Poor old "Tweety" is happily sitting in it's cage, when in comes "Sylvester" who prepares for a small yellow snack! Then a benign orange cat arrives, just in the nick of time, and points out the error of his ways to our hungry antagonist. Then he suggests he visit him and his colleagues at "Birds Anonymous". This first meeting sees him regaled by of all sorts of reformed characters ruing their days of chasing their feather friends! Might "Sylvester" return home a changed cat? If so, can it last? What temptations might lie in his path? I enjoyed this tale of feline cold turkey and the animation of the increasingly frantic eyes and the bird-through-a-straw are really quite funny. Personally, I hated that bird too!

- The Pink Blueprint1966-05-25At a building site, the Pink Panther finds a blueprint for the construction of a generic home and replaces it with a pink-colored plan for an ultra-modern house. When the little man on the building site rejects the Pink Panther's pink blueprint and continues his original project, the panther decides to construct his preferred house on the same site, using the man's materials. The accident-prone Pink Panther sneezes a swarm of nails in the direction of the little man's backside and unleashes an out-of-control power saw that splits the man's ladder in two. The Pink Panther dyes his pink plan blue and slips it in the man's pocket, and the man then appears to unwittingly build the house to the Pink Panther's design. The carpenter has the last laugh, however, when the whole "fancy" front section of the house tips forward and falls on the ground, revealing the plain cape-style house that the carpenter had initially been attempting to build.More...

- Viikinki2022-09-27Documentary film about Tony Halme, masculinity and populism. The film follows how Tony Halme created a mythical, highly masculine freestyle wrestling character, The Viking, who gained fame both in the ring and in the public eye and eventually became captivated by it. With his brash speeches, Halme fired the starting shot for the rise of the Finns Party. The voice of a forgotten section of the population, a protest against the ruling elite, were the building blocks of Halme's popularity. Halme's great popularity has served as a good example of a populist figure, admired within the deep ranks of the nation, who comes from outside the political elite and changes the direction of politics. Also, despite - or perhaps because of - his openly racist statements, he was part of changing the political climate in Finland to a more acrimonious one.More...
