- This classic stars "Woody" from Dating Dos and Don'ts -- a few years older, but just as out of touch with reality. As "Jack," he goes through this entire film being unbelievably polite, but the weird leer on his face makes you wonder what he's really thinking. Don't miss the soda shop populated by waitresses in Hans Brinker costumes(!), or the montage of adults thinking approvingly of Jack's behavior.
Producer: Coronet Instructional Films
I love good manners, and love it when people have good manners!
I started watching these yesterday around midnight. Now I can't stop, why do i like this so much?
Pakunoda Because this is the world you have been denied. A utopia, to be sure.
David here, They show a world we will never see again!! I can’t watching too! Lol From Sebring Florida
I think the real challenge is learning how to deal with rude people, which they don't really show in this film. It's easy enough to be polite when everyone else is too, but that's not always the case. :/
Good and true point.
GingerGilligan if everyone followed this video there would be no rude people
No one on the phone, talking loud, being obnoxious, and everyone is well dressed. Rare to see these days.
There is always someone who caught the slow train from Philadelphia.
Believe it or not, but I have brought up my 12 yr old just like this...Why? because I was brought up exactly like this....His manners are beautiful and well polished....When he answers 'yes, sir' or 'yes, ma'am', you should hear the adult...When he holds a door open for either a man or woman, they do everything but kiss him. If MORE parents did this....Well, I do not have to describe it for you.....You know!!!
I liked how the students waited for the bell to ring BEFORE packing up their books as well as waiting for the dismissal from the instructor prior to standing up and leaving. Now middle school, high school, even in colleges, they disrespect the teachers and the their time by snapping books and laptops shut, and the zippers sounding on all of bags 5-10 to minutes before class is over!
I think these videos should be run on all stations for 1hr everyday for next 5years. Period
"You can be direct & brief on the phone." I love it! Great video, I wish more people watched this.
It's a shame that today politeness is just not practiced as it should. I view it as entitlement mentality. People feel they are owed something whether they have earned it or not. Just being nice to someone has its own reward, and it doesn't require any effort on your part.
Do you consider this comment to be 'polite'.
Sure, but we also don't have bratant homophobia, sexism and racism as they did back in those days.
I love the "always keep to the right" - the UK always keep to the left as we follow the driving side.
Manners are to society what balancing components is to tuning an engine.
I love these films and want to live in the world they paint.
Me too; I did when I was little! :) The people weren't perfect, but they were well mannered, and it certainly made for pleasant living conditions! It was a lot harder then to have a bad day. Almost all days were good ones! We should start a community! :)
Treat everyone you meet with kindness and respect. what you give out into the universe will come back to you .
Kind of like.....When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are.Anything your heart desires will come to you.
Swell! A Dutch soda shop! My culture reaches even into the world of Coronet. I'm so proud! Just look at those cool hats...
Proud to be one of the last of the chivalric knights! Fathers, train your sons up in the way they should go so that when older, they will not fail you! Mine certainly did. Chivalry is not dead!
LightWarrior Oh chivalry is DEAD. I killed it with an ice pick.
6:14 - And, girls, let the men help. They enjoy it."
I love this line because it's wonderfully true. These day chivalry really is dead. I just wish all those misandristic radical feminists would get the memo on decent behaviour and human interaction.
***** I'm 19; 20 in late July.
***** I'll try my best. Thank you.
HarryIsTheGamingGeek That language wasn't very polite!
8GrantRantsUnited8 Sorry.
I was just teasing :p
That's so true. Most of the advice given here isn't just about making yourself look good (although that is part of it too). It's about being considerate and thoughtful of others and not just living for yourself. Prior generations, whatever their faults, were generally much less selfish and more mature as individuals. It was a value then. I'm a man in my 30's and I've often wished that at least some of the good ideas and habits of that time were still around today.
I think manners are a thing of the past!!!Its nice to see a video that reminds me of those days!
The music at the beginning of this video is the original theme from the show "What's My Line?".
Not an earth-shattering revelation, but I thought it was a fun bit of trivia.
+feverspell Yes indeed it is. That's my faviouite show on TH-cam.
feverspell Hand me a cigarette, cuz I just came!
I wish I had been raised in this era. Life seemed so much more simple back then.
This was very nice. How the person acts reflect on the parents.
Holy crap. So different from today.
