople who see it are moved to do something about it, they can probably be persuaded without difficulty to do it in the .■\merican, not the Canadian, way."
Steimien M. Corey
Horace Mann Institute, Teachers College Columbia
University Member of the FCA Board of Trustees "Film and You is an excellent motion picture. It describes the activities of film councils in Canada. While some of the problems faced in getting councils started and working effectively in the United States are difi'erent, the situations here and there are in most respects the same. I hope Film and You will be widely used in the .States."
Arthur H. Motley
President, Parade Publication, New ]'orh City Member of the FCA Board of Trustees "Nothing sells so powerfully as a demonstration . . . particularly when it is both audible and visual. This powerful ])rinciple is efi"ectively em])loyed in the film Film and You, proving not only the importance of audio-visual teaching but demonstrating its effectiveness as well. And the fact that these are not actors but just ordinary farmers, merchants, laborers, and government officials carries a dej)th of conviction which a more finished product would not have. A film like this, widely shown, will do much to persuade many to use this type of communication for the transmission of important ideas."
