Description of Classic Appalachian Culture Films DVD: 1950s Appalachian Mountain Daily Life, Culture, Music, Food, People, & Schools History Pictures Films

This compilation documents daily life in the Appalachia mountain regions of North Carolina and Tennessee during the 1950s. Topics include mountain life, culture, food, bluegrass music, education, and farming. Table Of Contents: (1) The Children Must Learn (1940) - This propaganda film presents the argument that children growing up and living in Appalachia, or any rural community for that matter, will end up uneducated and malnourished. The film is filled with hierarchal undertones and refers to the "simple life" as poverty. Despite its skewed vision, this film does contain wonderful documentary footage of the daily lives of mountain residents and does encourage better farming practices through education, which gives the film a little piece of credibility - 13 Minutes (2) Southern Highlanders (1947) - This is an amazing historical documentary about the mountain culture of the residents of the Great Smokey Mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. This cultural exploration film documents daily life in the mountains as well as arts and crafts, foods, music, farming, and culture. This film was sponsored by the Ford Motors Company - 15 Minutes
