[The Blaine Dunlap Collection - Outtakes from "Sunset on Film"]

This short film contains elements from a larger work, a student film titled "Sunset on Film" which documents activities at Sunset High School in the North Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas. The film opens with a close up of a lemon with the words "20th Century Lemon" written on it. The story begins with students arriving at school on bicycles, in cars, and by bus and includes interiors of the school, a girl posing with a lemon, and band practice with some fast-motion photography. The second portion of the film, titled "Instant Annual," juxtaposes close up images from a still group photograph with live action of girls dancing, a girl jumping in slow-motion, and a title card that reads, "Does Mrs. Ross Sleep with a Night Light?" The film ends with the Sunset High School marching band and drill team performing in a parade. Although credits indicate a soundtrack, none exists for this film.
