How to Sleep
How to Sleep is a short film by Robert Benchley. Filmed and released by MGM in 1935 (as part of their "Miniature" series), it features Benchley as a narrator as well as film subject, discussing four parts of sleep - causes, methods, avoiding sleep, and waking up. The early success of How to Sleep prompted MGM to rush two more short films featuring Benchley, How to Train a Dog, a spoof of dog-training techniques, and How to Behave, which lampooned etiquette norms. How to Sleep was named Best Short Subject at the 8th Academy Awards in 1935, while the latter two shorts were not as well received.
