Arts Resource: Video Archive

Hie thee tootsweet to the Internet Archive's movie cache-all for free downloads of public domain cinema and video classics like Reefer Madness, Night of the Living Dead, Duck and Cover and Charles Keating's Perversion for Profit. Plus old commercials, war documentaries, SIGGRAPH animation, TV talk shows, etc. Look for the brief, brilliant Pipe Dream ("...all instruments are played by steel balls shot out of PVC tubing") and Stop Driving Us Crazy! (Rusty, a spy from Mars, pays a visit to Earth and discovers how its inhabitants disrespect one another by driving poorly. The film espouses a Christian viewpoint on safety, arguing that "reckless driving is a sin." Great 1950s-style animation, plus a soundtrack by Benny Golson with Art Blakey and his Jazz Messengers!). <http://www.archive.org/movies/movies.php>
