[Videolib] film genre series?

2011-05-27 Thread Rosen, Rhonda J.
I'm looking for something like the old Annenberg American Cinema series - Is 
there another series or a standalone  title that covers either a specific film 
genre or multiple genres?

I know about Moguls and Movies Stars, that just came out, but my professor 
wants more on the genre coverage.Romantic films, War films.
Anyone?

 You see, I don't believe that libraries should be drab places where people 
sit in silence, and that's been the main reason for our policy of employing 
wild animals as librarians.

*Hollywood, The Pioneers* which is about silent films is to my mind the
definitive doc on any genre of film but it is very long and alas not
released on DVD. Sadly I can't think of anything that comes close.
