Problems Solved


Life sure is full of tough questions. Say, am I trustworthy? What makes a good party? Am I ready to start going steady? What is Communism? Is bacteria my friend or foe? And what about juvenile delinquency? The answers are not always easy to come by. Thankfully the fine folks at Coronet Films are ready to help. You’ll soon discover that today isn’t all that different from yesterday, circa 1950. Well, not too different. I’ve never taken a date to a taffy pull, but it might be time to try something new.

Here are a few of Coronet’s finest, including a link to the rest here.

What To Do On A Date (1950)
Shy Guy (1947)
Dating:Do's and Don'ts (1949)
What Makes A Good Party? (1950)
Going Steady? (1951)

In all seriousness, The Internet Archive is an invaluable resource for not only old, now public domain, gems such as these. With tons to explore, you’ll be glad you did. Inspiration and nostalgia have never coupled so well. I wonder if they’ve watched Coronet’s Film titled How Much Affection?
