Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Modern Motherhood is an exploitation film by Dwain Esper. Originally released in 1934, it would gain fame by being presented in the style of later road show filmmakers such as Kroger Babb and David F. Friedman, as it was presented around the country and typically featured a "Dynamic Sex Lecture" at each performance. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
