Description: | Light in Your Life, The EILENE JANSSEN -- "NANCY" Shows the parts of a light bulb and different types of bulbs. Animation illustrates how light is a part of business, industry, education and the home. Ken Smith sez: A cartoon professor named "J. Lumen Lightly" shows Nancy, a real live pig-tailed nine-year-old, the wonders of light bulbs. J. Lumen shoots beams out of his fingertips and uses a fluorescent bulb as a magic wand as he takes pop-eyed Nancy ("Hollywood child star" -- ES "one of the most talented youngsters to appear on any stage or screen" -- BS) into the sky and under the sea to demonstrate that electric lamps are as magical as any fairy tale. Better produced than A Case Of Spring Fever, but not as much fun. The black maid's dialogue at the beginning of this film is guaranteed to offend. 11:30:39:00 - 11:31:18:00 MCU young girl in pigtails sitting in a living room chair, blowing bubbles with gum, reading "Fairy Tales of the Ages" MS woman's legs as she walks into living room African American woman wearing maid's uniform and holding feather duster she walks over to little girl sitting in chair CU woman's hand tilting lamp over revealing 2 light bulbs, one burnt out MS woman (waist down) standing over girl, pointing duster at her girl continues reading, ignoring woman woman leaves room LA CU girl, blowing bubbles, looks o.s.
