	I don't remember the *name* of the film shown in the Science
class in Gremlins, but I fondly remember the series. It was a Bell Labs series,
with the Kindly Professor (called, I believe "The Professor" (surprise!)),
and the Young Brash Guy Who Asks Stupid Questions.
	They had a whole series of these things. Each was, as I remember
from 6th grade, about 1 hour long. I remember one on the human body,
and one on astronomy.
	They were OK, but lacked the riveting and timeless appeal
of, say, "The Tacoma Narrows Bridge Collapse".
