If You Don't Ask............ any fans/collectors of short films among us?

Some time ago I had a collection of short films, recorded from tv, on a videotape which I've since mislaid. There were three or four on there that I really want to see again. I've been going through youtube for a few months and was pleased to track down one of them, but one only. I've also typed plot details into Google but I can't put a date or title to any of them. Where would I go next?

If it helps, the plots were as follows:

1) Scandinavian film: a group of elderly men are out hiking when they hear a cry for help. They find a young girl hiker sinking in a marsh. Linking arms, they make a line out to her and pull her out. She thanks them all and trots off happily as they sink uncomplainingly into the marsh.

2) A silent film: A man and his son are dancing balletically on a hillside. As they continue, the son grows gradually older. Eventually the now-teenage son sprouts wings and flies away as his dad watches him go.

3) An attractive young lady is running away from some police officers. With the fuzz is an old man, who repeatedly calls to her to stop, wait. They chase her into a large shop, and the old guy is shouting something like "Lucy, you need help". Eventually she runs into a changing room and locks it. Sitting next to her is an old lady. Then we realise that she's sitting by a mirror, and she's the old dear.

I've found some belters while I've been looking for these. I think this is probably the best, in a competitive field:

Any help will be gratefully received.
