Hello, This question came in from a faculty member:
"I'm in need of suggestions for films on either 17th, 18th or 19th century U.S. social and political trends/movements. I am teaching Hofstadter's book on Anti-Intellectualism in my APT class (American Political Theory). We are reading Edwards, Finney, Godwin and Dewey along with the book. Do you know of any films on the Gilded Age (that don't "celebrate" self-made men), or revivalism, or reform/progressive era politics and social conditions? Any help is appreciated." Thanks in advance for any recommendations you might have!

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.
