Movies

Calamity the Cow
Uncle Jim Lucas
The adventures of Calamity the cow, who is bought by a farmer for his children, stolen by rustlers, and eventually wins a prize for her part in ridding the area of a gang of cattle thieves.
The People at No. 19
Ken
Reported cases of sexually transmitted disease took a sharp rise during and after World War II, but as this film testifies, sexual license amongst soldiers on the frontline wasn't the sole cause.
