At a party, Donald Norman explains to comedian David Steinberg how memory and our ability to remember and call up memories work. Norman was Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of California San Diego. In a movie that lasts less than half an hour, he cannot, of course, cover everything; that's a semester's coursework. But it's a good start.

Learning aside, this short subject is interesting to me because several of the performers would soon have breakout roles that would make them well known. John Amos would appear in television in recurring roles and in movies. Peter Bonerz would appear on Bob Newhart's TV show regularly. He's still working as an actor and director. Uschi Digard would appear in several of Russ Meyers' movies.
