L'oro di Napoli? -----Original Message----- From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf Of ghand...@library.berkeley.edu Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2010 11:25 AM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: [Videolib] Collective help solicited...City movies
Hi all I'm in the process of putting together a videography on the cinematic city: http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/MRC/citysymphonies.html It's a mix of early city symphonies (e.g. Walther Ruttmann's Berlin) and later docu films in this style. It also has a short listing of fictional films that feature cities as prominent "actors" I need more of the latter. What I'm looking for are movies that feature cities as central parts of the narrative, as essential to the essence of the film (not just films that are shot in a particular location) What do you say? Take a look at the list and let me know what I'm missing. gary Gary Handman Director Media Resources Center Moffitt Library UC Berkeley 510-643-8566 ghand...@library.berkeley.edu http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/MRC "I have always preferred the reflection of life to life itself." --Francois Truffaut VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
