Al Sens
George Geertsen, Pat Burns
A tale of intolerance and where it all ends, told in an animated cartoon about a king and his kingdom, and bigotry that had its day. The illustrations and dialogue are light and amusing, but that does not mask the moral of the story: that unless we tolerate individual differences--even the king's nervous twitch--peace may only come when all are behind bars.

La Bastringue Madame Bolduc
George Geertsen
In English Canada, Madame Bolduc is virtually unknown, but her folk singing put a kick in the step of French Canadians throughout Quebec and parts of New England in the 1930s. Among her most popular songs was La Bastringue, illustrated in this lively animated film.
