'''''All in One''''' is an 11-minute [[1938 in film|1938]] [[sponsored film]] which compares [[dog]]s to the latest [[car]]s. It starts off with a [[sheep dog]], then talks about how dogs are man's best friend. It then has a group of kids building a go-kart with some dogs pulling it and then talks about the features of latest cars. It's actually an [[advertisement]] for [[Chevrolet]] and was produced by the [[Jam Handy Organization]].


''An American Revolution'' was released on the TV program ''[[Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve]]'' on the TV channel [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]].