We need more Jacks
Yes and everyone says holy crap. Me too😁
My Mom use to have a Day Care and I can say; Not many. Some of the kids we're as old as 13 and had never sat at a table to eat, and so, they didn't know what table manners we're. The parents just didn't teach them anything! So we had to teach Table manners, sharing, hygiene... everything. I remember one kid, who was 10, who use to think it was OK to pee anywhere in the yard even with people watching. Safe to say, he learned some manners later on from us. His parents we're quite embarrassed!
Has anyone noticed that Jack is in almost everyone one of these videos.. he must have been one confused screwed up kid.
all these people look the same to me. i'm asian. i guess it works the other way around too.
JessicaTG2008 why? they're actors
+JessicaTG2008 That kid John Lindsay turned out fine, according to his IMDB he had a nice career directing porn in the 70's.
Literally. He had trouble getting a date to the carnival
This guy must have the worst luck in the history of ever
John Goodrich omg is that so? 😳
Thank you for such an invitation. Whether you are wealthy or poor; male or female; religious or agnostic; friend or foe, it is my honor and duty to treat and SERVE all humans beings with love, dignity, and honor. A gentleman pays for EVERYTHING! A gentleman is extremely confident and extremely humble. A gentleman protects the oppressed, even if it means he sacrifices his life. Finally, manners, marriage, love, and romance is about sacrifice and self-less service, without compromising values.
4:35 a lesson that should be forced down many throats. under any circumstances I pave way for others on the sidewalk. there are those 2-3 out of 30 people I pass on that do politely let me pass when moving with a large group. thank you rare human beings. may those inconsiderate lifeforms burn gradually in the depths of hell.
My mom always pulled me to the side until i got the message..
Chiefn hookah I always hate people who hog the sidewalk. When I jog, I just give way and run on the grass.
After all, I want a good workout. My pride isn't part of it.
I'm addicted to these videos! xD
We watched these in school ,even the teachers laughed. Most kids put there head on the desk and tried to sleep though it. Mostly, i think teachers were behind on grading tests, so the showed these, to catch up on work. Believe me i was there, we never acted like these kids in the movies .
They were talking about Queen Elizabeth's Coronation in class and she still is Queen today!!
Funny but so educational. They should show these in schools today.
omg the music.....and its for real...not like playing Sims or something. awesome.
I can hear the clatter of the old projector... it was such a break when the teacher had us pull the blinds down and turn out the lights, we really didn't care what topics they subjected us to!
I love these instructional films. A good solid point at the core (civility FTW!), yet just enough over the top to be charmingly goofy (oh no! My loose muffler is showing my bad manners!) Thanks for posting them, shaggylocks. You rock, my friend.
I work in schools and can confirm that most kids today are not raised to be polite. Parents need to teach their offspring to yield to an adult when they're trying to go by. Instead, they walk around you, behind you, and nearly run you over. They don't know any better. There are a few exceptions, but not many.
tubeblack35 Let me guess, you live in the ghetto?
To most youth we are just obstacles to go over or around. Adults are invisible to them......and the older you become the less they pay attention to you. Observe it and see.
Edward Gaines I lived in the country and no one had manners
I like this video, good manners always make a difference. In this video I like jack character.
2016 needs this
No, it doesn't. I'm not treating you any better than me just because your a female. If you hit me, I'll hit you back
Ms. Devonney,
Thank you for your reply. Husband and wives should never insult each other, privately or publicly! Unconditional love should be demonstrated, as much as humanly capable, at all times. While I admire and adhere to faith, exercise, nutrition, etiquette, great hygiene, and attention to the details of style, I realize I am not a perfect human being; therefore, I have compassion for faults in my brothers and sisters of this earth!
Cool video. Nice. The good old days.
That is one of the funniest video descriptions I've read!
Thank you shagglocks. You got yourself another subscriber.
Thank you for clearing up your comment. And I also say thanks for your reply. Yes I know it is hard to find someone special. But just stick to it and I am sure you will find the right guy.
This needs to be in every high school and Junior high school.
I agree.
I remember the teacher rolling in the projector and showing these sort of films! That was around 1988-1993! I doubt they do it now though.
The stock music cue heard at the beginning of this film {"Melody In Moccasins", by Wilfred Burns, performed by "Hans May & The Harmonic Orchestra"} was also used as the opening theme of "WHAT'S MY LINE?" from 1951 through '57...
