Thought I’d pass this one on to the collective wisdom of the video-
lib group. I have a faculty member looking for film suggestions on
the following topic:
Subject: Cold War/Atomic History
Is anyone aware of a good 1-2 hour film on early Cold War history and
politics? I’d like to give my ILA [i.e., freshman seminar] class
some more insight on the tensions surrounding the late 40’s and early
50’s. I’d also be open to popular films which really come out of
the fear of communism and soviet aggression.
Thanks in advance!
Rick

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.
