Hello everyone, Pardon the cross-posting (and any breach of rules) as I'm casting a pretty wide net on this one.
Julia Marchese made this really good film about the New Beverly Cinema in L.A. (pre-Tarantino ownership) and the need for theaters to be able to show 35mm. I normally don't dig docs like this but I really like this one. It's not yet available for purchase but maybe there are those on this list who would consider doing a collaborative film program with, say, your film department. The complete film can be previewed here: vimeo.com/101117027 Exhibition formats are 35mm, blu-ray, dvd, and DCP. And Julia is available to present the film in-person if her travel is funded (she's in L.A.). Please contact Julia directly with any questions and to arrange a screening: juliacmarch...@yahoo.com.

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.
