Dangling Participle

Made entirely from old classroom instructional films, “Dangling Participle” offers a wealth of practical advice on contemporary sexual hangups and where they come from. A collage of dating, anti-smoking, sex education, and family life films from the late 50s and early 60s, intent on convincing us that the surreal is “perfectly normal.”
