★★★★ · BABY STOLEN FROM MOTHER · Spuzz · 2017-01-01

A very entertaining film abour how a newspaper story goes from story idea to print. In this case, A baby elephant arriving from India gets the treatment. Reporters at the airport! Pictures taken! Story written! Transferred to type! etc etc. Actually quite interesting and informative. Reccomended!
