This is called Land of
Little Sticks, 1945.

00:00:08.890 --> 00:00:11.140 align:middle line:84%
Where the wife is
scouring the frying

00:00:11.140 --> 00:00:15.970 align:middle line:84%
pan, and the husband is
leaning up against the barn.

00:00:15.970 --> 00:00:18.010 align:middle line:84%
Where the boy child
is pumping water

00:00:18.010 --> 00:00:23.020 align:middle line:84%
into a bucket, and the girl
is chasing a spotted dog.

00:00:23.020 --> 00:00:26.140 align:middle line:84%
And the sky churns
on the horizon.

00:00:26.140 --> 00:00:30.280 align:middle line:84%
A town by the name of
Pleasantville has disappeared.

00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:33.910 align:middle line:84%
And now the horses begin
to shift and whiny,

00:00:33.910 --> 00:00:38.230 align:middle line:84%
and the chickens roost, keep
looking this way and that.

00:00:38.230 --> 00:00:42.640 align:middle line:84%
At this moment, something
is not quite right.

00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:46.390 align:middle line:84%
The boy trundles through
the kitchen, spilling water.

00:00:46.390 --> 00:00:50.980 align:middle line:84%
His mother removes several pies
from the oven, shouts at him.

00:00:50.980 --> 00:00:55.240 align:middle line:84%
The girl child sits down by the
fence to stare at the horses.

00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:58.690 align:middle line:84%
And the man is just as
he was, eyes closed,

00:00:58.690 --> 00:01:03.870 align:middle line:84%
forehead against his forearm,
leaning up against the barn.

00:01:03.870 --> 00:01:07.292 align:middle line:90%
