Let the collie finish it, and don't linger on the stolen baby.
The review
A baby is stolen by a beggar. A collie follows her and brings the father. Cecil Hepworth, Britain, 1905. A child can watch it. I won't linger on the baby. The dog does the work, and on a short reel that is the part worth the minutes.
Prints wore out, so they filmed it again, because it was a hit and not because the story changed. If you want one of these early bits where somebody is actually brought home, take this and let the collie finish.

The glance
Piety and Republic are the thin ones.
Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
The Lion King
71 instead of 59
The Lion King is still a drama film, and it scores 71 instead of 59. What you gain is republic: A pride is a people.
