  • it's awesome at 0:32 when the morse code (?) turns into a loon call

  • @lynnshell78 pound? okay.

  • @syntaxchick No, it was not an NFB film. The short animation to which you refer was part of an episode of a children's television show called "Curiosity Shop" which aired between 1971 and 1972. The show was a favorite of mine when I was a child and I remember the rock episode.

  • Fun!

  • Don't know if this is relevant or even a NFB film. In the 70s (in Ottawa) I saw an animated half hour (?) special on rocks. There was Uncle Ig-Ig-Igneus rock, S-s-sedimentary rock & Metamorphic. Done to a kid-friendly "rock music" background. One of the songs was "Way down low on rock bottom road". Has anyone heard of this? Know the title?  It was truly brilliant.

  • Thank you for posting. I loved watching the NFB movies while I was in junior high and high school. I later studied film production in college and I have always loved the NFB films. As lynshell78 notes, it truly does make you proud to to Canadian.

  • Just awesome