This was made at my high school which has since been torn down. Made me sad because it was such a beautiful school (Niles East)
Lovely stuff.
I was in Chile recently and good manners still exist there especially on the buses. Men give up their seats to ladies, young and elderly and to pregnant women. And when you go to the bank or a place where you have to make a line and wait, the elderly and pregnant women always get to go to the front of the line, it is expected and it is done. Why don't they do that in the US?
leotran63 because feminism
because that is sexist
Yeah in Mexico people are also very polite and my mom was always so strict with being well mannered.
Poor countries are kinder.
Chiddy Bang!!
On Topic: This was a pleasant video.
Jack is a sweetie! Wish there were more people around like this.
I like it a lot. Thanks for sharing.
"Your Manners Are Showing!"
I think I wanna make that into a shirt.
5:15 "and no shoving or pushing" Just how much shoving and pushing usually goes on at bus stops?
I agree with you. I watch these videos and I'm sad that it isn't like that anymore. We are not as innocent as they were back then...maybe innocent isn't the right word but it seemed more wholesome, more kind and considerate than it is today. People seemed to care more bout others and themselves and seemed happier.
I think there are a few people who could do with watching this. I think it missed something though. I like to at least say goodbye to thank a bus driver when I get off, if the layout permits it. I think it's sad that people don't. These days they don't even wait for you to get off before pushing on.
Ali B I do it even if i take the middle door on the bus
I wish i could be like Jack. I fall so short when i see how he behaves.
Good manners seems to have been forgotten in this country. Even today this video has lessons to learn by us, we've all been guilty of being inconciderate at times.
that hat at the beginning of the video is really funny ,it looks like something out of a Halloween party hahaha.
+Mike Vloj is an obvious twerp. hahaha
I'm so going to say that now! "Your manners are showing!" lol
dignity, integrity, and class
oh the music in the beginning is called ''Melody In Moccasins'' its on itunes!
No one farting at the dinner table!!! That's swell!!😂
Fine boy,that Jack Connors.such good manners.
Yes. That theme was used at the beginning of What's My Line? back in the 50's.
Yes! Bring back etiquette and good manners!
Your manners are showing!
"There's Jack giving the teacher his best attention."
*I AM STARING INTO YOUR SOUL!*
"Good manners again."
This is one of the reasons why i love England. People there are very mannered. They threat you like a potential friend rather than potential enemy.
I totally agree with you!
This is why we have degradation of our society today.In addition to out of wed lock births and high divorce rates, absentee fathers and in some cases mothers,rampant drug addiction,soaring crime rates,a lot of American cities have been turned into third world like countries.I would take the 1950s any day over the the third world status that the U.S.A.has evolved into today.
How many parents these days teach their kids manners?
and then......feminism
I'm sorry but I disagree. Thank you for sharing your opinion though.
Don't forget all the non-white immigrants. They really caused the decline in public decency.
Completely agree jews seem to be at the center of most of our problems.
m1nt3a Obviously the first wave coincides with 19th amendment and the suffragist movement.
Ironically, each wave of feminism starts after the end of a war/conflict. Once the danger passes, women no longer need men to sacrifice themselves...
...so they start burning their bras. Until our new Islamic overlords show up!
Mythos EXACTLY! 😂
I wish I could live then.
but all those manners went out the window when Rosa Parks wanted to sit on the bus. 🐸🍵
Bangtanfantasy ! You godless heathen!
💀💀
Am I the only one who notices that everyone is praising Jack for being so polite but nobody says a word about his sister? Even the mother sings Jack's praises and completely passes up her daughter: "Jack is so kind and thoughtful. It's nice to have him come to breakfast dresses and cheerful." JEEZ!
Jack is so gorgeous AND nice...most men today are the opposite.
+Julie Erin Most men don't grow up and become porn directors either.
+Badum Tss Hang in there--you'll get that GED yet.
MrUhwoody lol! looks like he still has to complete that english course.
If all men were nice like the guy in the video, there wouldn't be any need for feminism.
and girls, let the men help, they enjoy it!
That's what happened in the world today- we STOPPED teaching manners. They used to teach etiquette and manners in school- but no more. I actually was taken aback by him holding the chair for his mother!! How resfreshing to see how they used to do it. I think we should bring these back into schools. Couldn't hurt anything right? Although with no "F" bombs or violence our kids wouldn't know what to think about this.
