Description
A group of children film their own Western movie in View Park in Los Angeles. Two boys dressed in cowboy outfits struggle for toy guns on the sidewalk while a girl holding a baby doll watches. A boy dressed in knickerbockers and a sweater works a camera on a tripod, while a similarly dressed boy kneels on the ground and points to the guns.
