One of the pleasures of being willing to look at old movies, regardless of their provenance is that I am constantly learning something. In looking at this film, a 4-minute movie about Judge Ben Lindsey, and a couple more minutes of looking around the Internet, I learned about an interesting jurist who established an early juvenile court in Denver, Colorado, fought for election reform and wrote a a book urging trial marriage in the 1920s -- or, as the article termed it, "Companionate Marriage." Now, here we are, more than a hundred years later, these things accomplished in fact if not quite by legislation.