Poor girl didn't even have a name....even the mother said "Goodbye, Sis..." LOL at this stuff. I guess some people followed it, but plenty didn't. We could use a little courtesy today, but not the overblown version shown here.
You're that one that shoves and pushes and farts in the lift before getting out. You haven't shown courtesy or gone out of your way for anyone elsefor years and years!
As goofy as some people may think this is, it is a shame people don't use manners and good behavior with others anymore. I think it is one reason our society is in the shape it is in.
"...little did they know, Jack was constantly under the influence of the Devil Reefer- you guessed it- marijuana."
Great opening/closing music.
+Armpit Studios Yes, pretty cosmopolitan, and the same "canned music" used on the early, "What's My Line" TV Shows. Similar, but different music in, "Ozzie and Harriet" and the movie, "Terror in the Midnight Sun." I know all this because I'm seventy-one, jazz musician and first generation TV kid. Peace
+Jim Griffin Nice to meet you. No videos of you playing the sitar?
+Jim Griffin Yeah, I know, I watch a lot of Buzzr TV, I knew that sounded like the What's My LIne music and I thought I stumbled on the wrong video for a moment, LOL.
Yeah, it's funny what our mind's are programed to do… if I hear that one, I immediately expect to see a "Stopette- poof perspiration away" ad come on showing the "new" plastic bottle spraying powder
upwards….. don't think I'll ever know who wrote some of that canned music… some interests me as a musician, others, can't imagine anyone writing it…. Happy Holidays!
DON'T leave your books on the STAIRS!
some of this is a little formal but some of this is really needed. just everyday common courtesy. some of these ppl are so rude for no reason it makes me ill. they need to watch this video and really absorb it , no lie
My respect to you :"( wish more people agree against rudeness .
That sign was super big brother-ish.
Holy fuck, apart from the racism and outdated technology, I'm quite jealous of 1950's USA.
+nodinitiative You know nothing, and you are bound for hell because of it. What WILL you do, Dink?
+nodinitiative What about the constant fear that you'd die of a nuclear explosion?
We could die in a nuclear explosion today too, and were are closer to nuclear war today than in any time in the last probably 40 years.
Remeber this isn’t the 50-, it’s utopia and can’t exist.
They were doing something right back then. Crime was very low. Black neighborhoods were safe and people even left their doors unlocked. Black families were intact and strong. Kids respected their parents and obeyed the law. Yes, there was discrimination and it had to be corrected but the liberal mess left by a generation of social justice warriors has literally destroyed many formerly great American cities not to mention society as a whole. Thank you very much.....
May be this vid should be shown at schools and on home tv! There are very few people practising good manners these days!
I say Yeay! To good manners!
Any guy can hold the door open for me any time even if I ride a 900cc motorbike! I love good manners!
Manners are very special
I live in the South, and actually its not much different with our manners today as then. People are surprised at how well mannered we are. We just talk behind people's backs when they're not looking.
Gimme a malt! LOL
WOW! THat teachers hair looks like she left the roller in.
If I hear the word "manners" again ill scream!!!!!
At 4:48 the couple did not move aside so the lady passing was part on the grass
"Its helpful to give your name when you answer". That way your stalker knows that he's got the right number.
Wow, that's a lot of kids in one car. Very clowny!
Oka,y I checked on PLAY ZM, and it IS "Melody in Mossacins", "recorded in 1940s, heard on radio, commercially recorded", [see below]. Used IIRC on Gumby, though oddly not on Ren and Stimpy which also used Mr.Burns cues [no, Simpsonholics, not THAT Mr.Burns].
Ahh."Melody in Mossacins," great vintage library oiece.
^_^ i love these
If only people learned that it is okay to be polite. You don't have to bend over backwards to please people but, a simple "excuse me" or a "please" or a "thank you" show people that you care enough to be respectful. There is nothing wrong with being kind, it takes nothing away from you.
Fuck this! We're splitting the bill.
+WillieHandy79 lmao made my day
lol try telling people today to act this way, they would probably laugh in your face
This video and many others I have watched were produced by Coronet...is that the same Coronet that makes the bake ware? Love corporate America, even back in the day, they were saying..."see buy our product we care". lol
